That's what I call it. The more popular name is "Sex in a Pan" and while my husband definitely agrees with that nickname, I don't happen to agree. I'm a fan of texture, and putting a pile of cold gloop in my mouth is off-putting, to say the least. That's why my version of this... Continue Reading →
Pig ‘n a Poke Bacon Cornbread
My husband grew up in the South where cornbread was a staple at many, many meals. I grew up eating cornbread on Thanksgiving by preparing the mix straight from the box, but other than that, cornbread didn't have a place in my life. Until last year, when my husband started asking for chili to take... Continue Reading →
Low Carb Gluten Free Cookies and Cream Cheesecake
When I was 16, I decided that I wanted a cookies and cream cake for my birthday instead of my usual peanut butter pie, and honestly? It was one of the best decisions I ever made. While this recipe is truly a labor of love, I just love things that have some sort of crunch... Continue Reading →
Gluten Free Maple Caramel Pecan Pie Tarts
Everyone loves pecan pie, at least that's what I thought as a kid. It's warm, it's gooey, and it's fantastic under a pile of whipped cream. As a kid, my dad always bought my mom those little mini pecan pie tarts from Swiss Colony for Christmas. They were intended as a gift for her, but... Continue Reading →
Perfectly Seasoned Chipotle Garlic Chicken
I love chicken almost as much as I love eggs. When we were staying in a hotel for a week on one of my husband's business trips, we happened to be staying at a hotel across the street from a grocery store. While that might have seemed ideal, the fact that the hotel room we... Continue Reading →
Lil Spicy, Very Cheesy Cheeseburger Pie
Growing up, I had a very weird relationship with Hamburger Pie, which my mother always called it, despite the fact that it was always topped with cheese. It was one of my grandmother's favorite foods, and my father absolutely hated it. After my grandmother passed away, you'd think that the inappropriately named Hamburger Pie would...

Fresh Summer Salmon Poke
Sorry for the late update! I fell down the rabbit hole recently getting lost in Italy. I spent a month travelling around Europe, but spent most of the time in Italy, getting lost in the streets of the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum. It's a beautiful city and I highly recommend it - just make... Continue Reading →
Actually Cheesy Cheese Fries
I love snack foods, my all time favorite being BBQ Black Bean Bearitos. Sadly, I'm a bit of a low carb kick now which means that they are unfortunately out of my diet with a whopping 13 carbs per ounce. My nutritionist wants me on only 14 carbs per day, which means just one handful... Continue Reading →

Super Tasty Almond Blondies
I love baking. It's a great way to take a few mundane ingredients and turn them into something amazing. I've been told over and over again that baking is like a science: you have to follow the recipe to the letter and add in everything exactly as stated or your final product will be a...
