It's going to be a hot one here today. We're almost going to reach 100 degrees. That's unheard of for this time of year. We should be watching the leaves change colors while cozied up under a chunky-knit sweater. I should be able to sip hot cocoa outside on my porch wrapped up in a… Continue reading Black Bean and Turkey Soup

Summer Sausage Skillet Dinner
The changing of the seasons makes me long for the previous one. I love fall, don't get me wrong, but when it really turns into fall I start to miss summer. Just like when it turns into winter I miss fall. In the spring, I find myself yearning for snow. Summer, I miss those springtime… Continue reading Summer Sausage Skillet Dinner
Quarantine Cuisine: 20 Recipes for a Memorial Day in Lockdown
Let's face it: this Memorial Day weekend will not be like any we've had before. Sure, it's the first signal of summer, but kids have been home for the last 3 months. Summer seems like it started in March this year because of the pandemic. Not only that, but you can rule out any large… Continue reading Quarantine Cuisine: 20 Recipes for a Memorial Day in Lockdown
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
Sausage and Cauliflower Sheetpan Dinner
Has there ever been a greater glow-up than cauliflower over the last 5 years? Talk about a transformation. From broccoli's pale brother to star of most meals: cauliflower is the true Ugly Duckling in society today. I can't go one meal without incorporating it somehow. Riced cauliflower has been a huge part of my diet… Continue reading Sausage and Cauliflower Sheetpan Dinner
German Sausage Skillet Dinner
If there's one thing I miss on this planet, it's my Uncle Curtis' German sausage. He used to make the coiled, grey, pepper-flecked sausage all the time. My grandma would fry it up and serve it with mustard for breakfast. It sort of looked like knockwurst; it was a light grey color with a mild… Continue reading German Sausage Skillet Dinner
Sausage & Apple Hash
The fall and winter vibes are hitting hard in my house. I feel like I'm constantly chopping apples, sipping pumpkin spice coffee, or washing my hands with peppermint-scented soap. I love this time of year. It's both Christmasy and Fall-y and beautiful and cool. I wish every month of the year could be like this.… Continue reading Sausage & Apple Hash
Creamy Gnocchi & Sausage Skillet
There's a chance, albeit a brief, fleeting chance...that OKC gets its FIRST SNOW today! We'll get a trace amount. It probably won't stick to the ground. But I AM LIVING FOR IT. I've been beaming ear-to-ear since Monday. The clouds haven't stopped blanketing the sky since then, and it's been cold, drizzly and dreary...but THIS… Continue reading Creamy Gnocchi & Sausage Skillet
Sausage, White Bean & Spinach Soup
A simple road trip can never be simple in my family. After two decades of traversing all over the West and Southeast with my parents, I've used a bit of that nostalgia when it comes to doing road trips with my husband. I'll plot scenic detours and edible destinations along the way. I'll research the… Continue reading Sausage, White Bean & Spinach Soup
Artichoke & Chicken Sausage Quiche
...well, it's sort of a quiche. There's no crust. Does that mean it's not a quiche? What precisely defines a quiche? I'd like to think that definition includes a creamy egg bake inside of a pie pan. If that's the case this most definitely is a quiche. One of my favorite thinks to cook is… Continue reading Artichoke & Chicken Sausage Quiche
