Easy Chicken and Dumplings

This is a tasty, hearty, and super easy version of the slow cooked classic: chicken and dumplings.  Be sure to use low sodium broth, and if you don’t I would suggest using half broth half water, otherwise it will be too salty (trust me–there is plenty of salt in the rotisserie chicken, cream of chicken [...]

Black Beans and Rice

Black beans and rice are a great winter food.  They are warming and very filling.  They are also very healthy.  The key to this dish is to soak the black beans in water over night. Ingredients: 1 lb. dried black beans water 1 onion, chopped 7 garlic cloves, smashed 1-2 jalapenos, diced (can omit) 2 [...]

Cook Off Chili

This chili is solid.  I found the recipe and the always tasty fashionably foodie.  You can cook on the stove-top or in the crock.  It was also really good the next day on a taco salad with creamy jalapeno dressing. Ingredients: 4 cans kidney beans, undrained (I used 2 cans) or 1 pound dried kidney [...]

Korean Short Ribs

I found this most delicious recipe at Blisstree.com.  Heather’s photo is soooo much better than mine, but since I loved the dish so much, I didn’t want to wait until I made it again to try taking a better photo. Not only is this a crock pot dish, but it is company worthy…yes you heard [...]

Ingredients: 3 TBSP butter 1 medium onion, large dice 4 medium carrots, large dice 2 tsp. dried thyme 1 tsp. poultry [...]

Chicken Enchilada Soup

This soup is so hearty and so yummy, and both kiddos liked it a lot…major accomplishment!  It’s an extremely tasty crock pot meal and it’s so easy…definitely company worthy! You can leave the chicken out and stir in some leftover chicken just before serving and then continue cooking to heat chicken through. Ingredients: 1 15 [...]

Coconut Beef Curry

Not a great picture, but are there really any good pictures of Indian curry dishes?  Despite the picture, this is an excellent Indian inspired crock pot beef curry.  I don’t say this often, especially with regards to a crock pot meal, but this dish is company worthy…especially if the company loves a deliciously spicy (or [...]

Favorite Tortilla Soup

Sorry it’s not the prettiest picture of this most delicious soup.  We love this tortilla soup, and have been making it for years.  You choose your toppings and make it your own, and yes the toppings are important!  Adapted from Emeril’s Favorite Tortilla Soup. Ingredients: 2 TBSP olive oil 1 c. chopped onions 2 tsp. [...]

Tex-Mex Chili Mac

We like chili mac.  What’s not to like?  Chili with pasta and cheese.  This is by far our favorite version, which comes from the Tex-Mex Cookbook.  The taco seasoning mix is delicious and would be great for straight up taco meat…beef or chicken…or any recipe that calls for a taco seasoning packet. Ingredients: 1 lb. [...]
