Cooking

My food isn’t always fancy and my favorite meals usually involve lots of butter and something fried. In my recipe book, you’ll find a missmash of country comfort food that can be whipped up on-the-fly and finer company-worthy dishes that take a little extra time to prep. I also share my favorite recipes from other cooks that I think you’ll love too.

Pumpkin Spice Whoopie Pies with Mascarpone Filling

10 / 23 / 1710 / 23 / 17

Some people go a little nuts in the fall with #pumpkineverything—drowning themselves in endless PSLs, pumpkin butter, pumpkin waffles, pies… you name it. “Some people” is me. Now that fall is here and temperatures are (finally) dropping, my favorite way to welcome in the new season is a baking day.  Krusteaz recently sent me a… Read More

The Best Biscuits & Gravy

Biscuits and Gravy have always had my heart. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch or dinnertime, I’ll eat a plate of fluffy biscuits smothered in gravy any time of the day. I have never met a person who didn’t have a fondness for biscuits and gravy—we all love it—and everyone has their favorite version of it. Whether… Read More

Healthy Banana Muffins

Living in Oklahoma, I’m constantly surrounded by my biggest food temptations and guilty pleasures. Greasy hamburgers, chicken fried steak, fried pies, biscuits and gravy… the comfort food is endless. Since my 30s are only a mere couple of years away, I’m trying to make a conscious effort to eat better to, hopefully (fingers crossed!), slow down… Read More

Recipe: Cast Iron Lemon Rosemary Chicken

Cast Iron Lemon Rosemary Chicken

This recipe for Cast Iron Lemon Rosemary Chicken is one I’ve made time and time again—it’s an easy family favorite and company-worthy, too. Even though this dinner is relatively easy to throw together, we consider it a special treat around our house because every single person (even the tiny one) loves it. I’m a big fan… Read More

Recipe: Asian Marinated Pork Chops

Asian Marinated Pork Chops

Pork. The “other” white meat. Somehow, I always have an abundance of pork chops in my freezer—it always seems to be the last thing we reach for mostly because my recipe binder has less variety for pork than other proteins.  So, in attempt to cook up some of those thick-cut boneless pork chops hanging out in… Read More

Recipe: Chocolate Pound Cake with Chocolate Ganache

Chocolate Pound Cake

This is the RICHEST chocolate cake you’ll ever taste. Promise. Nothing satisifies an intense chocolate craving quite like this chocolate-on-chocolate pound cake. After trying countless recipes and pins in search of the best chocolate cake, I have finally found it! This cake is the perfect reward at the end of a hard day… if I know that I… Read More

Recipe: Beef Burgundy Stew

9 / 12 / 1510 / 11 / 15

Growing up, Beef Burgundy Stew was always a favorite meal of mine. Living in Northern California, my mom, dad and I used to take regular weekend drives up through the Sierra Nevada Mountains and one of our favorite lodges served the heartiest, most delicious bowl of Beef Burgundy Stew during the winter months. We got… Read More

Recipe: Easy Butter Cookies

9 / 11 / 1510 / 11 / 15

When it comes to dessert, I’m a definite cookieaholic. Cookies are my usually my go-to when I’m craving something sweet because I almost always have enough ingredients on hand to make some sort of cookie variation and they usually last more than one day (nothing’s worse than slaving away on a handmade dessert and dirtying up… Read More

Recipe: Healthy Lentil Salad

Healthy Lentil Salad

I’ve been making this lentil salad for years and it’s perfect for when you need to clean up your diet a bit and want to eat a little lighter. This lentil salad can be made the night before (I like it best cold anyway) and is great for a sack lunch or picnic meal. The clean, crisp… Read More

Recipe: Perfect Fluffy Pancakes

9 / 1 / 1510 / 11 / 15
Perfect Fluffy Pancakes

Pancakes are usually a weekend treat around my house because everytime I make a batch of these fluffy pancakes, we typically overindulge. My family could never be trusted with these pancakes on a daily basis or else we might need a bigger house.  I am a firm believer that pancakes should always be fluffy… and piled… Read More
