Grilled Chicken with Garlic Cheese Sauce
Well, our air conditioner is officially dead. We have some people coming towards the end of this week to give us quotes on a new one. We are all still sleeping in one room despite it being a bit cooler during the days. Unfortunately there are no trees around our house for natural cooling. We…
Creamy Chicken Noodle Casserole (No Canned Soup Recipe)
Last night was definitely a comfort food night. Even though summer is just a few weeks away the temperatures have dropped just a bit and there was a slight breeze. It was still nice out but it almost had a fall feel to the day. This was the first night we were all home together…
Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas
It was a crazy and fun weekend. We were in Milwaukee for three days for a Mommy/Daughter Feis, Irish dance competition, trip. No, I don’t dance, I finance, as they say. She did really well. It was the first time in a long time she could come off stage and say, “I did the best…
Shish Taouk
When I read this recipe for Shish Taouk from White House Red Door (click for link to original recipe) I knew I was going to make this recipe soon! We love Mediterranean food and I was excited to try this. There is a little Mediterranean restaurant near our house and we love to order new foods to…
Slow Cooker Simple Chicken and Dumplings (with Homemade Dumplings!)
If you have paid any attention to my blog lately you will have noticed that I have served chicken several times over the last few weeks. Chicken breasts are fairly inexpensive right now so I am buying 30-40 pounds a month. That is quite a bit of chicken for us to eat for dinners. I…
Barbecue Chicken Pizza with Caramelized Onions
We are all about the easy around our house. I knew there were going to be a few nights of quick meals so I bought several pizza crusts to have on hand. I can make pizza crusts but they never seem to turn out like the pizzeria type that I want. I have tried everything…
Easy Chicken and Broccoli
Standing in the kitchen at 6:00 pm with a pound and a half of raw chicken is not a fun place to be when your family is hungry. That is where I found myself the other night. I was looking through my menu options, I make a month of menus to cut down on those…
A Contemplative Weekend and a Chicken Caesar Casserole
I am over my temper tantrum from last week. I spent most of this weekend thinking about life, my friends and family. One year ago my mother-in-law died at 96 years-old after an amazing life. She loved her seven children, 25 grandchildren and 40 great-grandchildren (and still counting) and all their spouses and significant others. …
Chicken Piccata
There are days that I forget to start dinner until it is just about time for my family to start complaining that they are hungry. We all do it. I have a month of meals planned to choose from so I usually have something I can make quickly. Not the other night. It was the…
Slow Cooker Gumbo with Quinoa
I missed a whole day yesterday. Because of a perfect storm of events I ended up staying in bed all day yesterday. Which sounds perfect to most moms but the stomach flu that accompanied the day was awful. I was the last to get it in our family and actually thought my Super Mom powers…
Chicken Alfredo Casserole
Every once in a while my family loves a good, home-cooking casserole. The right combinations in a casserole can almost feel like a warm hug from when you were a child. They can evoke memories from your past. I always find it amazing to stop and think about the way food effects us emotionally and…
