It's been a rough week. It may be y'alls Thursday, but technically it feels like Friday for me. While everybody was off barbecuing on the Labor Day weekend, I was at work. I hate when I add an extra day to my work week because I feel thrown off the entire week. I keep thinking… Continue reading Greek Turkey Burgers

Turkey & Black Bean Tamale Pie
You ever have these grandiose ideas for dinner, sit down to cook it up, and then it turns out nothing like you had envisioned? That was me cooking this tamale pie recipe. The first problem: I didn't make enough of the "tamale" mixture to cover the top. My second problem: I didn't season my "tamale"… Continue reading Turkey & Black Bean Tamale Pie
Thai Turkey Salad
There's one weird quirk about me and food. I can't eat anything that's blue. I mean unusually blue---I'm not talking about blueberries or blue crab. I'm talking neon-blue-ish. Remember many moons ago when Heinz released blue, green and purple ketchups? I couldn't bring myself to eat the stuff, even if it did taste exactly like… Continue reading Thai Turkey Salad
Baked Mushroom Chicken & Rice
Mondays. Ugh, Mondays. Like an itch you just can't shake, Mondays always hang over you. You know they're coming, you know they'll never go away, and yet every week by Friday you forget their existence. And then BAM! Sunday night rolls around and Monday is coming for you. I slept horribly last night, waking up… Continue reading Baked Mushroom Chicken & Rice
Chicken Piccata Stir Fry
Let's talk about fruit baskets. Mine is getting a little out of control. What should be housing bananas and oranges inside it's wirey bowl, is loaded with avocados, whole wheat pitas, and tortillas. Two of those things are not like the other! My fruit basket has gotten so out of hand, I forgot I had… Continue reading Chicken Piccata Stir Fry
Turkey & Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie
I've been on this kick lately of eating comfort foods. Filling casseroles, meat and potatoes, and barbecue. Maybe it's because I know those meals won't be appetizing once summer rolls around, or maybe it's just a random craving I've been experiencing. Who knows. I've really started to enjoy shepherd's pie for dinner, though. I made… Continue reading Turkey & Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie
Turkey Tortellini Tetrazzini
Merry Christmas, y'all! I hope you're having a great Christmas day. Rob and I both had to work, but we've made the most of it. It definitely helps that are coworkers are like a second family to us, too. Working in television on a holidy is both mind-numbingly boring and crazed at the same time.… Continue reading Turkey Tortellini Tetrazzini
Thanksgiving Turkey Pot Pie
One of the best parts of the holidays is all the leftovers. You can eat for days on turkey, stuffing and potatoes. I've always held the cold turkey & mayonnaise sandwich near and dear to my heart. My mom is good at transforming leftovers. One of my fondest childhood foods was what she called "potato… Continue reading Thanksgiving Turkey Pot Pie
Cran-Apple Turkey Skillet
Of all the the fall things I love the most, I think apples are number one in my book. Nothing screams autumn like a cup of hot apple cider. Or a freshly baked Dutch apple pie. Or a caramel apple with peanuts on top from the Oklahoma State Fair. I know Thanksgiving still feels like… Continue reading Cran-Apple Turkey Skillet
Roasted Veggie & Turkey Tortellini
The last few day of summer are waning. The heat has come back to Oklahoma with a vengeance. Late summer fare of corn, peaches, and Hatch green chiles flood the grocery store produce section. What have I been doing to celebrate summer's upcoming slumber? Decorating my apartment with all things fall. I actually waited a… Continue reading Roasted Veggie & Turkey Tortellini
