I got the inspiration for this recipe (and most of the recipe from) Food Network Magazine: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/falafel-crusted-chicken-with-hummus-slaw-recipe/index.html So apparently, you can buy boxed falafel mix. It’s so cool! It SMELLS just like falafel. I did a little research and apparently this is the best brand (they have it at Henry’s/ Sprouts): So the basic idea [...]

Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup
Posted in Chicken, Soup on April 3, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
It was brought to my attention yesterday, during lunch at a delicious greek restaurant that my mom and sister have never had lemon chicken orzo soup (aka Avgolemono) and that I never posted about it! I really, really like this soup, but I make it all the time because my BF LOOOOVES it. It’s a very [...]
Enchiladas Verdes + Tomatillo Salsa
Posted in Chicken, dressing/ sauce, Mexican, slow cooker on March 20, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
So I don’t remember how I stumbled upon Pati’s Mexican Table blog, but you should definitely check it out. I used her recipe for the enchiladas and the tomatillo salsa in this post. The enchiladas are kind of a PITA, but they were delicioussssss. The salsa, on the other hand was easy and I am [...]
Roasted Chicken and Veggies

I sincerely apologize for being so absent lately, but I will make it up by posting TWO times today. First off, roast bone in chicken w/ veggies. Very easy, and very delicious. I hadn’t ever roast any bone in chicken before, but I had some leftover bone in breasts in the freezer after my disaster [...]
Buffalo Chicken Sammies + Bleu Cheese Dressing
Posted in Cheap, Chicken, dressing/ sauce, Sandwich, slow cooker on May 5, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
I saw a recipe in Real Simple a few months ago for buffalo chicken sandwiches and jotted it down on my list of things to try out. I was feeling lazy and decided to take a crock pot route instead of following the RS recipe. I found this one on allrecipes.com, which I followed for [...]
Chicken Chow Mein

Holy crap, I made a stir fry dish that didn’t suck (not including fried rice)!!! Five or six years ago, while simultaneously being so excited and so overwhelmed at IKEA, I stumbled upon a wok. FOR $5! So crazy! I had to buy it. I was so excited about my new smart purchase that I [...]
Fettuccine Alfredo

Last night I made Fettuccine Alfredo… for the first time ever, which is weird, because I LOOOOOVE it. The reason I never made it is that it’s sooo bad for you, I reserved it for a treat at a good Italian restaurant. Then I found this amazing (believe me) recipe for this low-cal FA that [...]

One of the BF’s fav foods is lasagna. I’m not a huge, huge fan, but I thought I’d be a good little house girlfriend and make some for him. I got the following recipe from a friend (thanks Steph!): Ingredients 1 pound sweet Italian sausage 3/4 pound lean ground beef 1/2 cup minced onion 2 [...]
Chicken “steak”
Posted in Asian, Chicken on November 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
There is this Filipino dish I absolutely love (beefsteak) but since I gave up beef years ago (personal reasons), I haven’t had it since and that kinda sucks. Fortunately, I found some thinly sliced chicken breasts in Chinatown. I mean RICE PAPER thin. I marinated the chicken for a day by the way: Soy sauce [...]
Spicy chicken with vermicelli noodles
Posted in Asian, Cheap, Chicken on October 7, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I cheated. I bought marinated chicken from an Asian market this past weekend. I HATE using anything prepackaged so I’m not too sure why I caved in and bought this chicken. I was craving something similar to what I’ve had at Korean fast food places and I figured it shouldn’t be too difficult to make [...]
