Chicken Saltimbocca

The baby kid and I tried this dish at the grocery store one day when a nice lady who cooked it in the store offered some to us. We both liked it, and I thought I would try it at home. Everyone loved it, so it's a keeper!

The only thing I did differently is skip the fresh sage. It was very strong in the one I sampled in the store. I sauteed some dried sage in butter and then brushed it on mine,  and it was delicious.

I made pasta with remaining sauce for the kids, and hubs and I had roasted asparagus with ours!

Slow Cooking Enchiladas

This recipe was such a hit with everyone. It did take a little more prep time than most slow cooker recipes, and there weren't a lot of leftovers for the next day, but it was so good that it is definitely a keeper:

I don't do canned enchilada sauce, and this sauce was really good. I'm glad to find it, because I have been looking for one for a long time.

This was so delicious, I couldn't stop eating it. Literally. (I cleaned the kids' plates for them.) I can't wait to make it again! 

CrockPot Orange Chicken

Going to give this one a try this week!

Teriyaki Sauce/Chicken Recipes

I found a homemade teriyaki sauce recipe that is good. I am really excited for the ease and convenience of not having to buy it at the store, not to mention the lack of additives found in prepared sauces.

I used it in this chicken teriyaki recipe. I found "Japanese Blend" veggies in the frozen section of Publix to saute with some soy sauce to add to the chicken.

I doubled the chicken recipe so that tomorrow night we can easily have this chicken fried rice dish. 

On an additional, positive note, I have also now learned how to spell "teriyaki." Happy.
