That Cooking Chick

Italian Crockpot Chicken

This dish is SO simple! I found it a long time ago in one of those paperback recipe books you can get when you are checking out at a grocery store (I give in if they have pretty pictures on the front... I can't help it!), but forgot about it for a while. Lucky for me (and my husband... and you!), while I was pinning my heart away, I stumbled upon this post over at Stick a Fork In It. My husband just loves it. His favorite way to eat it is over pasta, but sometimes I will serve it over … [Read more...]

Coconut Sautéed Green Beans with Tomatoes

April 22, 2011 By Hazel 5 Comments

I have a snazzy giveaway planned very soon, but first I wanted to show off a couple yummy recipes I have made so far with this not-so-secret giveaway item! This is the first recipe I whipped up when I received the product and wow, it rocked my socks off. I love green beans, but sauteeing them up with tomatoes and other yummyness just put em over the top. Honestly though, I don't think I had ever cooked fresh green beans until this recipe. Crazy, I know, but I'll be making them much more often … [Read more...]
