(Almost 5 Ingredient) Cauliflower Rice Taco Casserole

Posted In: Beef | Recipes
Happy Monday! We are on the other side of yet another weekend, and suddenly it is June. How on earth did that happen? I spent the weekend doing my best to recover form a nasty cold I came down with last week, and thankfully, am feeling much better. I think my improved state has a lot to do with the fact that I am finally sharing this amazing recipe with ya'll! We take Taco Tuesday pretty seriously in our house.  It is pretty much expected that we will be eating Mexican food of some kind every.single.Tuesday. This w[...]

Paleo Sloppy Joes

Posted In: Beef | Recipes
Anytime I even think about Sloppy Joes, the ridiculous scene from Billy Madison pops in my head and I can't help but laugh.  The lunch lady in the scene does not make them seem very appetizing, as she heaps the sandwiches onto the plate with the classic lunch lady line, "I made them extra sloppy for ya!" I will say, Sloppy Joes were actually something I looked forward to when I occasionally ate from the cafeteria at school. There is just something very classically "elementary school" about them. But you know what? There[...]

Healthy, Hearty Beef Stew

Posted In: Beef
Last year, for our first Halloween in our new house, we didn't quite know what to expect in terms of trick-or-treaters. We live in a neighborhood, but also at the top of a hill that would make even the most determined kiddo hesitate. I decided that we would make our own Halloween, costumed visitors or not. So I made a big pot of Beef Stew, turned on Hocus Pocus, and waited! We ended up handing out a whole bowl's worth of candy, and the night felt like the quintessential Halloween evening! Since Travis and I are in the ear[...]

Hawaiian Fusion Steak Fajitas

Posted In: Beef | Recipes
When I was in Austin a few weeks ago, I made it my mission to visit my favorite restaurant in town, Hula Hut. Not only is their chip dip game strong, they have a killer sizzling Hawaiian Fajita plate. After eating my weight in chips and dip (as per usual), by the time the fajitas came to the table, I was honestly not even hungry anymore. But I was at HULA HUT and I couldn't not embrace the full experience. I regret nothing! A lot of my recipe inspiration comes from eating out at restaurants. I love the idea of going out[...]

Multipurpose Crockpot Spaghetti Sauce (That everyone needs in their arsenal)

I strongly believe that everyone needs a kick-butt spaghetti sauce recipe in their cooking arsenal. I can distinctly remember my aunt’s sauce simmering on the stove whenever my family would arrive in town to stay with her as a kid. Clutch move, as we all got hungry at different times and that sauce just bubbled away until we were ready to eat.  My oldest brother nailed his recipe at an early age, sometime in his high school years. This came in very handy when my mom declared we were on our own for dinner! After many[...]
