There's nothing like a good ol' breakfast casserole to kickstart your day. Breakfast casseroles are usually relegated to the holidays, but I'm not one to stick with tradition. I love to make them on Sundays and then eat the leftovers throughout the rest of the week. You end up getting plenty of hearty breakfast to… Continue reading Cheesy Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole

Italian Sausage Soup
I like to get fresh vegetables whenever I can, but here lately my grocery store has been out of a lot of them. Things as basic as cucumbers, bell peppers, and zucchini have been in scarce supply. It's not like I live in Alaska, either. I live smack dab in the middle of the country,… Continue reading Italian Sausage Soup
Sausage & Pepper Wontons
I was gifted a few cookbooks the other day and I immediately set out to cook something from inside of them. A few things in an air-fryer centric cookbook caught my eye and almost all of them were wontons/potstickers. I have long been cooking wontons in my air fryer (my favorite are the Bibigo chicken… Continue reading Sausage & Pepper Wontons
Cajun Alfredo Spaghetti Squash
I like to try different sauces. I guess you could call me a sauce queen. I have dozens of different sauces stashed in my pantry, fridge, and secondary cabinet. I'm a big fan of sauce that Trader Joe's offers. I'll try anything at least once. So when I saw a jar of Cajun Alfredo the… Continue reading Cajun Alfredo Spaghetti Squash
Hawaiian Dogs
There's something special about a family-owned meat company here in Oklahoma City. Schwab Meat Co. has been around since the late 1800's, and has been in OKC at the same location since 1912. The company was started by a German immigrant named George Schwab who had a knack for making sausage. He brought his cherished… Continue reading Hawaiian Dogs
St. Patrick’s Day Bangers & Mash with Stout Onion Gravy
I had my first swig of Guinness this weekend. Can you believe it? I've spent 32 years on this planet with a very Irish name and never had a drop of Guinness. The verdict? It's some, ahem, potent beer. It's not really my cup of tea. I like my beers light, refreshing, and almost like soda. Guinness… Continue reading St. Patrick’s Day Bangers & Mash with Stout Onion Gravy
Italian Sausage Saute with Garlic Parmesan Polenta
I had forgotten how much I love polenta. It's like this wonderfully homey corn cake that goes so well with any kind of pasta sauce you can put on top of it. I couldn't find the tube stuff at the grocery store the other day (it's a guilty pleasure of mine, I'm sorry for all… Continue reading Italian Sausage Saute with Garlic Parmesan Polenta
Cowboy Stew
The polar vortex is officially in Oklahoma. Yesterday the entire state was one gigantic skating rink. Today, the ice is a little bit better, but it's about 18 degrees right now with wind chills hovering right around zero. This is NOT my favorite type of weather. It's going to be a long, cold next few… Continue reading Cowboy Stew
Mini Breakfast Pizzas
You're hustling and bustling and trying to get all of your Christmas shopping done before next Friday. There's a ton of work left to do: decorations, wrapping, planning the big feast. Ain't nobody got time to worry about what's for breakfast, right? My family always keeps it simple on Christmas morning. We usually prep a… Continue reading Mini Breakfast Pizzas
Sausage and Peppers Breakfast Sandwich
I'm finally getting around to uploading recipes on my spare SD card, and in the midst of doing that I've found pictures I took of our mega ice storm from a few weeks ago. The ice storm DESTROYED a ton of our trees and we're still picking up the pieces to this day. It's going… Continue reading Sausage and Peppers Breakfast Sandwich
