I know that fall is just hours away, but it’s still blazing hot and the tomatoes are still beautiful here in Tennessee. I’m giving summer one last hoorah in this tomato tart filled with goat cheese custard and a hint of fall with a toasted walnut wheat pastry crust. Tomatoes are one of those summer…
Vegetable
Lasagna Hand Pies
This might be one of my favorite comfort food mix-ups yet, y’all. Lasagna is no joke in my house. There is something amazing that happens when you bake layers of sharp tomato sauce, beef, Italian seasoned ricotta, and creamy mozzarella together. The result is 100% comfort. I’ve teamed up with Gardein to show you how I turned…
Champagne Onion Rings
SPRING is here, y’all! I know I’ve been whiny and complaining about the nasty cold weather, rainy whatever, so I’m here to celebrate the 80 degree days that we have been having in Nashville by popping a few bottles into my glass as well as the fryer. Why not, right? Around here, you can fry just…
World’s Best Brussels Sprouts
It may surprise all of you that I was never the kid that just begged for more greens on my plate. I would qualify a couple (literally) green beans as having my share of vegetables that I was required. Logically, I still think I was in the right. I still prefer a plate of monotoned…
Fried Mashed Potato Balls
When I was a kid, I can remember going to a University of Kentucky football game. If any of you know anything about Kentucky, you’ll know how horrible of an idea that even is. When we got there, it started to snow. It continued to snow. Eventually, someone in my family was able to pry…
5-Minute Citrus Kale Salad
I know. I know. A second salad posted in an entire year. So sue me. — With all of the annual new year buzz about healthy eating, I’ve sorta slowly eased onto the bus (or jumped in front of the train, if you’re an optimist like myself). Not only am I posting another salad recipe,…
Sriracha Baked Avocado Fries
Fries are my favorite food group. Something about that crispy shell with the light, fluffy center. Handheld comfort at it’s best. I can’t say that I ever get tired of eating fries, but sometimes I want that familiar comfort in a slightly different form. Baked Sriracha Avocado Fries fits the bill perfectly. Crispy outside, super-creamy…

Southern Creamed Spinach
I’m going to share my favorite way to eat all of my veggies with you all. A pretty simple, but insanely comforting side dish that goes with just about everything. Southern-style Creamed Spinach is where it’s at.
Cajun Fried Okra
Okra, okra, okra, okraaaaa! I think if I were to go to prison for some food crime (like hating rhubarb, probably), fried okra would be part of my last meal. Growing up, I preferred this stuff over McD’s fries any day. Turns out, nothing has really changed with regard to that. Since we are all…
