Asian Honey Chicken

     I kept putting this recipe on hold because it has to marinate for 8 hours.  Finally one morning right when I got home from dropping the kids off, I stuck the chicken in the marinade.  Once that was done, it was actually a really yummy, easy recipe.  The secret ingredient is sesame oil....something I never knew existed.  I don't think it would taste quite the same without it.  I felt like we were eating at a Chinese restaurant....very tasty.

Will I Make It Again?  YES.

Crock Frijoles

I think that because I am who I am, I didn't like this recipe at all.  It's basically like baked beans, sort of.  I have no idea how to explain it, but since I don't like baked beans or pork-n-beans or anything like that, I didn't like this at all.  Layne and Matthew seemed to like it pretty good, but they didn't LOVE it either.

Will I Make it Again?  If we are starving and the only ingredients I have are what this recipe requires.....well, even then, I think I'd do something different.

Great Greek Pasta

This was a really yummy recipe that made a LOT of food.  Good thing too because we had unexpected visitors for dinner. 

Will I Make it Again?  YES!

Chicken and Artichoke Casserole

     This was a really yummy recipe.  I served it with green beans.  It had almost like a gravy over top of it which I think would have been good on mashed potatoes.

Will I Make it Again?  Yes, and I'll have potatoes with it.

Smashing Pumpkin Soup

I have to say after making a very bland Butternut Squash Soup a few months ago, I was very hesitant to make this soup.  But, it was extremely EASY and pretty tasty.  It reminded me of onion soup with a twist in flavor.  It was good.

Will I Make it Again:  YES

Crock Pot Italian Chicken

This was a really yummy recipe.  I loved the chicken.  It was cooked with potatoes and carrots which seemed odd to me for an Italian recipe.  I think if I made it again, I would cook only the chicken with the Italian seasonings and serve it with pasta and red sauce.  The chicken reminded me of chicken marsala.

Will I Make it Again: Yes, but not with the potatoes and carrots.

Chicken and Rice Chowder

This is another one that Layne ended up cooking for me.  It was good...a little on the bland side, but good.  It made a TON of soup, so Layne served it the next night with some added macaroni so the kids would eat it.  Last night he used it for Hawaiin Haystacks.  It was pretty good.
