Chicken Salad Lunch

Promptly at 12:30 pm every day, I watch my coworker’s lumber up to the microwave to cook their frozen meals. As anyone with a food blog knows, I tend to have a lot of leftovers and those typically become my lunch. But there are times when leftovers are not an option and I also have [...]

Buffalo Chicken Tacos

I have a confession to make. I don’t really like watching football. But there are moments when I crave the type of grub you would find at any football party. Especially when it comes to the spicy and finger-licking goodness of buffalo wings.
This recipe is a fun twist on the classic football favorite with fewer [...]

Chicken Tetrazzini

I know its January, and I should be writing about salads and healthy items for everyone trying to stick to their New Year’s diet resolutions. Since I’m a believer that you can eat anything in moderation, then there is no need to feel guilty about writing this post.
The idea for this recipe actually came from [...]

Grilled Summer Vegetable & Chicken Kabobs

I could hear my dress shoes tap along the pavement as I bounced between the booths piled high with fresh picked vegetables. Every Monday, I stop by my local farmers market after work to take advantage of the season’s best flavors for my week of meals. The market was full of all of its bounty [...]

Rotisserie Chicken and Apple Salad Sandwich

Have you ever become fixated on an ingredient that you can’t get out of your head?  I’ve recently become a fan of rotisserie chicken from the deli section of my local market.  It’s so easy to buy on my way home from work and it’s pretty flavorful too.
So when Brent is off playing volleyball, and [...]

Marinated Grilled Lemon Rosemary Chicken

This was the entrée for my Impromptu Dinner Party.
The sun awakens from a restful slumber and shines its golden rays of light through the herbs growing in my kitchen window.  About a month ago, Brent’s mom gave me basil and a parsley plant because she felt our kitchen needed to be filled with some of [...]

Impromptu Dinner Party: Brent & Ty Take Over

After returning home from a wonderful trip in Toronto, the last thing I wanted to do was eat in yet another restaurant.  I craved a home cooked meal and the comfort of relaxing in the backyard, without the annoyance of servers asking us if we were American based on what we ordered.  While trying to [...]

Jumbo Chicken Meatballs

I opened the refrigerator door to be greeted by a fresh package of ground chicken that was originally intended for homemade pot stickers.   However, after a long day of super important meetings, the last thing my caveman fingers wanted to do was pleat hundreds of delicate rice paper wrappers.  I wanted an easy meal that [...]

Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Super Bowl parties are not about executing culinary greatness.  They’re about football, beer, commercials, and whatever you can shove in your face.  I can’t tell you how much crap I got for posting a recipe that called for precooked meatballs, as I did with the Sweet BBQ Meatballs post.  I believe the phrase was, “Oh [...]

Chicken Ravioli Soup

Ever since ravioli and sauce met that faithful moon-lit night in Italy some decades ago, they have rarely parted ways. Even after gaining celebrity status through a huge licensing agreement to feature their likeness on every Olive Garden menu across the country, their bond continued to remain strong.
Then came the moment when ravioli decided [...]
