This salad is really tasty and so easy to make, especially if you use a rotisserie chicken. It’s a perfect summer dish. The original recipe called for warm dressing, but since I’m not a fan of wilted lettuce, I let the dressing cool after cooking before adding it to the salad. The dressing would also [...]

Thai Chicken Salad

Published by May 3rd, 2010 in 5 Stars, Cooking Light, Easy Preparation, Italian, Kid Approved, Pasta, Poultry and Quick and Easy. 0 CommentsThis sauce recipe is awesome! It tastes like something you would get in a restaurant. The original recipe calls for cooking the sauce for 4 minutes, but I like the flavors when the sauce is simmered for a longer period of time…it’s richer and bolder. But if time is short, you can certainly cook the [...]
Crock Pot Turkey Chili
Published by February 5th, 2010 in 4 Stars, Beef, Crock Pot, Kid Approved, Poultry and Soups and Chilis. ClosedThis chili is so delicious. It can be made completely on the stove or once assembled it can be simmered away in the crock pot. I used my crock pot, and this chili is awesome. It is thick and hearty and delicious. I used ground turkey, but you could certainly use ground chicken or beef. [...]

Tamales
Published by January 7th, 2010 in 5 Stars, Entertaining, Leftover chicken or Turkey, Mexican/Southwest/Tex-Mex and Poultry. ClosedWe love tamales, and this recipe is by far my most favorite. I love them more than any tamales I’ve had at any restaurant (except for maybe Berry Hill Bar and Grill). This recipe is adapted from the Helena Tamales recipe in the April 2005 issue of Southern Living. Ingredients: 1 package of dried corn [...]
Easy Chicken and Dumplings
Published by December 24th, 2009 in 4 Stars, Easy Preparation, Kid Approved, Leftover chicken or Turkey, One Pot, Poultry, Quick and Easy, Soups and Chilis and Southern Living. ClosedThis 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 [...]
Cincinnati Turkey Chili
Published by October 23rd, 2009 in 4 Stars, Cooking Light, Easy Preparation, Poultry and Soups and Chilis. ClosedIt’s getting cold outside and that means it’s time for soups and chilis…my favorite time of year! And it’s no secret that I live chili, and I really do love Cincinnati chili. I’ve made two other versions: Cincinnati Chili and Cincinnati Chili Take 2. This version was quite tasty and we had enough for a [...]

Ingredients: 1 TBSP olive oil 3 1/2 c. cooked shredded chicken 3/4 c. salsa fresca Tortillas and [...]
Curry Rice Salad
Published by August 15th, 2009 in 5 Stars, Brunch, Easy Preparation, Entertaining, Family Recipe, Leftover chicken or Turkey, Poultry and Salad. ClosedThis is a go to dish (albeit I haven’t made in a long time). This recipe comes from my grandma Clark. She makes it for brunches, baby showers, wedding showers, and all sorts of events. This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken or Turkey from Thanksgiving. It’s also a great crowd [...]
Southwest Chicken Taco Filling
Published by July 24th, 2009 in 4 Stars, Crock Pot, Easy Preparation, Entertaining, Family Recipe, Heart Healthy, Latin, Mexican/Southwest/Tex-Mex and Poultry. ClosedThis chicken taco filling is quite good, and it’s made in the crockpot. It’s important to use a flavorful salsa (I used Arriba! Fire Roasted Mexican Chipotle Salsa), and DO NOT use a mild salsa as there just isn’t enough flavor. After the dish is cooked squeeze some fresh lime juice to give the dish [...]
