Scrumptious Food, Lightened Up
Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner, and I’ve got an easy-to-whip-up recipe for your weekend festivities. These Air Fryer Cheese Taquitos are the ultimate crunchy, cheesy appetizer. And if you don't have an air fryer, they can easily be made in the oven. Reflecting on the food I cook, I gravitate towards Mexican …
Football is officially back! I love football season and couldn't be more thrilled. And with football season comes lots of tasty snacks, apps, and game day grub like these quick and easy to prepare Buffalo Chicken Pinwheels.

As much as I love to cook - and eat, of course - there is one food that I have despised most of my life. Onions! And onions are in so, so much. Including this recipe. It's kinda the star of the show. Only in the last few years have I very slowly and reluctantly …

Growing up, family vacations consisted of a lot of historical sites. I've seen quite a few battlefields and Presidents' gravesites in my day. That's what you get when your father is a historian. My brother and I were not always thrilled – we longed to visit Disney World or a water park instead of spending our …
