Chicken Enchiladas

By Ali | Published: June 13, 2012

A couple of weeks ago I was on the search for good prep and freeze meals for a dear friend.  Annie has a great post about stocking the freezer with make ahead meals that I found extremely inspiring and helpful.  So much so that I made two of her recipes, these enchiladas included.  Surprisingly enough I’ve never made [...]

Peanut Noodles with Edamame & Chicken

By Ali | Published: May 21, 2012

I have to say that one of my faults in the kitchen is that I rarely venture out from my comfort zone.  I usually stick with Italian, Mexican and maybe French cuisine.  I have always been hesitant to venture into the more Eastern flavors.  So when I came across this easy Asian inspired noodle dish [...]

Mustard Chicken

By Ali | Published: April 7, 2012

Growing up, mustard chicken was a famous meal, just ask my sisters.  We still talk about it today.  I’m not sure why we all loved it so much, there is nothing that extraordinary about it, it’s just really tasty.  In fact, Mama Cheater Bite just made it up one day.  For some reason it’s been [...]

Crockpot Pulled Chicken BBQ

By Ali | Published: March 15, 2012

Growing up, a crockpot was a foreign concept to me.  It wasn’t an appliance in our house.  Now that I am in charge of feeding myself and my husband, I ask myself why…why was the glory of this handy appliance not in my life until now?  It’s pretty awesome.  You can throw a bunch of [...]

Chicken Pot Pie is one of my absolutely favorite fall dinners.  The yummy, thick filling stuffed with veggies and earthy flavors and a buttery crust on top is just the perfect marriage of flavors and textures.  Though this recipe requires numerous steps, everything can be done over a 2 or 3 day period, so it [...]

As far as I’m concerned, there aren’t many people out there who don’t love a big dish for chicken parm…all that yummy cheese and sauce – delish!  I am always hesitant to order it out at restaurants because it tends to be a bit more heavy than I prefer (think lots of breading, fried in [...]

Grilled Chicken Thighs with Green Olives and Sherry-Orange Sauce

By Ali | Published: September 16, 2011

Chicken thighs are: a) really great, b) cheap and c) super easy to cook, thus making them a weeknight staple for me.  They stay juicy no matter how long you cook them and the dark meat is able to hold up with bolder flavors, as opposed to breast meat.  In this recipe, the fresh flavor [...]
