Tuscan Chicken and Veggies - CEiMB




When I saw this was picked and who selected it, I knew, this was going to be a winner.  Margaret is someone I admire a great deal and trust whatever she chooses, to be delicious.  Check out her blog and you will understand why I say this.

Ellie has come through, in the past, with her meat and poultry recipes and I was looking forward to eating this one.  I was not disappointed.  She highlighted tomatoes and zucchini as her vegetables of note.  As tomato lovers, this was fine.

I actually have made this twice already.  That means, it is a successful recipe and I think it is one that most people would enjoy.  It is not elegant or elaborate.  It is simply good food with good flavor.

    We really liked this one too! Next time I am going to add onions to mine however. I thought it needed just a touch more flavor. Yours looks delicious.

    We used this recipe as a side dish, omitting the chicken. It was so good. The veggies had heaps of delicious flavor.

    I agree, Chaya, Margaret is definitely one to trust :D Between her and Ellie, I knew it would be a winner, and the dish didn't let me down. Nice job!

    I love simple homey dishes like this. And since I got injured, I'm drawn to one-dish recipes that are quick and easy to make. :-)

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
