Default (relatively) HEALTHY, easy recipes..


anybody have any to contribute?

Here's one we like:
sage and thyme (50-50 mix. 1Tbs each should be more than enough for a large family. I mix some and keep it on hand)
Chicken breasts
splash olive oil
cream of chix soup
mash potatoes

Sprinkle (not coat) chicken with herb mix. Cook on stovetop with a small splash of olive oil.
Heat Cream of Chix.
Place chix and potatoes on individual plates, pour soup over the top. YUM!

The cream of chix soup works as a lower fat sub for gravy and is pretty tasty..

I do the same meal with chicken or pork chops. With the pork chops though I brown them on the stove with onions. Then put it in a baking dish with the cream of chicken (or mushroom) soup mix. Bake it till the pork chops are super soft!! It is yummy

my aunt did that one day with a slow cooker. The pork chops fall completely apart, but it's pretty tasty! Not big on the fungus, so we stick to the chix variety of soup!

This is one of my favorite crock pot recipes. I've also tried it without the lemon, and that's good, too!

Lemon Honey Chicken

1 lemon
1 whole roasting chicken, rinsed
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup honey

1. Pierce lemon with fork. Place in chicken cavity. Place chicken in slow cooker.

2. Combine orange juice and honey. Pour over chicken.

3. Cover. Cook on Low 8 hrs.. Remove lemon and squeeze over chicken.

4. Carve chicken and serve.

VERY easy to make and delicious!

Taken from Fix It and Forget It page 181.

My mother took us to a buffet today and my kids ate crazy and they are so sick. Poor things. We are so used to eating healthy. I feel bad.

What did they eat? Don't feel too badly. Look at it as a valuable real life lesson. They will associate eating these unhealthy foods with being sick and will (hopefully) limit or avoid them in the future.

Fried chicken, roll, mac n cheese, soup, croutons, steak, cake, pudding, ice cream, cookies, ribs...probably others stuff but that's on the top of my head.
Yea I don't see them eating like that again. It looked like fun at first glance but it made them so sick. Makes you realize how good you actually eat after eating like that.

Subscribing because I love to eat, and will contribute some of mine (reletively healthy)

Great and simple fruit dip...Sour cream sweetened with brown sugar (just sweeten to taste)...really really good.
