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.

Leftover Kabob Fajitas #SundayFunday

This delicious meal starts with leftover kabobs.  You can use chicken, beef, or a combination of both.  Slice up the leftover meat and vegetables, place in a crockpot with a package of fajita seasoning and some water, and enjoy your day.  When you are ready to eat, heat up some tortillas, and dinner is served.

 I was going to make cheesy potatoes one night for dinner but when I went into the freezer to grab the frozen hashbrowns I normally use I discovered I was completely out.  However, I did have a huge bag of tater tots and thought potayto, potahto....why not?

Welcoming 2024 on the 7th Day of Christmas with Sauerkraut with Bacon and Smoked Pork Chops

Happy 2024!!  We don't do much to ring in the New Year.  I'm a lightweight and staying up until Midnight no longer holds any appeal to me.  But we did celebrate with a "lucky" dinner of Sauerkraut with Bacon and Smoked Pork Chops.

Navajo Green Chile Pork and a Book Review

Last month our Sunday Funday blogging group celebrated Navajo Code Talkers Day.  I shared a recipe for Marinated Venison Steaks and gave a little background about the Navajo Code Talkers. 

Code Talker

Our host for that event, Amy of Amy's Cooking Adventures, mentioned that she had read a Memoir written by one of the Code Talkers.  I immediately ordered it up at the library.

Slow Cooker Butterscotch Pears #SpringSweetsWeek

This post is sponsored in conjunction with #SpringSweetsWeek. I received product samples from sponsor companies to help in the creation of the #SpringSweetsWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

These pears, made in a slow cooker, make your house smell delicious and free you up for prepping and serving dinner without having to worry about dessert.  When ready to serve place in a bowl and add a scoop of ice cream.  Life doesn't get much easier or more delicious than that.

3 Ingredient Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken and The Weekly Menu

This easy slow cooker recipe is great when feeding a crowd.  Only 3 ingredients and a few minutes of hands on time results in tender, flavorful chicken that can be served with tortillas and toppings, a side of rice or used in a casserole.  

Salsa Chicken

I served it up at the Teen's birthday party as one of the entrees with warmed flour tortillas, cheese, sour cream and guacamole so people could roll their own burritos.  There were 2 other entrees as well which meant that after feeding nearly 30 people there was still enough left to create a casserole for another  dinner for 4.
