This woman does not like wasted food. And I'm not interested in preventing waste by eating so much that it adds to my waist! I purchase carefully, then work to use up every scrap and extra bit in other meals.
I found myself with the following:
- 3. c. spinach, nearing the end of its life
- 2 T. minced garlic
- 1.5 cups chopped and boiled potatoes (leftover from this)
- 3 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce (leftover from countless recipes)
- 4 boneless chicken breast halves
- Chipotle-Peach Honey Glazed Chicken
- Garlic Smashed Potatoes
- Sauteed Spinach
Chipotle-Peach Honey Glazed Chicken
- 4 boneless chicken breast halves
- 3 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, roughly chopped
- 1/3 cup peach creamed honey (a great artisan brand here)
We didn't need all four breasts, so I reserved two for use in other recipes. The chicken is super easy to freeze. Just make sure your container is air-tight and use your chicken within 2-3 weeks.
Garlic Smashed Potatoes
- 1.5 cups chopped and boiled potatoes
- 1 T. minced garlic
- 1/3 c. non-fat milk
- 1/3 c. light sour cream
Sauteed Spinach
- 3 c. spinach
- 1 T. olive oil
- 1 T. garlic
- Dash salt

Looks delicious. You should be on "Chopped" sometime (FOX) when 4 chefs compete with a chest or box of dissimilar items to prepare a meal.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was good - a nice blend of flavots. The true master of blending "stuff" is my friend, Stacie. She's amazing.
ReplyDeletewell, someone needs to be on Chopped. Adella LOVES that show. She wants to be a judge because she wants to taste how people make such great food with "wierd" ingredients. You dinner sounded fantastic, even if my IBS wouldn't allow me to have it.
ReplyDeleteThat is too bad!
ReplyDeleteI know. Me and my IBS do NOT get along!! lol Oh well, such is life. It is nice, however, to know that I wasn't crazy all those years when I thought something was wrong with my stomach!!
ReplyDeleteI am VERY eager to start having Adella get better around the kitchen and investigating. I can only imagine what her food will be like. Maybe when she is older we will have to send her down for a "food camp!"
