My fall decor is officially up and my pumpkin & apple candles are lit. Too bad it's 94 degrees outside. I'm more ready for fall than I am for anything else right now. I'm ready for the temperatures to dip and the hay rides to begin. Every retail store in the nation has had fall/Halloween… Continue reading Pepperoni Pizza Pinwheels

Quesadilla Chicken Salad
I've never been one of those people who loved big chain restaurants. Applebee's was the place to go when I was in college (probably for their cheap, potent mixed drinks during Happy Hour) and yet it was a place I would never step foot in. Cheddar's opened when I was in junior high in my… Continue reading Quesadilla Chicken Salad
Creamy Chicken Enchilada Soup
I know you've seen hundreds, if not thousands, of chicken tortilla/fajita/enchilada soup. It's one of the most popular soups on Pinterest, TikTok, Instagram, and in real life. But I'm here to tell you this one is the BEST of the BEST. It's creamy, spicy, filling and cheesy. It's cooked to perfection and tastes absolutely incredible.… Continue reading Creamy Chicken Enchilada Soup
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
Mexican Meatloaf
Meatloaf is one of those food items that just doesn't photograph well. I've made dozens of different meatloaf recipes over the years, but most of the time I don't blog about them because the pictures came out looking, well, like crap. It doesn't matter if it was the best thing I'd ever had! When the… Continue reading Mexican Meatloaf
Classic King Ranch Casserole
Let's take a break from the holiday baking, shall we? In the midst of my cookie fervor, I've been making simple dinners that will last. I'm talking casseroles, stews, and big batches of meat to make for sandwiches. This casserole is the quintessential "make in a pinch" dinner. It's a retro classic that has stood… Continue reading Classic King Ranch Casserole
Quick & Easy Catfish Wraps
One of my favorite things to get at the grocery store is catfish nuggets. It's simply chopped up catfish filets, but it's half the cost of an actual filet. 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
Salsa Verde Chicken Casserole
I'm more than halfway done Christmas shopping and it's not even December yet. I consider that a win. Usually, I'm one of those crazy people making a mad dash for the stores on December 23rd. I'm a perpetual procrastinator at all things in life, Christmas shopping included. I'll even fight the two things I hate… Continue reading Salsa Verde Chicken Casserole
Pineapple & Pulled Pork Tacos
If you could only live off of one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? That's an easy answer for me: tacos. There are so many different tacos to choose from, and my personal favorite are fish, shrimp, and pork. I've even been known to dive head first into a few… Continue reading Pineapple & Pulled Pork Tacos
Chicken Avocado Rollups
Snacks are everything in this household. I have to have snacks around me at all times. Just in case. There's nothing worse than being stuck and work and your only option on food is something really bad (calorie-wise) out of the machines. Snacks are a must. I usually have fruit to graze on in my… Continue reading Chicken Avocado Rollups
