Cajun Chicken Sloppy Joe’s
Cajun Chicken Sloppy Joe’s is a wonderful weeknight meal! It’s easy to make, is done in less than 30 minutes, and is packed full of flavor. The Cajun seasoning really bring this dish together and is a wonderful spice. You can find it at your local Festival Foods or make a homemade version. It pairs well with so many dishes – pasta, shrimp, steak, chicken, etc. and has a bit of a kick. The bold, spicy flavor comes from the cayenne and the earthiness you tastes is from the herbs. Pair the Cajun seasoning with some ground chicken, corn, onions, and melted cheese, and you have a delicious sandwich. The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 250 degrees F. This is so you can melt the cheese and toast the buns before assembly. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground chicken and cook to completion, making sure to break … Continue reading

Mediterranean Chicken Bowls
I’ve been a big fan of “bowls” lately. For example, instead of eating a stuffed bell pepper, I would eat the ingredients tossed together in a bowl. Or instead of having an egg roll, the ingredients would be in a bowl….you get the picture. My most recent bowl idea is for a Mediterranean Chicken Bowl. It has a lemon-dill rice, wonderfully seasoned Greek chicken, a fresh cucumber and tomato salad, and yummy tzatziki sauce to bring it all together. The flavors are rich and vibrant, and incredibly fresh. It’s a light and healthy meal the whole family will love! The recipe can be found here. This is really a 4-part recipe. You must prepare the tzatziki sauce, cucumber tomato salad, chicken, and rice. I like to start with the tzatziki sauce and salad because those can be refrigerated while you prepare the chicken and rice. For the tzatziki sauce, combine the shredded cucumber, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, … Continue reading

Menacing Meals
Halloween is fast approaching – are you ready? We sure are. Halloween is a month-long celebration at our house. We decorate early, spend 31 days gorging on candy, watch every Halloween movie possible, and make some fun themed treats to enjoy. I want to share with you some of my new Halloween recipes and ideas for this year. Each is fairly customizable and will be sure to put your friends and family in a mood to celebrate. My first Halloween idea is for a Char-Spookery board. This is a traditional charcuterie board but with a spooky flair. To be called a charcuterie board, it must contain meat. Otherwise, it’s just a plain old board. What I like about charcuterie boards is how easy they are to put together and how customizable they are. Choose 2-3 meats, 3-4 cheeses, some fruit, nuts, olives, and maybe a few pieces of chocolate, and … Continue reading

Chicken Souvlaki is a classic Greek dish consisting of marinated grilled meat that is served with vegetables, creamy Tzatziki sauce, and pita bread. It is a low carb, low in fat and very fresh.

Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwiches
Chicken. Bacon. Ranch. Three things that pair amazingly well together. Combine them in sandwich form and you have one mighty fine meal. Think tender chicken, creamy ranch (which really goes with just about anything), and crispy bacon smothered between a bun with some melted cheese for good measure. This is what dreams are made of. I may be getting ahead of myself, but I do sure enjoy a good Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich! The recipe can be found here. Start by cooking the bacon according to package instructions. I like to move the bacon to a paper towel lined plate to absorb some of the grease and set aside until I’m ready to use. Add the cream cheese to a large saucepan or pot and heat over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally to melt the cream cheese. Once it’s about halfway melted, add the entire packet of ranch seasoning (Ugh, it … Continue reading

Cashew Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Cashew Chicken Lettuce Wraps are a delicious, low carb dinner option, and are better than takeout! That’s right…. I said it. Sometimes homemade meals are better than takeout. These lettuce wraps are restaurant style and come together in about 20 minutes. They are filled with tender chicken, cashews, ginger, garlic, and plenty of heat! Each lettuce wrap is full of flavor and make quite the healthy meal option. The recipe can be found here. Start by slicing the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Then, season with salt and pepper and set aside. An alternate option would be to substitute ground chicken or ground turkey if you prefer. You obviously don’t need to slice either of those but should still season with salt and pepper. In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken stock, soy sauce, ginger, hoisin sauce, rice wine vinegar, and cornstarch. Whisk until well combined and set aside. The flavors … Continue reading
