Chicken with Fennel and Squash

Posted on February 4, 2011 by | 3 Comments

Here is another delicious recipe for the crockpot.  I have to say that browning the chicken brings back childhood memories for me of my mom frying chicken in the skillet on a cold day.  Just the smell is worth 1,000 words!

Fennel Citrus Shrimp

Sitting on our counter is a manila folder that is filled over an inch thick with various recipes clipped from magazines, newspapers, or internet sites that we’ve been meaning to try.  Some are “good to go” as they are, using all primal ingredients, while others are will require a little substitution (or a lot) to make them work.  And even the ones that are primal-ready won’t make their way onto our site without some tweaking, because that’s just our nature.  Plus, we’re going to make darn sure that we’ve cooked and approved them ourselves before we pass them on to anyone else.

This recipe is one from that folder, which only took a couple minor tweaks.  It’s quick to prepare, and can be used as a main course, an “accompanying” dish (think surf and turf), or over a mix of greens for an excellent lunch.  So let’s get started…

Here is a meal that works great when you don’t have a lot of time to prep or cook, but still want something interesting and flavorful for dinner.  In the time it will take you to thaw out a package of chops in the microwave, you can have the marinade mixed, and in the time it takes for the grill to heat up, you are done marinading and ready to cook.  So, let’s get started…

Roasted Fennel Summer Squash

Posted on October 14, 2010 by | 1 Comment

I have to admit, side dishes don’t get a ton of attention in our kitchen.  That’s not to say we don’t prepare them, only that it is just too easy to throw together a very simple salad along side one of our main dishes and call it dinner.  But with the end-of-summer CSA shares loaded with all sorts of good things right now, it is time to take a look beyond the salad and explore another wonderful and quick side dish that takes advantage of the season’s bounty.
