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 even bought plant food just in case I needed it! Everything was chugging along fine for a few weeks. My seeds slowly grew into sprouts (what… Continue reading French Onion Chicken Casserole

Fried Cabbage Slaw
It's one of my favorite vegetables: cabbage.I like it in just about everything. Raw in coleslaw or on top of tacos, cooked down with corned beef or fried with bacon---cabbage is a star in my world.Not to mention the fact that it's cheap. I bought a head of cabbage for 52 cents at the grocery… Continue reading Fried Cabbage Slaw
Taco & Pepper Jack Stuffed Bell Peppers
My week of "stuffed" meals continues today. I swear, this was completely inadvertent. I didn't intentionally plan to make a week of stuffed foods, it just happened. All the recipes I researched and thought of before I went grocery shopping last week just happened to be a stuffed version of something or other. But hey,… Continue reading Taco & Pepper Jack Stuffed Bell Peppers
Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Parmesan
I've got to brag on myself a little bit here. I had been feeling pretty unmotivated lately when it comes to the gym. I haven't been in two weeks! I kept making up excuses to make myself forego driving to the gym and instead go home to veg out. It's raining. I got off 4… Continue reading Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Parmesan

It's cold, dreary, dry--- and the holidays are quickly approaching. What better chance than now to whip up a salad for lunch or dinner? I know, I know, it's not really salad weather. The winter months don't really invoke a cool & crisp salad mood. But with the as busy as everyone's schedule has been this close… Continue reading Chopped Thai Chicken Salad
Chicken Parmesan Lasagna
It's about to be a whirlwind these next few weeks, so I'm trying to pile up as many blog posts as I can. I've got training for a new editing system at work (plus moving over files from the old system to the new), a quick work trip to Memphis, registry/wedding stuff to do, and… Continue reading Chicken Parmesan Lasagna
Roasted Chicken & Mushrooms with Couscous
I'm sorry. I did it. I decorated my house for Christmas. A whole two months early. Now, my tree isn't up yet, so I guess there's one silver lining for anyone who hates premature Christmas decorating. However, that tree is going up TOMORROW! I can't wait. I love twinkly Christmas lights and our tree is a gorgeous… Continue reading Roasted Chicken & Mushrooms with Couscous
Stuffed Shells Bolognese
When I was kid, my mom used to make stuffed shells at least once a month. It's when I first fell in love with ricotta cheese (which I can now eat straight out of the container) and was my first taste of Italian cuisine. I found this recipe the other day in a magazine and… Continue reading Stuffed Shells Bolognese
