Texas Turkey Salad (With a Jalapeño Kick) This Texas Turkey Salad is creamy, crunchy, a little sweet, and just spicy enough thanks to fresh jalapeños. It’s one of my favorite grab-and-go snacks straight from the fridge.

We're currently up in Breckenridge, CO, and made this incredible Spicy Italian Chicken and Potatoes Sheet Pan Dinner. This recipe was inspired by ChatGPT, but of course we tweaked it. We also included so me recommendations for cooks up in the higher elevations.

Saturday morning chores of hauling and stacking a 1/2 cord of wood are done 🥳 Now we can sit back and watch some football ⚽️

Ok, I told ChatGPT that we bought a big bag of frozen chicken breasts and golden potatoes and asked for suggestions on what we can make. She came up with Spicy Roasted Chicken and Potatoes. It was really good and I'll make it again. Recipe coming soon. #AccountantsWhoCook

Millions of people are expected to attend “No Kings” protests across the country Saturday, voicing anger at what some say they see as increasingly authoritarian governance by the Trump administration.
