Meal Two: Chicken Cacciatore

We learned this week that Chicken Cacciatore means "in the hunter's style" and that it is delicious- thank you Dory for education and sustenance!

This recipe had a few Chef modifications... cut the chicken into bite size pieces, add red pepper flakes and thicken the sauce with a bit of flour. All came together for a flavorful, saucy chicken over egg noodles. We even used up some of the red wine "cubes" I had hanging about in the freezer.

Frizz had a tough week at work, so she treated herself to a Hendrick's Gin and tonic. Some of us are still enjoying our Blenheim Ginger Ale's supply... a treat with Captain Morgan's and lime.

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 Ten: Skillet Macaroni with Zesty Meat Sauce

This was good easy fare for a rainy Summer evening. Skillet Macaroni with Zesty Meat Sauce gave us the chance to use our basil (which recovered from some type of animal attack earlier this season) and new pan. It was a generous portion with enough leftovers for everyone. We didn't want to be too simple for our skilled chef, so we added a bakery component. Garlic Cheese Biscuits from Paula Deen were perfect! These yummy little treats did NOT have any leftovers. Even our birthday boy Squirt noticed right when he walked in... "those look like the Bisquick biscuits my mom used to make", to which we responded "they are!"
