I've never liked asparagus. Like. Ever. (Said in T Swift's voice) Asparagus has always equaled gross in my book. Until now! We tried this recipe, and now I actually like it. I think I would like anything with Parmesan on it. I'm one of those people who dumps Parmesan cheese ALL over my pasta to the point where people ask, "Would you like some pasta with that cheese?" So motto of this post: take a yucky veggie and douse it in Parmesan and suddenly it's delectable. Here's what you'll need: Asparagus (Obviously) Water Butter Garlic Salt Pepper Grated Parmesan Continue Reading
Italian Garlic Green Beans
I struggle with sides. Side dishes that is. I can come up with an entree for supper, but I have a hard time figuring out what to make with it. I usually come up with something starchy, like potatoes or pasta. Not the healthiest choices. I usually forget to include a vegetable with our meals. Travis, on the other hand, is great about it! So the other night, I wanted to make sure I included a vegetable with our meal. I decided to try sauteing my favorite veggie, green beans, the way my sister-in-law did once when we visited. They were so good, so I wanted to try it out myself. Here's Continue Reading
Black Bean Salad
This is one of my favorite recipes. I was so excited to make it for Travis while I visited him in Georgia. I think it's fairly easy to make — just a lot of chopping — and it has a delicious and fresh taste. We use tortilla chips and eat it like a dip or salsa. I think it's healthy too! Protein and veggies.

Hash Brown Casserole
Comfort food. That's what this recipe is all about. Travis loves cheesy potatoes, so he loves when I make this hash brown casserole. And so do I! I found this recipe on Nancy Creative. The problem was, and I have this problem with most recipes, it was a recipe for a whole family. A family of four or five people plus leftovers. Travis and I like to eat, definitely, but I really needed the recipe to be for just two. So I cut the recipe in half to fit our needs. And we still have leftovers! While I was editing these photos, I was getting so hungry. Just looking at it makes my mouth Continue Reading
