Meal Fourteen: Chicken Tacos

Back to school time! What an incredibly nice summer.... it was tough to stay indoors and cook. Our Labor Day weekend started out great with
Easy Chicken Tacos.

This was a wonderful recipe that has inspired me to try more poaching chicken breasts rather than roasting in the oven. I like to cook up a few pieces just to have on hand for creating dinners. Lots of recipes call for purchasing a rotisserie chicken and shredding the meat for quick meals. I really like to cook it myself - tastes better, cheaper and probably a bit healthier as I think those store chickens are full of salt. Dory enhanced the recipe a bit - used the entire can of adobo chilies and the sauce was just great. Good heat, but not too firey. There were a few leftovers that made yummy lunches during the week.

We started out with guacamole & chips and also had some beans for a side. A lovely start to the new season of PD!

Meal Seven : Pork Chops with Tomato Gravy

This meal had a few doubters at the start, but it was a big success. Pork Chops with Tomato Gravy served over Cheese Grits ... southern goodness from a Yankee chef! The king kutter provided perfectly shredded cheese- as usual.

Meal Three: Pasta Bar

Pasta Bar gives plenty of yummy options our different eaters. There was even a special Birthday cupcake for my little guy... Banana with Peanut Butter Frosting homemade by T!

Meal Seventeen: Mm-possible Cheeseburger Pie

This was a favorite of Tigger's growing up. His Grandma would make it for him and even gave me copy of the recipe with her added notes (more cheese ... sometimes I leave off the tomatoes...) . Tigger has been missing his grandpa recently as he refinishes his old drafting table, so a little homage was a good solution. Its more known as Impossibly Easy Cheeseburger Pie today and some sauteed corn worked right along side. Hooray for childhood treats!
