This recipe was originally going to have chicken in it, to make it different from a traditional Nicoise salad. But alas, the forgetful grocery shopper strikes again. It doesn't matter how detailed my list is when I go to the supermarket---I will always forget something. I'm usually able to get my husband to pick it… Continue reading Simple Nicoise Salad

Shrimp Scampi Spaghetti Squash
That's a lot of alliteration right there in the title. Shrimp. Scampi. Spaghetti. Squash. I swear it was unintentional. It just happened. I just had a spaghetti squash ready to go the other day and shrimp scampi sounded like the perfect meal to make with it. I love that buttery, garlicky dish. It's so rich… Continue reading Shrimp Scampi Spaghetti Squash

My mom always uses catfish nuggets to make fried catfish, and now I can see why. I bought nearly 3.5 pounds of catfish for less than… Continue reading Quick & Easy Catfish Wraps
Gulf Coast Cobb Salad
Happy 4th of July! This is the 10th holiday in a row I've had to work. I'm not complaining, though. Not only do I get holiday pay (yipee!) but I'm not really a fan of smaller holidays like this one. I'll soak in the fireworks and patriotism in my drive home tonight---I don't need a… Continue reading Gulf Coast Cobb Salad
