Cookies and Cream is the dream
Back in the day, I would make an Oreo cake from time to time. It was a typical Devil’s Food flavor cake-in-a-box from the mega-mart, mass produced cream cheese full of unnecessary ingredients, a tub of frozen Cool Whip, and about two-thirds of a large package of Oreo cookies. It was topped with a hard shell of melted […]

Jason’s Chicken Fajita Casserole Replay!
Chicken fajitas are one of the few things I can order from a restaurant these days that fit my lifestyle… barely. Restaurants still use prison chickens that never get to move once in their life and go from chick to broiler so fast it looks like a time lapse video. They also use enough salt […]
Fall is here! Let’s revisit this Pumpkin and Squash delight with Jason
Spaghetti squash seems to get a lot of push-back, through no fault of its own. People will tell me it’s too mushy, the noodles aren’t long enough, and it doesn’t hold up structurally in dishes. I’ve got some hard news for you. Those issues are all your fault. The spaghetti squash is more than capable […]
Luigi’s sat empty all summer but a new restaurant is coming
It’s been three months since Luigi’s Pizza and Pasta in Bryant, Arkansas, closed abruptly. With the for lease sign hanging on the building all summer, some wondered if there would ever be another restaurant at 22000 Interstate 30. Patience pays off, and there is a restaurant in Little Rock that has announced they’ll be opening […]
I’ll frost your cake
The goal of my articles is to take unhealthy or highly processed foods, and use as few ingredients as possible to recreate it into an improved version. This recipe is the pinnacle of that mission statement. I’m taking one of the most unhealthy items you can buy in a mega-mart and transforming it into a powerhouse […]
