A Southern Soul: Easy Recipes & Stressfree Entertaining Ideas

Southern Meal Planning—So Much Better Than Take-Out

Hey Reader!

​

Having to switch back to work/school/reality mode after holiday season can feel like a massive effort. A couple weeks ago you were living off of Christmas cookies, gifted toffee, and leftover ham and now you have to cook and eat like a civilized person?

​

I'm here to help with easy meals that you can throw in a crock pot or are easy to prep, will stay fresh for days, and reheat beautifully!

Cook Once, Eat Well All Week

​Grilled Lemon Chicken​

This flavorful chicken can be used as a main dish with your favorite healthy sides, on top of salads, in sandwiches, and pasta!

​Morning Glory Muffins​

Loaded with carrots, coconut, walnuts, apples, zucchini, and the just right amount of spice, they're the perfect grab-and-go breakfast or snack.

​Garden Vegetable Soup​

It’s easy to make, low in fat and calories, and features flavors that can be enjoyed any time of day!

​The Best Tuna Salad​

Prep this classic tuna salad ahead of time and enjoy on sandwiches, on a salad for a protein boost, or with crackers or tortilla chips!

​Egg Breakfast Muffins​

Make these egg muffins ahead of time using whatever you like or have in your fridge, refrigerate for up to 5 days, and just pop in the microwave for a hot breakfast!

​Southern Caviar​

This recipe can be served as an appetizer, side dish, on top of grilled seafood or chicken, or as a healthy lunch or snack!

​Caprese Pasta Salad​

Pasta salad is kind of the ultimate meal prep. Customizable, doesn’t need to be reheated, and only gets better after being refrigerated.

​Bloody Mary Chili​

A hearty bowl of goodness loaded with beef, beans, and warm, spicy flavors, and leftovers are even better the next day!

​Cozy Crock Pot Soup Recipes​

Crock Pot Soups are one of my favorite ways to bring together simple ingredients, big flavor, and cozy comfort — all with very little effort.

Show Me Your Southern Soul!

I’d love to see your creations! Snap a pic of your dish and tag me on Instagram. Who knows—you might get featured in my next email!

​

Happy cooking, friend.
