Chicken and Turkey

Welshing on the Rabbit becomes Welsh Wabbit (Think Chicken!)

I’ve watched a couple of my friends participate in a unique monthly event called a Recipe Swap. Each month they are given a recipe to start from and their challenge is to ‘swap’ out some of the ingredients to make the end result their own personal and updated take on the original recipe.

Mustard Glazed Chicken with Arugula and Bok Choy

I recently received a box of organic produce filled with some pretty standard fare including blueberries, oranges, sweet potatoes and onions (made an easy casserole with those two) and also included in that box was bok choy.

Curried Chicken Salad with Dried Cranberries and Toasted Walnuts

I first had this Curried Chicken Salad at a networking event I attended a couple of years ago. It was so good, everyone wanted the recipe and now it’s a favorite to use for leftover chicken. I modified the original a bit with the addition of some dried cranberries and toasted nuts; they added some [...]

Chicken Curry in a Hurry!

We have had the longest, coldest spring I can remember in Colorado and this past weekend was the worst. Not the worst weather but the worst because we should be enjoying the most beautiful balmy days yet instead the heat is running, there were 4 days of drizzle and I wondered if I had somehow [...]
