I like making big batches of food whenever I get the chance. Since I mealprep on Sundays, that's easy to do. Meal prepping is all about cooking in big batches and divvying it up throughout the week. Casseroles, sheetpan meals, and skillet dinners are perfect for it. Then, there's meal prepping salads. You can't really… Continue reading Southwestern Chicken Salad

Jambalaya Stuffed Peppers
Happy Mardi Gras! Every year I try to remember to make some Cajun food for the holiday and every year I forget. Not this year! We went all out this weekend with boudin and King Cake. I even picked up a giant andouille sausage to have for today. I know those aren't the classiest Cajun… Continue reading Jambalaya Stuffed Peppers
Thai Salmon Stir Fry
I've been hoarding all of these keto ideas and recipes and I'm finally getting around to posting them. Anytime inspiration strikes, I jot it down in my notes on my phone. I'll be laying in bed, about to fall asleep, when I'll think of something like, oh what if I make sloppy joe's but with… Continue reading Thai Salmon Stir Fry
Cajun Catfish Salad
There's been a half-full bag of frozen catfish lounging in the back of my freezer for a few weeks now. I've been desperately trying to figure out what to do with it, but my mind kept drawing a blank. The only thing I could think of was to make fried catfish...I know, boring. There had… Continue reading Cajun Catfish Salad

There's something magical about today. We're on the cusp of our first major cold front since March, and all is calm right now. The trees are still, the sun is shining, and I haven't heard a bird chirp all morning. It's like they know cold weather is coming. It's officially, officially my favorite time of… Continue reading Low Carb Breakfast Hash
Chicken Fajita Casserole
I think I've made just about every fajita under the sun. I've done sheet pan baked fajitas, salmon fajitas, fajita salads, fajita kebabs...what else is left that I can tackle?! The answer to that question: a casserole. Casseroles are hands down my favorite (and my husband makes fun of me for it). They're the easiest,… Continue reading Chicken Fajita Casserole
Sheet Pan Salmon Fajitas
Fajitas are a way of life. Growing up, I knew it was going to be a good end to the day if my mom was cooking up a batch of fajitas for dinner. A sizzling hot plate of chicken fajitas with crispy peppers, onions and mushrooms was always a great dinner to be had in… Continue reading Sheet Pan Salmon Fajitas
Slow Cooker Greek Chicken
It's been a while since I've whipped out my slow cooker. I tend to use it frequently in the winter months. When things start warming up, you're more likely to find me making salads, sandwiches and skillet meals. That's not to say I shove my slow cooker to the back shelf and forget about it… Continue reading Slow Cooker Greek Chicken
Spinach Artichoke Dip Chicken Skillet
I feel like when you're doing a specialty diet, you're bound to run out of options when it comes to meals. Sometimes it takes a few months. Sometimes a year. There's only so much you can do with the small amount of food groups you're given, you know? I find myself struggling to come up… Continue reading Spinach Artichoke Dip Chicken Skillet
Sausage Stuffed Peppers
If you've got a bell pepper, I'll find a way to stuff it. Bell peppers are pretty much my favorite vehicle to stuff food inside. Buffalo chicken, balsamic chicken, taco meat, whatever---I'll constantly find a way to make something new with them. A few things I've found while perfecting the art of stuffed peppers: Use… Continue reading Sausage Stuffed Peppers
