Untitled. Untitled. Lazy Chicken and Potatoes. I used to be a meal planner… I would sit down over the weekend and plan out meals for the coming week, complete with shopping list and “do ahead” notes so that I would remember to prepare some meals ahead of time on busy days. Lately, I’m lucky if I know what I’m making for dinner before 5:00pm. I usually end up throwing something together at the last minute, hoping that it will turn out to be edible, and if I’m lucky, worthy of being posed on my blog. This week has been busier than most. I’m still amazed that I had the foresight to throw this dinner in the slow cooker on Tuesday morning.
Come Tuesday evening, though, my hubby and I were both glad that I had taken a few minutes in the morning to whip up a quick dinner. Let me tell you – it was not the first time that my slow cooker saved me from a sub-par fast food dinner because I was too busy to cook.

I did not hear about it until I got into college (around 11th or 12th grade). Around that time Hallmark made it presence felt, unavoidably so. Giving someone a Valentines card pretty much meant asking them to be your life partner!!
There was not much latitude in its meaning. And of course parents would never be happy to find out that their son or daughter gave or received a card. I don’t have any noteworthy memories of Valentines day other than watching and enjoying some girls giggling silly at the boys they secretly hoped would give them a card and get instant heroine status. Tikka Masala is a flavorful silky sauce with cream and tomatoes. What you need: For the marinade: 1 lb Chicken, cut into cubes 1 cup Yogurt 1 tbsp Cumin powder 1/2 tbsp Coriander powder 1/4 tsp Turmeric powder 3 cloves Garlic, 1/2 inch Ginger–made into a paste or grated 1 tsp Salt 1/2 tsp Chilli powder How to make it: Like this: Search results for "Tortilla Chicken Casserole" | The Foodie And The Family.

Or, chicken n’ dumplins’ rather, as we like to say in the South. I had been eagerly searching for a recipe like the kind I enjoyed so much growing up and this one, from TIffany (TK member Eat at Home), nailed it. There are many different versions of chicken and dumplings and this is definitely the one that reminds me of home. For this version, the dumplings are rolled out thin and sliced, rather than dropped biscuit-style into the bubbling chicken stock. The result is a creamy, thick chicken stew that is just perfect for chilly nights!
Try it and be converted to a dumplin’ lover forever. Another reason I love this dish so much? To make the dumplings, in a large bowl measure out 2 cups of flour … A half teaspoon of baking powder … And some butter! Then add a little less than a cup of milk and a pinch of salt. Mix the dough together and then roll out on a heavily floured surface. Then make criss-crosses so you have lots of cute little dumpling squares.
