skymama 35 #1 March 28, 2007 To continue today's theme... Salmon in Baja Chipotle marinade Fresh Spinach Wild Rice Corn The fresh spinach rice was a new recipe and is really yummy if anyone wants the recipe. I cooked the salmon on the George Forman grill. The best part is that this dinner only took 10 minutes to cook and cost less than $5 a serving. Dinner's done, the boy is washing the dishes and now I'm continuing to drink the Shiraz I had with it.

Shell666 0 #3 March 28, 2007 I'm thinking: Satay chicken skewers Spinach salad Risotto But I'll have to go get feta cheese and wine first which is okay since the chicken has to thaw anyway! Edited to add - pic of said dinner (sans skewers - forgot to get them when I went out for feta and wine!)'Shell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 259 #8 March 28, 2007 It's gringo Mexican night here. Ground turkey and kidney beans in a spicy "taco" sauce, "spanish" rice from a box, grated cheddar cheese and salsa from a jar all wrapped up in flour tortillas. Yum. And there's always leftovers so tomorrow's lunch and dinner will be yum as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 35 #11 March 28, 2007 You're such a good gringo! I take shortcuts all the time using boxed, canned and jared stuff. The marinade I used was Lawry's from a bottle.

But, every time I make brownies from the box, they all get eaten.

Shell666 0 #16 March 28, 2007 QuoteThat sounds great! How are the chicken skewers made? SUPER easy! Chicken breast (boneless, skinless, about 1lb) Sliced in strips (should make about 8 strips) 1/4 cup Catalina dressing 3 Tbsp peanut butter 1 Tbsp soy sauce 2 Tbsp chopped peanuts 1/4 cup chopped green onions Mix dressing, PB and soy sauce in large bowl. Add chicken, toss to coat. Refrigerate for about 10 minutes to marinade (or longer!) Thread chicken evenly onto 8 wooden skewers (SOAK first) or metal skewers EITHER preheat broiler and cook about 4 to 6 inches from heat for about 4 minutes on each side or BBQ (about same length of time on medium to medium high heat) or BAKE at 350oF for about 20 mins Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and green onions Serve with rice, risotto or WHATEVER you like! VERY yummy and very easy! Edited to add - I ended up BAKING these at about 350oF instead of broiling them. My yappy aunt called JUST after I put them in to broil ... 20 minutes on the phone with her and dinner was done JUST right!'Shell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stacy 0 #24 March 29, 2007 it's easy. defrosted two chicken breasts, and made a pocket in the top of them. stuffed it with feta cheese and cut up sun dried tomatos. put some olive oil in an oven safe saute pan and saute the onions and bell peppers in a bit of garlic to taste. When onions are cooked and peppers are soft, toss in a can of diced tomato (drained) and some extra sun dried tomato. I throw a little oregano in there and balsamic vinegar. I go heavy on the balsamic vinegar, but I love it. preheat the oven to about 375. toss the uncooked chicken breasts on top of the peppers and onion mix, sprinkle with paprika & black pepper, toss some more balsamic vinegar on top and ptu in the oven for about 30 minutes or so. I cook uncovered the first half then cover it up to keep moist. I also toss some extra feta in with the peppers sometimes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
