    Hash Brown and Smoked Sausage Casserole

    February 1, 2026 - By 

    I’m not going to lie…I really love a good casserole during the fall and winter months. There is something so comforting about a hearty hot casserole for dinner when it’s cold outside. And so I wanted to start making some casseroles again! I love this hash brown and smoked sausage casserole because it is pretty simple to make. And it tastes amazing too! This recipe reminds me a bit of my cheesy ground beef casserole recipe, which is one of my favorite recipes on the site! So when I first made this recipe, I knew it was also going to…

    Baked Honey Mustard Chicken

    When I went to the store, I saw a package of boneless, skinless chicken breasts that had been marked down because it was set to expire the next day. And since I needed to fix something for dinner that night, I decided to pick it up. Of course, I am always looking for something simple to make. And since I had just purchased some local honey, I thought it would be a great time to create a honey mustard chicken recipe! I love that this recipe uses simple ingredients and is quick to prepare. I spent only 5 minutes whipping…

    No-Cook Hummus Plate

    May 14, 2025 - By 

    Are you a fan of hummus? It can be used to create a simple, no-cook lunch or dinner option that is healthy, but that won’t deplete your energy to create! Those people who are neurodivergent, or who struggle with fatigue (hello perimenopause), or those with chronic illnesses, all know that sometimes it is downright difficult to fix yourself a meal. There have been plenty of times when I am struggling with some burnout and struggle to even get out of bed or off the couch. During those times, it can be so easy to order takeout or reach for something…

    March 1, 2025 - By 

    I’m a big oatmeal lover. And it’s not uncommon for me to make a bowl of oatmeal for lunch because I enjoy it so much. But when it gets warmer here in South Carolina, I want to eat fewer hot foods. That’s why I started making overnight oats! It allows me to enjoy oatmeal, even during the warmer months of the year. This is also a great low-spoon recipe. It takes very little time to put together, and since I tend to have more energy at night then it’s simple for me to whip up before bed for breakfast or…
