I'm trying to get back into the habit of incorporating more vegetarian/vegan meals into my diet. I did this a few years ago, but somehow got off track. It's a great way to save some money (especially during this time of heightened food/protein prices) and to dabble in the vegetarian/vegan world without being fully immersed.… Continue reading Vegetarian Fajita Salad

Fully Loaded Chicken Tostadas
Everybody loves tacos. Tacos have one day of the week dedicated to them. There are a dozen different restaurants in Oklahoma City that serve solely tacos. People would give up everything in life just to eat tacos. Well, I'm here today to enlist you to join Club Tostada. I know nothing will ever topple tacos… Continue reading Fully Loaded Chicken Tostadas
Mexican Cabbage Roll Soup
Soup's on in the Welcher household. Too bad it's 60 degrees outside. Our soup weather lingers somewhere between two days and a week, usually in January or February. Sure, we'll get cold for a few days after that---but nothing like normal winter forecasts for people living north of the Mason-Dixon line. I'll still eat a… Continue reading Mexican Cabbage Roll Soup
Taco & Pepper Jack Stuffed Bell Peppers
My week of "stuffed" meals continues today. I swear, this was completely inadvertent. I didn't intentionally plan to make a week of stuffed foods, it just happened. All the recipes I researched and thought of before I went grocery shopping last week just happened to be a stuffed version of something or other. But hey,… Continue reading Taco & Pepper Jack Stuffed Bell Peppers

My breakfast routine has stayed the same for about a year and a half now. I eat a sandwich with egg, Canadian bacon, and cheese that I make in a little breakfast sandwich maker. For a year and a half, that's the first thing I ate to kick start my day. I finally got burned… Continue reading Spinach & Pepper Breakfast Sandwiches
California Cobb Salad
We had to dog sit this past week for our coworker. It's been over three years since I've owned an animal, and after dog-sitting, I feel compelled to have a dog now! Blizzard was the best, company-wise. She was super good, knew tricks, very laid back and wonderfully soft. I know most dogs aren't this… Continue reading California Cobb Salad
BBQ Chicken & Cheesy Chile Grits
One of the things I love most about my job is travelling to small town America. There are a lot of those tiny podunk towns in Oklahoma that reek of character and history. I love it. Driving all over the state is definitely a big part of my job, but storm chasing plays an even… Continue reading BBQ Chicken & Cheesy Chile Grits
Salmon Quesadillas with Apple Pico de Gallo
Ok. I know salmon and quesadilla aren't normally two words you would find together in the same sentence. I get it. It's strange. It's something....different. Something odd. I had a vision, an intriguing vision, and I had to go for it. There's fish tacos and shrimp quesadillas in this world, so why can't there be… Continue reading Salmon Quesadillas with Apple Pico de Gallo
