Maple Pork Sheet Pan Dinner
Of all the squashes in the world, delicata squash has to be my favorite. It's slightly sweet, slightly nutty, and the perfect ingredient for a fall dinner. It's so great you don't even have to peel it. I always eat the squash skin and all. If you can find delicata at your grocery store, I… Continue reading Maple Pork Sheet Pan Dinner
Mashed Potato Squash
I'm constantly in awe of all the foods out there that I do not know. I feel like my taste is very expansive. I've tried so many new, different foods over the years. Living in a "big" city definitely helps. So does being adventurous. Since moving to OKC ten years ago, I've tried lotus root,… Continue reading Mashed Potato Squash
Chicken Alfredo Tortellini Salad
If you have a pasta salad recipe, chances are I've tried it. I'm one of those people who makes pasta salads like a fiend every summer. It's so refreshing to either eat by itself or to serve it with burgers and barbecue. It's my go-to cookout side dish and my ride-or-die lunch at work. Imagine… Continue reading Chicken Alfredo Tortellini Salad
French Onion Chicken Casserole
This year I planted a vegetable garden for the first time. I bought a simple, self-watering garden box from Costco and then loaded up on seeds and soil.

I love a good roasted vegetable dish, so I'm all in when it comes to winter veg. One thing I love to eat this… Continue reading Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Kale Salad
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
Classic Squash Casserole
Summer produce is at its peak right now. Mid-August is the best time to buy tomatoes, watermelon, peppers, peaches and squash. The farmer's market was packed full of produce when we went this weekend. I love perusing the booths for the best of summer's harvest. Soon, the booths will close up shop and the produce… Continue reading Classic Squash Casserole
Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
I discovered the strangest thing in my spaghetti squash this weekend. The seeds had sprouted inside of the squash! I had never seen anything like that. How could they sprout with any sunlight? They were locked in tight inside that spaghetti squash flesh! I planted a few outside my laundry room door to see if… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash

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
