Chicken and Broccoli
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We spent the day just the way we intended. We watched the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade for the first time in 3-4 years. We played Scattergories and laughed until our sides hurt. We napped. We made a simple dinner, together. We truly enjoyed just the four of us…
Mediterranean Chicken Skillet
Before the holidays things seem to get so hectic. We are trying to fit 1,000 things into the space of 250. I am always searching for tasty, easy meals that I can get on the table quickly and that my family will actually eat. I tried this meal the other night and it was on…
Loaded Potato and Buffalo Chicken Casserole

Chicken with Parmesan Sauce
This is not a good picture of this meal. My camera batteries were running low and the flash was not working. But, I did the best I could so you could get an idea of the dish. Last night was a dance night for us. That means dinner need to be on the table shortly…

Slow Cooker Chicken and Gravy
I am teaching my kids to cook. I have them help me make dinner a couple of nights a week. Sometimes it is just cooking the vegetables or making a salad. Other times, like the other night, my daughter cooked the whole meal. I want them to be able to leave home and subsist on…
Slow Cooker Spicy Lime Chicken
We are two weeks from back-to-school time. I can already feel the anxiety beginning to ramp up a bit around our house. I am trying to start them on the school schedule now so that it is not such a shock the first week of school. Things are going okay but I am trying to…
Hummus Crusted Chicken with Zucchini and Summer Squash
I needed inspiration for dinner. Supplies are low this week so I needed to use things I had on hand in the refrigerator and pantry. I was browsing through Pinterest because that is what I do daily. I saw the title of a Pin that someone had posted and I knew right away I wanted…
Spicy Chicken Strips with Cream Sauce
I loved the idea of this dish. Simple. That’s what I need lately. Things that I can get on the table within an hour for everything including setting the table. Prep work definitely helps too. If you are making mashed potatoes getting them peeled and into ice water can save a bit of time at…

Chicken with Rosemary Sauce
So, we ate dinner last night at 9:15 pm. I convinced my children we were eating like Europeans. I don’t know why it was so late but at least we finally all sat down at the table together. This is not a great picture of the meal. It was really dark by the time we…
