Italian Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

This is my take on the many stuffed zucchini recipes out there. This one takes an Italian flair. It turned out quite nicely, and I'll definitely try this again, maybe with a lemon-y take next time. Italian Stuffed Zucchini Boats Serves 3 3 medium large zucchini, about 3 lbs For the filling: 1 ...

Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Monday, June 14th, 2010

This recipe was inspired by one on Foodnetwork.com. I think it turned quite well! Not much like the "famous" version, but very tasty in its own right! Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps Serves 2 generously, 4 if served with rice For the chicken: 1.5 lbs skinless boneless chicken thighs, diced 1 egg white 1 tbsp ...

Pays d’Auge Chicken for 2

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

This is a somewhat easier take on my Pays d'Auge chicken, inspired by the mushrooms and apple brandy of the Pays d'Auge region in France. As I mentioned wanting to try in that post, I've used boneless skinless chicken thighs here and reduced the quantity of sauce. I ...

Chicken Cacciatore

Chicken cacciatore today for dinner. A hearty and healthy meal :-)

Greek Chicken and Squash Kabobs

Friday, June 4th, 2010

This was a nice and easy meal, inspired by a similar one in Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast. I doubled the marinade amounts, omitted the onion, and probably about tripled the amount of other veggies. I also didn't bother with the yogurt and feta dipping sauce. ...

Ginger Lime Chicken Thighs

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

Yet another recipe inspired by Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast. This was good, but probably not enough to repeat again. The flavor combinations were somewhat new to us. Neither of us is much a fan of retail curry powders, so I made my own omitting some of ...

Chicken with Onions, Tomatoes, and Olives

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

Another recipe inspired by Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast (Can you detect a theme this month? :-P We went through these two cookbooks at the beginning of the month looking for good protein and veggie ones and went with it!). As usual, I upped the ...

Tuscan Baked Chicken

Friday, May 28th, 2010

Yet another take-off from an Everyday Food: Great Food Fast recipe. This was a very tasty take on chicken with some traditional Tuscan flavors. The fresh lemon juice lent a nice bright touch. I only had time to marinate it for about 30 minutes tonight, but longer ...

Product Review – Hillshire Farm Turkey Smoked Sausage

Friday, May 28th, 2010

Last night we were both just exhausted for no good reason. Luckily, I'd seen a Hillshire Farm Turkey Smoked Sausage in the store and picked it up. We like the regular smoked sausage, but it tends to be very greasy. This turkey version is just as flavorful ...

Garlic Marinated Chicken Cutlets with Asparagus and Potatoes

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

Yet another good launching point from Everyday Food: Great Food Fast. I omitted most of the oil and all of the butter called for, and I cooked this in the oven, but I think the grill would add a great extra dimension of flavor. We added a little ...
