The other day my daughter-in-law dropped off some polenta that she made. I think I made polenta once, or maybe I bought it, I honestly can’t remember. I do remember having to sear it in a pan because left over polenta tends to solidify pretty quickly. I had some chicken thighs in the fridge, I know I think I ALWAYS have chicken thighs in the … Continue reading White Wine Chicken Thighs over Creamy Polenta
Kind of happy to see the rain today. Hoping it takes care of the ridiculous amount of pollen out there. My porch, driveway, patio and everything on them are pretty much all the same yellowish/green color and it’s disgusting. And if I have to go out and clean it all off I would be sneezing my head off. Maybe next week we can actually open … Continue reading Creamy Coconut Milk Chicken
Sitting here thinking about what to write. Made my tea, my husband is making breakfast, I made my list of what needs to get done, looking forward to crossing out what actually does get done. Yes those things tends to happen; I have great intentions and then some things just go sideways. Last night was a little up in the air. I wasn’t sure if … Continue reading Chicken Cauliflower Curry
My garden is doing just OK. I did have a lot of cucumbers so I made 17 jars of pickles yesterday. I have gotten a few zucchini and summer squash so I wanted to make something for dinner the other night using up a couple of them. This recipe is a keeper and you need to check it out. Very easy to make, a one … Continue reading Lemon Parmesan Chicken with Squash
While you are reading this on Sunday morning or at least I am posting this on Sunday morning Friday night I was looking on my site for this recipe. There were a handful of people at the house and we were prepping for the baby shower for my son and daughter-in-law; my first grandbaby the following day. The theme is horses so we are having … Continue reading marinated chicken thighs
Firstly I hope you had a wonderful holiday! update – I wrote this over a week ago but am posting it today for you! Yes I know you know this is one of my daughters recipes; I do that some times. Even though I had the week off last week and I should have spent time making new recipes. I failed and spent 3 days … Continue reading Japanese Soup Curry
Some recipe titles you can read and say – I am all in and others might give you a little pause. I am the same way. I am grateful that my daughter has less pause than I do. She is the one that brought miso into the house. You may ask what miso tastes like. I don’t think I can explain it better than what … Continue reading Chicken with Miso and Sweet Potatoes
So I just spent the last few hours looking for photos for this recipe that I posted back in 2015 because the images seem to be lost on my post. I am not entirely sure how or why some of my photos disappear; I am only slightly tech savvy and I basically know enough to get by and know when to call in the … Continue reading Maple roasted chicken and acorn squash
It is finally feeling a little like spring around here. The sun is shining, the wind isn’t too bad and the bugs are not around yet so I spent 4 hours outside raking and still have another 4ish or at least someone else has another 4 or so I mean I don’t want to have all the fun! I mentioned the other day I wanted … Continue reading Roasted sheet pan dinner
This week my kitchen was pretty quiet; which is my way of saying that I didn’t make anything exciting that I felt I HAD to share with you. That doesn’t mean we didn’t eat it’s more how I would say “no brainer” meals were had this week. What I mean by that is whatever was simple, quick and not a lot of ingredients. Any shortcut … Continue reading Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs
