Honey Mustard Chicken Foil Packets and the Weekly Menu

This fall has been unseasonably warm, so I took advantage of the Indian Summer and made one last grilling recipe while I still could.

Don't worry if the weather isn't cooperating for the grill.  You can bake these packets in the oven for the same delicious results.

Summer Chicken Stew #FarmersMarketWeek

 I call this Summer Chicken Stew, not only because it is chock-full of the flavors of the season, but also because it is cooked using a slow cooker, perfect for hot summer days when you don't want to heat up the house.

An Algerian Chicken paired with Organic Wines from South Africa #EattheWorld #WinePW

When I was visiting my friend Linda in Tucson last month,  she gifted me a packet of Ras el Hanout that she had picked up during a cruise to northern Africa.  I decided to use it to make this Algerian Chicken dish.

Then, since I am hosting our Eat the World event this month, I invited the others to visit Algeria with me.

Easy Enchiladas #SundayFunday

This easy enchilada recipe has been a staple in our household for many years.  It is not a true enchilada recipe as it uses flour tortillas instead of traditional corn tortillas, but it is easy to make,  delicious to eat, and can be made ahead of time.

E is for Eggs

One of my favorite ways to repurpose leftovers is to make quiche.  In this case, I had some leftover chicken, half a package of baby spinach, and half a package of mozzarella cheese.  The results?  A delicious dinner with leftovers for lunch the following day.

Copycat Panera Thai Chicken Salad #SundayFunday

 I think that of all the fast-food options available, the one we enjoy most often is Panera.  I feel that they offer more nutritious food that is not only quick but also colorful, healthy, and delicious.  This Thai Chicken Salad was one of my favorites, but the last time I visited, it was no longer on the menu.

A Recipe Redo for the 5th Day of Christmas

My brother Dick was in Nashville during our Santa Party this year.  He lost his wife, my dear sister-in-love, Jackie, this past August, and I think it was too painful to attend our family gathering without her.  We all understand.  This was a huge loss for our family.

Before he left, we had him over for dinner.  Just the three of us, seeking to comfort each other, sharing memories of dinners and Christmases past.

Honey Sesame Chicken

I made a simple meal of  Baked Honey Sesame Chicken served with Steamed Rice and Stir-fry vegetables.  This is a delicious dish and one that I make a few times each year.  I first shared this recipe with you in 2014, when I made it for a Try It Tuesday.

The recipe format I used back in 2014 is no longer printable, so I am resharing many of my recipes in a new, printable format.  I hope you enjoy it.  Happy Christmas!!
