    About

    Hi there! My name is Kara and I'm a wife & mother living deep in the heart of Texas. I am blessed beyond measure and have an unparalleled love for my husband, daughter, and 2 dogs.

    I love crab legs and hate peanut butter. I have a passion for cooking and believe that sitting down to dinner each night is one of the most important parts of the day.

    If I'm not cooking something in the kitchen, you'll find me spending time with my family. We love camping and spending time at the river.

    All of my recipes aim to be family friendly, and I will often preface when they may not be to everyone's taste. I live with two very picky eaters, so I aim to please even the pickiest of people with my recipes.

    I've been cooking since I was a child. I often get asked how I learned to cook, and honestly, I don't remember actually sitting down and being taught. What I remember is getting a stool and constantly helping my mom and grandma in the kitchen from the moment they would let me. It has always been a part of my life and I have always loved it. Even when I was about 7 years old, my grandma would let me make dishes for her potluck lunches for work. I loved every moment of it. As I've gotten older, I've branched out more and more and my skills improved from there. My favorite stress reliever is going in the kitchen and making a big meal or baking something delicious.

    I hope you take some time to look around and find some recipes that you and your family will enjoy. From my little family to yours, welcome to Sweetly Splendid!

    Crispy Baked Garlic Potato Wedges are perfect when it comes to getting the crispy outside and fluffy inside of fries. It’s easy to have these thrown together in less than 30 minutes with your favorite burger.

    Grilling season is in full swing at my house. This Coastal Marinated Grilled Chicken is a favorite. It’s easy to make and packed with flavor. It had a honey lime base with soy sauce (or coconut aminos) and garlic.

    Did you get a chance to see last weeks new recipe? This Baked Spaghetti is so good! It’s quick and easy to make. The gooey cheese center is my favorite part 😍

    Saying goodbye to my first baby is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I’m broken. I’m overwhelmed with grief. I’m not okay. I’ve been unable to write this post every time I’ve tried, so I’ll share what Jacob wrote in my stories ❤️

    Have y’all tried this Chicken Noodle Casserole? It takes traditional chicken pot pie, adds pasta, and swaps the thick crust for a buttery, crispy, crumble topping. It’s perfect for a weeknight meal 😍
