Since I only go to the grocery store once a month now, I have to eat all of my fresh veggies and fruits within the first two weeks. That leaves the last two weeks with just protein and pantry staples---a time when my craving for veggies intensifies. When I went grocery shopping this last week… Continue reading Thai Veggie Wraps

Spicy Dill Veggie Dip
Today feels like it should be any other day of the week but Wednesday. Monday? That's what it feels like. This week keeps dragging on so slow. I'm ready for the weekend to get here in a big bad way. Do you ever feel like time is moving slow? I feel that way a lot.… Continue reading Spicy Dill Veggie Dip
Garlic Chicken & Spinach
One of my favorite kitchen gadgets is my silver fish. No, not the bug you find under boxes in your garage. I literally have a silver fish that sits on my sink. What's it used for? Getting terrible smells off your fingers. I'm talking garlic and onion smells. It sticks to your fingers, especially if… Continue reading Garlic Chicken & Spinach
Fall Harvest Bowls
There's a lot of foods out there that have fallen out of favor with this generation. It's not just a millennial problem, either. Gen Xers just don't cook like boomers did. If people are actually getting into the kitchen, they're meal prepping the same Pinterest meals over and over again. Not only have certain meals… Continue reading Fall Harvest Bowls
Garlic Parmesan Kielbasa Skillet
Can I just live outside right now? Seriously. If I could haul my work computer outside I would do it today. It's absolutely breathtaking outside. It's 60 degrees and overcast. That's my idea of perfect weather. Unfortunately, I'll be trapped behind a computer screen all day at work. There might be a chance or two… Continue reading Garlic Parmesan Kielbasa Skillet
Cucumber Salad with Feta and Dill
It's officially fall, y'all. I know it may not feel like it where you live, but according to scientists, September 23rd is the first official day of fall. It only feels like fall in OKC right now because of the allergies (which are killing me right now, by the way). It's still a zillion degrees… Continue reading Cucumber Salad with Feta and Dill
Green Rice Chicken
Sometimes you can find really strange recipes in old cookbooks. Recipes like sausage bundt cakes, raisin and mayonnaise sandwiches, and jello molds with onions inside. None of those things sound appetizing, right? Of course not. But buried deep inside those old cookbooks, past the pages of jello molds and processed meats, you can find nuggets… Continue reading Green Rice Chicken
Kung Pao Roasted Cauliflower and Brussels Sprouts
I have a dream where one day everyone will get on board with cauliflower. Cauliflower gets a bad rap; even more so now that it's the "trendy" food to eat. People knock on the broccoli impostor constantly on my social media feeds.But have you ever tried cauliflower? Like, really tried it? It just needs to… Continue reading Kung Pao Roasted Cauliflower and Brussels Sprouts
Vegetable Loaded Chicken & Wild Rice Soup
It feels like I have a short work-week this week when I really don't. I'm leaving Friday as soon as I get off work to fly to Montana and spend the holidays with my family. I keep thinking about all the things I have to do before I leave and it's making it seem like… Continue reading Vegetable Loaded Chicken & Wild Rice Soup
Pesto Shrimp & Vegetable Sheet Pan Dinner
Since our epic snow storm busted over the course of 24 hours, I found myself with nothing to do this weekend. I cleaned. I played around with some makeup. I made chex mix. I entertained the cats. That was all before 9:24 a.m. yesterday. What the heck was I going to do for the rest… Continue reading Pesto Shrimp & Vegetable Sheet Pan Dinner
