Baked Chicken Fajitas are suuuppper easy to whip together for a delicious weeknight meal. And its healthy too! I don't buy food magazines very often. Those things are so expensive. I have a hard time paying $10 for a monthly publication which is mostly ads and recipes I will never cook. I also have a hard time throwing them away. I mean I paid $10 for that thing! I am ...

BBQ Chicken Pouches
Well, word on the street is that the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers are headed to the Super Bowl. The word on the street also says that it will probably be a good game, too. I hear that people are already placing their bets on this big game. Thank goodness, there is "word on the street" to fill me in on these things, because I haven't the foggiest idea what's ...
Chicken Stock and Chicken Noodle Soup
Chicken stock is one of those basic kitchen practices that everyone should know. It's probably THE kitchen practice to know. It is liquid gold. It's a thing of beauty. It's full of flavor and it's delicious. It's also dang near free if you make it yourself. With Thanksgiving coming up, you are going to need a lot of chicken stock. I bet the average American spends $10 - $15 ...
In need of some comfort…Chicken Soup with Cheddar Rosemary Dumplings
Some days... things go wrong. Some days... you get a call from your husband at 5:30 am that goes something like this, " Honey...I think you were right" me: "What?" hubby: " I have a flat tire." me: " Is this the tire I told you to replace yesterday... on your day off?" hubby: "......... yeah" me: "...... I told you so" Some days.... you are very appreciative of good ...
PFB Challenge #2 – Chipotle Chicken Sushi (aka The EOTC Roll)
WooHoo! I made it past the first Foodbuzz Project Food Blog Challenge! You like me! You really like me!! Really, I am honored. So, for the next challenge we had to tackle a classic dish that was outside of our "comfort zone". So, spaghetti and meatballs wasn't an option. After Italy, the cuisine that is farthest from the deep South is either Asian or Indian ...
Roast Garlic Chicken and FoodontheTable.com and a Giveaway!
I know a lot of busy moms. Most of them have twins or triplets plus maybe a spare kid or two on top of that. They go to soccer practice and school functions, doctor's appointments and book club meetings, and many also hold down full or part-time jobs! They can use all the help they can get! These are exactly the women I thought of when Amanda from FoodontheTable.com contacted ...
Pizza Pot Pie
I would just like to tell everyone that my Mom is awesome. Yep, she's pretty stinking cool. I bet I call her at least twice a day. I'm not sure what I would do without her. Besides her youngest child, she also loves care packages. Every now and then she will send me something in the mail. It's one of the few things I enjoy getting in the mailbox. Yesterday though, Mom ...
Creamy Chicken Bacon Pasta
I'm getting pretty excited about this weekend. The Food Blog Forum is coming up and I'm excited about meeting all of these other bloggers out there. A little nervous too, but mostly excited now. I've got my camera batteries charging, a full tank of gas, and my friend Dawn's GPS ( because I always get lost in downtown Atlanta). Now the only thing left to do is figure out what ...
Asian Chicken Finger Drumsticks
The buzz is in the air. I think it has come with the cooler - if 89 degrees can be called "cooler" - temperatures. It's been tweeted, facebooked, and sent around in emails everywhere...football season is nearly here! More so than baseball, football is America's favorite past time. Or maybe I should say eating while watching football is America's favorite past time. There is ...
Hot Wing Wontons and a Saucy Mama Giveaway!!!
Now you guys know that I am a big fan of "free" and I figure that if a lowly food blogger is going to really enjoy food blogging life, you have to take advantage of a few of it's perks. As long as they are good ones. So, when Saucy Mama sent me an email a couple months ago asking me to participate in the Saucy Mama Cooking Contest ( there is a $1,000 ...
Roasted Chicken and Tomatoes
So, back in the spring, I bought a couple tomato plants at KMart and planted those tomato plants in the 3 square foot sunny spot in my yard. ( Really, that's all the sunny space I have) Well, they have become quite prolific. In the last week I have picked 7 or 8 tomatoes and I have probably another 10 or 15 that are still on the bush. So, for the last week I have been eating ...
Giveaway Winner and Roasted Garlic Lemon Pepper Chicken
Wow. What a crazy month this has been! I finally got back into town on Sunday after almost an entire month away from home. I have driven about 2000 miles in the last 28 days which is a feat that I never thought could be accomplished with two 3 year olds in the back seat. Thanks to the DVD player and copious amounts of ring pops, juice boxes, and crayons, we made it there and ...
Green Chicken Pie
Maybe...just maybe....my kids have finally reached that age where if they make it, they will eat it. Like the majority of mothers out there, I sometimes have a hard time getting them to eat what I put in front of them. Getting them to eat anything that isn't a potato chip or a cookie after nearly 2 weeks with grandparents and in-laws is nearly impossible. My kids are culinarily ...
Chicken Zucchini Pasta
Don't you just love an easy summery, pasta dish? Something you can throw together in a flash and it taste delicious? Me too! This super simple chicken and zucchini pasta is just one of those meals. You can even make this with leftover cooked chicken if you've got some lying around. If you don't have Herbes de Provence, feel free to substitute Italian Seasoning instead. ...
Simple and Delicious: Chicken and Rice with Peas
The last few days has been nuts. Just plain nuts. My husband turned 38 and we threw a little birthday party for him ( blog post coming soon). We had more barbeque than you could shake a stick at. We also had lots of friends and lots of kids and lots of fun. I don't think the hubby ever thought 38 would be so much fun. So, the leftovers from this party have been with us since ...
