I like to incorporate a meatless meal at least once a week. Sometimes my meatless meal is simple: oatmeal for breakfast. Other times, I go out on a limb and make a meatless dinner. It's hard breaking out of that mindset that you HAVE to have a protein and it HAS to be meat. It's… Continue reading General Tso’s Chickpeas and Vegetables

Chicken Fried Quinoa
Quick! Tell me your go-to Chinese takeout order! If you're thrown on the spot, I bet a lot of you say chicken fried rice. My favorite takeout order? Lo mein and hot and sour soup. But my husband will order chicken fried rice almost every single time. It's a classic and it hits the spot… Continue reading Chicken Fried Quinoa
Sweet Thai Chili Stir-Fry
Every Sunday I meal prep for the week ahead. I make two meals for my husband to take to work for lunch, then a few meals for dinners throughout the week (plus snacks and salads when I decide to make them). I've been experimenting with what my husband will eat for lunch because I want… Continue reading Sweet Thai Chili Stir-Fry
Orange Chicken Lettuce Wraps
I just impulse bought a new coffee pot. It's a Keurig cup + 12 cup carafe duo coffee maker. I had to have it and it came at a decent price. You see, we've had our current coffee maker for the last year...maybe 2 years. I got it for $8 at Walmart because it was… Continue reading Orange Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Garlic Sriracha Pork Stir-Fry
It's a chilly one out there today. We're under an ice storm warning for the next several days and I'm hoping and praying our electricity doesn't go out. I love how Oklahoma skips right over fall and dives head first into winter. Leaves changing colors, what's that? Cool fall temps with sweaters? Never heard of… Continue reading Garlic Sriracha Pork Stir-Fry
Thai Salmon Stir Fry
I've been hoarding all of these keto ideas and recipes and I'm finally getting around to posting them. Anytime inspiration strikes, I jot it down in my notes on my phone. I'll be laying in bed, about to fall asleep, when I'll think of something like, oh what if I make sloppy joe's but with… Continue reading Thai Salmon Stir Fry
Kung Pao Chicken
When we visited Bozeman, Montana this summer Rob and I stumbled upon a cute and quirky little spice shop. I loaded up with all the spice blends that smelled the best (an incredible garlic and herb one, plus Italian seasoning) and then got things I needed but couldn't easily find in OKC (aji amarillo chile… Continue reading Kung Pao Chicken
Turkey & Green Bean Stir-Fry
There are very few meals that I make more than once. It's not that I don't like what I'm making, it's just that I'm constantly having to make new things so I can blog about it. Most normal people have a handful of recipes they keep in their dinner rotation. That's things like meatloaf, roast… Continue reading Turkey & Green Bean Stir-Fry
Pork Belly Stir Fry
I'm a Trader Joe's fanatic. Oklahoma City got its first TJ's a few years ago and I've been making a weekly or bi-weekly trip ever since. Now, Trader Joe's is not my normal grocery store of choice. I usually go there to try out new things, peruse, or buy olive oil. Trust me when I… Continue reading Pork Belly Stir Fry
Beef and Broccoli Ramen
Strange comfort foods have always plagued me. No matter how hard I try to eat healthy and try new things in the kitchen, I'll always come back to those pre-packaged, not-so-good for you comfort foods. I'm talking toaster streudels, Eggo waffles, Fritos with bean dip...and ramen. Ah, ramen. The little 10 cent packages that contain… Continue reading Beef and Broccoli Ramen
