Baked Eggs with Potatoes and Vegan Cheddar Cheese
Alright I’m going to level with you – I don’t make a ton of things with vegan products. For those of you who know me, that’s probably not a huge shock, but I’ve been experimenting a bit more here and there (due to slightly elevated cholesterol levels), and I’ve actually […]
Super Bowl Recipes and a Tale of Two Parties
It’s almost that time of year! Unfortunately, this year looks a lot different than the Super Bowls from days of yore. Prior to Covid (and my own life blowing up in my face), I used to host a BIG Super Bowl party for my friends every year in my apartment. […]
Football Snacks: Skillet Buffalo Chicken Dip
I have been craving Buffalo Chicken Dip like crazy lately, and then it dawned on me: it’s because my stomach knows it’s football season. I’ve made Buffalo Chicken Taquitos before, but not the actual dip by itself. Weird, right? So I did what any normal person would do and ran […]
Being Self-Aware and OK With Your Baggage
I know this may come as a shock to most of you reading this, and especially for those of you who know me, but I like who I am. I’m 36 years old and I’m pretty self-aware. I’ve been around long enough to know who I am, what I like, […]
Resolutions Are Overrated, Try a Realistic Goal
GASP. Starting off 2021 with a pinch of cynicism, just the way I like it. Sorry to be blunt, but let’s be serious. People put such lofty goals and resolutions upon themselves every year that most of the time, they don’t achieve them or even come close. Why is that?? […]
Air Fryer Spanakopita Triangles
One of the most delicious things ever, but definitely a labor of love. You can go right ahead and blame the phyllo dough for this one. It’s one of those mystery doughs – I have no idea how they get it like that, but I’m not going to question it. […]

I took some of the questions we covered and turned them into […]
Best Foods to Combat Anemia
The following is a guest post from writer Zendaya Doyle. We connected recently because I was looking for more writers to contribute on health topics. As someone who is anemic, I found this very helpful! Enjoy 🙂 About 3 million Americans are diagnosed with anemia and millions more in the […]
That Sexy Garlic & Olive Oil Pasta (Aglio e Olio) from Chef (the Movie)
How else am I supposed to describe this pasta? Just Aglio e Olio? BORING. I know that’s technically what it is, but I don’t care. I’ve had a hard day and this was quite literally the only thing that went right. Fuck, it may be the only thing of 2020 […]
