Four Freezer Friendly Chicken Marinades You’ll Love

By //  by Candace Sampson

I can't tell you how happy I am that I made up a huge batch of these freezer friendly chicken marinades back in May. This summer has been a bit of a pisser to say the least. It has been raining pretty much non-stop since June and there's no sign of it letting up. Needless to say, when the sun makes a brief and glorious appearance, I want to be outside enjoying it, not stuck in my kitchen preparing a meal.  I'm a big believer in planning ahead for meals to save sanity (you should …

Monterey Chicken Fajitas

Monterey Chicken Fajitas

By //  by Candace Sampson

I've moved from getting my husband to do all the cooking around here, to enlisting help from the kids. I figure with three other people helping in the kitchen I may not need to cook another meal until sometime next year. It can never be said that I'm not smart when it comes to running a household. I'm a firm believer of getting kids in the kitchen with you from an early age. In addition to giving mom a break, teaching kids to cook provides them with important life skills. To get kids in …

Spicy Chicken Puff Recipe

By //  by Life In Pleasantville

This tasty treat came about one day after I rummaged through the fridge and found leftover chicken, some puff pastry, and a block of cream cheese. Sometimes the best snacks come about when you raid the fridge to see what you can find. A spiced cheese topping bakes right into the puff pastry, adding loads of really great flavor for you to pile your fresh ingredients on top of. While I went with a kind of spicy riff here along with avocado and fresh tomatoes, you could also try substituting …

Campbell’s 20 Minute Chicken And Rice Dinner

By //  by Candace Sampson

Growing up, I remember there being a lot of Campbell's Soup in my house, but I don't recall eating a lot of soup. I guess that's because my mother was using Campbell's Soups as the start of something spectacular for weeknight meals long before "semi-homemade" became trendy. Tomato soup in meatloaf, Cream of Broccoli in her Broccoli, Chicken and Rice, and Cream of Mushroom soup in her to-die-for Pot Roast. So, it's fair to say that Campbell's has been a part of my family long before the …

#Dinnerin15 Grilled Tex Mex Sandwich

By //  by Candace Sampson

Dinner in 15 is no joke in this house. It's a real occurrence twice a week when my children fly through the door after school and have exactly 30 minutes to get changed, eat and then leave for their four hour cheer practice. Dinner has to be perfectly planned to include three key elements—it must be fast, it must be nutritious and it must be portable if we're rushing out the door. That's where Maple Leaf Prime Oven Roasted Chicken Strips come in. Perfectly cooked and ready to go they are …
