In the dog days of summer, people tend to grill out so they don’t heat up the kitchen with the oven or stove. But in this crazy heat wave of 100+ temperatures in 2022 where everyone has air conditioning, I’d say stay inside and make something amazing. This week I’ve got a great recipe to […]

Spicy and Tangy “Z” Wings
The thing I love to do in my down time is turn on The Food Network and daydream about places to visit and new recipes to cook. One show I really like is “The Best Thing I Ever Ate”. In a nutshell, famous chefs talk about some of their favorite dishes at restaurants around the […]
Perfect Low-Carb Donuts
It’s back to school week! I officially have a 2nd grader, Kindergartner, and (fingers-croseed) potty-trained preschooler. School looks a little bit different this year, and even though I am apprehensive about the changes and restrictions, I know the kids are excited to go. This week I am featuring some easy-to-make back to school snacks…. a […]
1-Minute Pizza Sauce
Okay mamas, let’s be real. Who else throws their menu plan out the window right around 5pm out of sheer exhaustion and lack of motivation to cook? This happens to me sometimes… and a lot more since “the ‘RONA”. Taco tuesday this week quickly turned into “how fast can I throw a salad together” after […]
Apple Cider Donuts
On the first day of fall in the South, it’s doesn’t feel much different weather-wise. It’s still in the high 80s usually and the leaves haven’t started changing (except for this year, we are in a drought and everything seems to be turning brown not in a good way). There was one year a few […]
Mexican-Style Grain-Free Rice
So, last weekend we did a big BBQ contest right near our house in Southaven, Mississippi. It was a lot of fund and we got two calls… 6th place in ribs and 3rd place in brisket. It was a big deal for us because it was a touch contest where we competed against world champions […]
Keto-Friendly Oven-Fried Chicken Tenders
It’s been a rainy week. I mean, month. I mean, REALLY RAINY year. Our little pond is a lake and our little ditch is now a stream. There are lots of muddy paws and muddy boots! Today I came home from the office and there were two ducks in our pond. I’m sure they won’t […]
Matcha Mint Chocolate Biscotti (Gluten-free and Keto-friendly)
Let’s talk specialty baking – like Keto or gluten-free recipes….nothing is more disappointing than spending a gazillion dollars on specialty ingredients and then whatever you baked turns out terrible. It’s happened to me plenty of times. The good news is that there are plenty of easy recipes, that aren’t full of expensive ingredients (relatively speaking) that […]
Caramel Brulée Latte (Starbucks Copycat)
The weekend…where did it go? It always goes by too fast, but we had a fun one! We went to the Olive Branch Christmas parade and the kids had a great time. We got to sit on a grassy hill and watch all the marching bands and floats go by. Today we are making some […]
Toasty White Chocolate Mocha (copycat recipe)
This weekend, I am doing three copycat versions of the Starbucks holiday drinks…they are meant to be healthier versions that you can make at home, making a guilt-free treat you can enjoy for the holidays! Yesterday, I posted my recipe for the Peppermint Mocha, which is a pretty straightforward and easily tweaked recipe, based on what […]
