Ground Italian sausage in marinara is a no-brainer pasta sauce. But replace the pasta with portobellos and you have an adorable pre-portioned meal. Start by browning crumbled Italian sausage in a pan (mine had broccoli rabe in it – yum). You’ll need about 1 sausage link per portobello mushroom cap. When it’s almost done cooking,…

White Bean, Radicchio, and Blue Cheese Salad
I was scrolling through Instagram while standing in line at Trader Joe’s and was so interested in this salad I saw on there that I picked up the ingredients that very moment. There were so few ingredients to grab that it didn’t even disrupt my grocery shop. Considering there’s not even a real dressing to…

Zucchini Tuna Lasagna
I use the term lasagna loosely here. Basically, what you’re going to do is layer zucchini, tomato, tuna, and cheese. It tastes nothing like a lasagna and it’s not really supposed to, but I’m calling it a lasagna…so there. First, prep your tomato sauce. This is as simple as chopping up some Roma tomatoes and…

Juicy Lucy Turkey Burgers
Everybody loves a Juicy Lucy. Cheese is a MUST for a burger, but there’s no law that says it has to go on top. When it’s stuffed inside the burger, Juicy Lucy style, you get to have your cheese and get a surprise. I started by making some pimento cheese. Sorry, I refuse to give out my…

Sautéed Kale
Y’all, I totally think I figured out this whole kale thing. I made some the other night just by throwing some things in a pan and it totally worked. I have officially mastered kale. Simply sauté chopped kale in a pan with olive oil, garlic, and salt. That’s pretty much what everyone does blah blah…

BBQ Fried Turkey Cutlets
BBQ and fried chicken are two Southern staples. But what if we combined them? Doubly Southern and doubly awesome. This could easily be made with chicken, but turkey cutlets were in the house so that’s what I made. Fill a large ziploc bag with panko bread crumbs and a bowl with your favorite bbq sauce. (I used…

Inspiration Station: When Harry Met Sally
The Dish: I’m a goofball and will often break into weird accents, especially if I’m hanging around my best friend, Matt. That’s why the the scene when Harry and Sally are chatting in the Met is one of the most endearing to me. They are so comfortable with each other that they can talk like…
