Bitchin in the Kitchen,  Tex

Food

Craig was the Oneiest One Year Old that ever Oned today, and so all I’ve got left in me is a recipe post.  Here’s what the RG fam is having this week:

Saturday night, we had Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps.  I skipped the quinoa, mostly because I forgot to cook it.  Still delish.  Loved this one.

Slow Cooker Huli Huli Chicken.  This we had tonight. I made mashed sweet potatoes and steamed broccoli to go with.  It calls for skin on, bone in chicken, but I had skinless, boneless thighs already so I used those . . . mistake.  This managed both to be falling apart and also pretty dry.  I should have seared it or something.

Cauliflower Chowder.  This is an old fave – I made it today, we’ll eat it this week.  I skip the bacon, but add Tony Chachere’s Cajun spice.  I also use an immersion blender at the end, leaving just a few chunks.  Tastes like mildly spicy potato soup.

Skillet Basil Cream Chicken – another repeat.  This is the one with the sauce you could pretty much drink in a mug.  Mmmmmmm.  Using up the last of my home grown basil.

Southwest quiche – this was a Full of the Dickens suggestion, and so I made two of these today.  We’ll reheat and eat later this week.  It smelled amazing.  Thanks, FOTD!

Chicken korma – I just use a jarred simmer sauce and serve over rice.

Okey dokey artichokey.  Catch you Monday, after I’ve slept off some of this dealing-with-toddler-exhaustion.

    Welcome! Glad to have you! I dial down the lawyerin’ for obvious ethical reasons, but there’s a lot of that going on in life too! And seriously, do the basil cream chicken (or tofu or whatever) – you’ll never regret it.
