So, I’ve been a bit under the weather lately. My wonderful mother and friends have offered to bring me soup, but I declined. No way would I expose anyone to this awful crud! The one bright spot…I started craving Chicken Chipotle Corn Chowder. I must say…I haven’t always been the biggest soup fan. In the past, soup would be at the bottom on my list of things to eat. That is, until my sister in law introduced me to this recipe years ago. I officially became a soup defector right then and there! I love love love this soup and have been making it ever since! It has definitely made me feel better this week! Thank you Brandy!

Caesar Parmesan Crusted Chicken
Summer is slowly fading away and the kids are back in school. I don’t know about you but this first week back to school has wiped me out. I’ve really been cooking the easiest meals imaginable. One of those easy go to recipes is my Caesar Parmesan Crusted Chicken. Sometimes, I need a fresh take on the plain old boring chicken breast. I love Caesar salad and Caesar dressing so why not add that flavor to the chicken itself.

Rotisserie Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches
Most of you know that I have been spending a ton of time helping my mom with her new house. During this process she has been feeding me on the regular. I told mom, that I was gonna have to go home just to cook or I’m not gonna have anything to post on my blog AND my boys are going to starve…hehe! Well, instead of skipping out on my daughterly duties, I decided I would gather up some food to take and make for my mom. You know…kill 3 birds with one stone. Help my mom, make some food (cause we gotta eat), take pictures and write up a blog post!

Trying to Eat Lean-Greek Grilled Chicken Salad With Greek Yogurt Dressing
I’m on my ever present venture to try and eat lean. When I make a lean meal that I love, it ends up in my regular dinner rotation. We all know that a regular dinner rotation can become a bit stale. When that happens, I like to reinvent those meals that I love so much to add a little variety. What’s the saying…variety is the spice of life!

Don’t let that leftover grilled chicken go to waste…make BBQ Chicken Pizza!
We are pizza lovers in my household! Whether it’s take out, our favorite pizza stop, or homemade, we will eat it! I make all kinds of pizzas from really easy semi homemade to fairly easy from scratch. One of my favorite types of pizza to make is the kind that uses up the leftovers. As you know, I’m all about making my life a little easier. I figure, if I’m cooking up one meal, I might as well cook up a little extra to make it double duty. I just love being able to take something made earlier in the week and transforming it with ease (cause it’s already cooked) for a meal later in the week. Continue reading

Chicken Cordon Bleu Redo
If you know me at all, you know that I love Chicken Cordon Bleu. It’s my most favorite food in the whole world. My step-dad got me hooked when I was a child. I can remember him making Chicken Cordon Bleu with ham, Swiss cheese, and using crushed corn flakes as a breading. I love that hint of sweet from the cornflakes mixed with Swiss cheese. Over the years I have adapted and changed his recipe. I’ve used bread crumbs for the crust and the ever present toothpicks to hold it all together. I’ve baked it, fried it, and re-purposed it in many ways. I stick to the basic principles but love to test out new ways to make this classic dish.

Trying to Eat Lean-Easy Greek Grilled Chicken Pitas With Tzatziki Sauce
Trying to eat lean is no new concept to me. It’s definitely a battle of the wills. Sometimes that skinny girl stuck inside me comes knocking at my brain just begging for a chance. But most of the time, the chubby girl wins out in the end. In this particular case though, the skinny girl wants to come out and play. She might not stick around long but while she’s here I figure I better post what’s she’s cooking…Greek Grilled Chicken Pitas!
