I’m always on the hunt for dinner options that are fun, easy, and the whole family likes. These crispy chicken taquitos fit the bill. They are perfect served with a simple guacamole and pico de gallo. Baking these gives the crunch I was craving without having to deep fry and grease up my whole kitchen….

Honey Barbeque Chicken Wings
Is it ever too early to prep your super bowl menu? I think not. I must confess, my favorite part of most holidays is menu planning. I could care less who is playing, but bring on the endless appetizers! These honey barbecue chicken wings are going to be perfect for the big game in a…
Curry Coconut Fish
I am in the haze of post Christmas pre-New Years when all you want to do is avoid taking down Christmas decorations, sleep in, and eat all the leftover Christmas cookies. We traveled to my parents house for Christmas this year. As much fun, excitement, and quality family time as it brought, it also left…
Tex-Mex Stuffed Acorn Squash
Texas was hit with a cold front this week. A haul in the fig tree and succulents kind of cold front. It was glorious. We made a fire in the backyard, got to wear our cozy once-a-year flannel, and made this delicious fall-inspired dish. If you have not tried acorn squash, and are not too…

A delicious French Acadian meat pie sure to please your in-laws.

15 Bean Soup
On Mondays, we eat red beans. This is one of the many lessons I learned while working for Second Harvest Food Bank in New Orleans. Supposedly this tradition comes from Monday also being laundry day, which was a long grueling task before washing machines. People needed a meal that was hearty, yet did not require…
Chimichurri Steak
Here’s the thing. I love having people over. I do not love that I usually get over excited and end up spending most of my time rushing around the kitchen trying to make the 8 dishes I planned to wow my guests. I grew up in a Southern home where you show your love in…
Spice-Rubbed Pork Roast
Since having a baby, my husband’s lunches have been neglected. It’s not that I expect myself to be some domestic goddess. I just love cooking and normally take up the bulk share of that particular task. He doesn’t complain and manages well on his own, but I’d rather he not eat oatmeal and peanut butter…
