I’m always looking for new things to do with chicken. I’ve made it clear that I’m not a lover of chicken but I have a hard time coming to terms with that since it’s a pretty affordable and versatile protein. My main “beef” (no pun intended) with chicken is that the next day it [...]

Hello all –

Sorry for my absence… I’m battling some sort of flu/cold combination and all I’ve been eating is chicken noodles soup out of the can (minus the chicken, noodles and vegetables). It hasn’t been that bad, mostly a fever and headache but cooking is not so much a priority as laying on my [...]
