This winter I’ve come to love Brussels sprouts, like in this healthy recipe from Real Simple (January 2011 issue) paired with chicken breasts and rice.

I chose this recipe from Clean Eating Magazine because one can never have too many kale recipes. And it sounded good.
Creamed Chicken Over Noodles
December 21, 2010 By 10 Comments
I know, I’m not usually a fan of making leftovers into something else. But I had a free range chicken just begging to be used as DH and I barely put a dent in it the other day. So I turned to More-With-Less Cookbook (World Community Cookbook) and found a recipe that would put it to good use.
How to Roast a Yardbird {Dark Days Challenge}
December 20, 2010 By 2 Comments
I thawed out a chicken from my local farmer in anticipation of this week’s Dark Days Challenge meal. DH wanted to try brining it since he claims my crock pot version turns out too dry. “Store chickens have all that stuff injected in it,” he said, “so I want to experiment and see if I can get a free range chicken more moist.”

While not nearly as good as my mom’s recipe for White Chili, this is a more than passable rendition.
Spicy Tomato Chicken

The original recipe from Simply in Season called for tempeh, but we had chicken on hand and lots of tomatoes, so I decided to adapt it for use with chicken.

No, it’s not winter (even though it feels like autumn outside!) I was pleased that I could use many of my CSA vegetables for this stew.
Fajitas with Cilantro Spice Paste
August 18, 2010 By 5 Comments
First off, I apologize for the lack of printable recipes and nutrition information. The program I use to generate those is on my laptop, which is currently not my friend. Will get that fixed soon though! Simply in Season provides two versions of fajitas, and I chose the cilantro spice paste version. Want the other one? Go buy the book Spice Paste: 1 C finely chopped cilantro leaves 2 T soy sauce 1 T oil 1 T chili powder 1 {Read More}

This main dish salad from Simply in Season makes a super quick dinner.
Sesame Garlic Glaze for Meat and Greens
June 9, 2010 By 6 Comments
This is a recipe from From Asparagus to Zucchini that I found last year when I was searching for a bok choy recipe. Before I realized that you can use glazes like this for any type of green or stir fry or meat. After taking a few classes at my CSA, I realized that a couple of glazes / stir fry sauces / salad dressings in your back pocket can make very efficient (and delicious!) use of most any vegetable that comes your way. This has become one of our favorites.
