One of the first restaurants I ate at after moving to Oklahoma City in 2012 was Texadelphia. There was once a few different locations of Texadelphia in OKC, but now there is only one left in Bricktown. That's the one I went to when I first moved here. Texadelphia is a Philly cheesesteak place with… Continue reading Turkey & Pinto Bean Salad with Salsa Ranch

Roasted Mushroom Tacos with Corn Salsa
I've been trying to eat more vegetarian/vegan meals since meat prices are so high right now. So far, I've stuck to one meatless meal a week. This week I made tacos with all veggies and it was phenomenal. Mushrooms have always been my favorite and they're the perfect meat replacement, especially if cooked correctly. Portobello… Continue reading Roasted Mushroom Tacos with Corn Salsa
Baked Taco Pinwheels
I meal prep lunches for my husband for the week every Sunday. Sometimes he'll get two meals to choose from, other times I just make one for the whole week. It's getting harder and harder to come up with new things to make him, though. I've done burrito bowls and chicken and rice a thousand… Continue reading Baked Taco Pinwheels
Turkey Taco Quinoa Skillet
You ever feel queasy after getting your blood drawn? It happens to me every. Single. Time. I can look at someone else's blood no problem. But as soon as I see my own blood outside of my body, all bets are off. I'm getting light-headed just writing about it now. I had my yearly physical… Continue reading Turkey Taco Quinoa Skillet
Chopped Chicken Taco Salad
I've made at least a dozen different versions of taco salad in my life. My all-time favorite version is a classic: meat, ranch-style beans, lettuce, cheese, tortilla chips and Catalina dressing. It's not really the most healthy salad on the planet, but it sure is good. I've made a nice turkey version before with mini… Continue reading Chopped Chicken Taco Salad
Taco Mac
You've heard of Chili Mac before, but what about TACO MAC??? Honestly, it's pretty much the same thing but with a slightly different flavor profile. You use taco seasoning (which usually DOES include chili powder) and that's what makes this Mac different from Chili Mac. If you really want to make things more taco-fied, before… Continue reading Taco Mac
Spicy Chicken Tacos with Southwestern Succotash
It was this time of year two years ago that my husband and I went on a road trip to New Mexico. I had been to New Mexico several different times before then, but I really fell in love with it on that 2019 trip. It's such an enchanting place, with its desert & mountain… Continue reading Spicy Chicken Tacos with Southwestern Succotash
Taco Lentil Soup
We had a great deal of snow fall this past weekend. Oklahoma is starting to look like most northern states this winter instead of what it usually looks like: a dry an barren wasteland. I froze my tush off and sat under my bird feeder to try an snag a shot of our resident cardinal… Continue reading Taco Lentil Soup
Chicken Taco Casserole
I cannot get enough of this vintage cookbook I rediscovered in my collection. It's a compilation of recipes from women who attended the First United Methodist Church in Burkburnett, Texas in 1977. I started out cooking a knockoff KFC chicken recipe from the book for TikTok. After that, I was hooked. There are so many… Continue reading Chicken Taco Casserole
Chana Masala Breakfast Tacos
One of the worst things about moving out of the city is the lack of food options. I no longer live near a Crest grocery store. My favorite Thai food is at least 30 minutes away. There's a lack of options when it comes to Chinese restaurants. Korean and Vietnamese restaurants are non-existent. And I… Continue reading Chana Masala Breakfast Tacos
