Meal Three: Chicken Thighs with Pancetta, White Beans, and Rosemary

  Very tasty winter fare, Chicken Thighs with Pancetta, White Beans and Rosemary made a good meal.  Israeli couscous and broccoli completed the plate. Fun this week: seeing how this tester recipe, Chicken Scarpaiello , was finally published - Chicken Scarpaiello.   Our version had more hot cherry peppers and more parsley,  Maybe we contributed to the final outcome! 

Meal Two: Beef Enchilada Casserole

  A frigid week seemed like a good reason for warm Mexican food.    Beef Enchilada Casserole was the right choice.  The crowd always seems to appreciate this Homemade Red Enchilada Sauce , which really is simple and tastes great.  We had beans and salad and finished off the meal with homemade brownies from the chef.  Yum. The biggest excitment seemed to be regarding the arrival of squeezable sour cream.  It was a game changer.  

Meal One: Southern-Style Smothered Chicken

  A yummy start to the new year.... Smothered Chicken .   We added rice, sauteed spinach and rolls.  It was complete with fresh baked cookies!  Our guest from California enjoyed a fine meal on a cold Maine night.

Happy New Year

Another year of good eats ahead.  Welcome 2016.

Meal Twenty-Three: Chicken Shepherd's Pie

  Our 2015 Finale was a tasty twist on Shepherd's Pie ... chicken!  It was lots of chopping and shredding, but delish!  Some great dinners rolls and desserts rounded out the meal.  What a great year!

Meal Twenty- Two: Spicy Sausage, Chicken and Bean Pot

  Spicy Sausage, Chicken & Bean Pot was well loved comfort food as we head into winter.   Popular with the whole gang, chicken, sausage and plenty of flavor!

Meal Twenty One: Crunchy Fish

  this was tagged "best version ever" by Tigger, despite the TREMENDOUS mess Eeyore makes when she cooks a little tipsy.    the standard sides of roasted potatoes and broccoli slaw were accompanied by a childhood friend of Owl's.  Birthday Whoopie Pie was also enjoyed.
