Coconut Curry with Chicken & Basil
Although I absolutely love this version of coconut curry, I hesitate to tell you the origin of the recipe. I don’t want anyone running for the hills, but fibbing about recipes is a definite no-no, so I’ll give you a clue: since yesterday was Fat Tuesday, it follows that today must be Weight Watchers er, Ash Wednesday. Yes, the origin of today’s dish can be found inside an old and dog-eared Weight Watchers cookbook. It’s a ‘points-friendly’ recipe (8 to be exact), for anyone out there who cares. Some of you do, so this one’s for you!

Homemade Chicken Stock
I’ve got a batch of homemade chicken stock simmering away on my stove, and this stuff smells heavenly! I totally get why chicken soup is renowned for its medicinal benefits – just one big whiff of this simmering stock can clear stuffy nasal passages and ward off whatever ails yah’.

Homestyle Chicken & Rice
This chicken and rice could possibly be the best part about winter, it’s that good. I know that’s a strong statement, but I defy you (wait, that sounds confrontational – and I’m definitely non-confrontational!). I mean, I challenge you not to like it. Or, I challenge you to like it? Wait. Now I’m just confusing myself.

Best Ever Chicken Pot Pie
I was so excited to see snowflakes flying yesterday that I almost couldn’t contain myself! ‘Tis the season … for chicken pot pie! YES!

Tortilla Soup with Chicken
Lately, I’ve really been in to making our house smell lived in.
And by a “lived in” smell, I definitely do not mean the aroma of a seventy-two pound black lab or a laundry basket of overflowing with dirty gym socks.

Roast Chicken Dinner
I dropped my punks off at school yesterday morning, and as usual, the last minute morning pleasantries were exchanged – you know the ones – depending on the mood in the car, they’re usually something along the lines of “I love you! Have a great day! Do your best!” But yesterday, instead of professing her love for me, my youngest yelled out (no lie), “Can you please make chicken legs for dinner, BYE!!”…and with that, the car door slammed shut and she was off.

Chicken Gyro Wraps
I hope you all found the time to cruise the meat and seafood sale on Tuesday! When I stopped by the Mequon store at noon, the meat counter was packed with carnivorous shoppers snapping up bargains (“beefing” up their freezers, maybe?! I know, sorry). My freezer is now well-stocked with baby backs, pork tenderloin, and ground chuck. A value pack of boneless chicken breasts also found its way into my cart. I’m using half of it for today’s recipe: Chicken Gyros with Yogurt Feta Sauce.

Chinese Lettuce Wraps
Poor iceberg lettuce.
It’s like the Wonder Bread of the produce department, isn’t it? The red-headed stepchild? Seriously, I don’t know of a single self-respecting foodie who would ever serve it at her dinner table. Something about it just screams “1978”, when all our mothers served us salads of iceberg lettuce and Wishbone dressing, ala Carol Brady.

Cobb Salad with Herbs & Sherry Vinaigrette
I’m an absolute fool for a good Cobb Salad, which is what I decided to make tonight. Light and fresh, they’re the perfect warm weather dinner. I adore them so much in fact, that I ate a Cobb Salad from the North Shore Bistro every single week for the full nine months that I was pregnant with my third kiddo.

Grilled Chicken Skewers
I want to tell you about this ‘chipper chocken’ recipe that I made tonight. It’s my favorite dish to make out of plain old, boring ‘chocken’ breasts. The refreshing Greek flavors of oregano and fresh mint really liven up these pretty skewers.
