MasterChef Week 2 Recap & Whitney's Buttermilk Fried Chicken Recipe: SELFy Stars: New at Self Seven Things Successful, Happy People Do: SELF Reports From the THRIVE Conference via @SELFMagazine Seven Things Successful, Happy People Do: SELF Reports From the THRIVE Conference : Arianna Huffington and Mika Brzezinski’s two-day conference is helping hard workers take some time for themselves. #SelfMagazine Huffington Post founder and media maven Arianna Huffington knows all about getting the corner office, but it wasn't until she suffered from a few injuries at work that she realized she wasn't focusing enough on herself -- or getting enough sleep. Honey Glazed Chicken and Bacon Bites I had an idea. Actually, it was more like my three hundred and forty-sixth idea for this month and I now have the hips to show for it. No biggie, I consider it a small sacrifice for eating food that tastes this good. So I asked myself: “Would it be a really crazy idea to wrap loads of bacon around chicken strips and brush them with a spruced up honey marinade?”. See, now that’s what happens when you blog from your desolated home or kitchen (in the burbs). Anyway, it turned out nothing short of a phenomenal idea that I simply have to share here in my little corner of the www. Ingredients: 1 pound boneless chicken breasts 20 thin bacon slices 3 tbsp honey 2 tsp coarse mustard fresh lemon juice Optional: salt Directions: Cut the chicken breasts—or fillets, as we call them here—in thin strips. Note: I’m using the Dutch equivalent to bacon in this recipe. Grab a bowl and combine 3 tbsp honey with 2 tsp coarse mustard. Squeeze in some lemon juice. Bacon rights all the wrongs in this world.
Thermomix Apple Crumble Recipe This all-time favourite makes the whole family happy: Thermomix Apple Crumble is so easy to prepare that you can even get the kids involved, and it will certainly put a smile on dad's face! And who doesn't like apple crumble? Being such a traditional dessert, I find it perfect to serve to guests, especially when I invite new friends over and I'm not sure about what they do or don't like. Actually, many different kinds of fruit can be substituted for apples, and you can base your choice on whatever's in season, like peaches, plums and berries in the summer or pears in the autumn. Sometimes, I like to sprinkle berries on the top of my apples to make it more interesting, but something you really want to do, is serve your Thermomix Apple Crumble with Thermomix Custard or Thermomix Vanilla Ice-Cream. Ingredients For the apple filling - 350 gr Peeled, Cored and Quartered Apples - 30 gr Butter - 25 gr Brown Sugar - 1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon Let's make our Apple Crumble Recipe Preheat oven to 160º C.
Garlic-Lime Chicken I’m flirting with going vegetarian. I’m reading up on different kinds of grains, beans and legumes. I dream about finding joy in bowls full of greens. I constantly (weekly) ask my husband if he thinks he could go meat-free (the answers are always inconclusive -or- NO). But for now, I’ll try and focus on eating healthier meats. Like chicken. If you’re anything like me, you eat a TON of chicken. I think chicken is the healthiest lean protein to eat (aside from fish – but I’m not in Seattle here) and one of the cheapest to get all natural, free range, or organic. This is where I run into problems. Here’s one that’s great. Garlic-Lime Chicken Adapted from All Recipes 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/8 teaspoon paprika 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/8 teaspoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves 1.

Baked Cheesy Chicken Bake Today’s recipe is a cheesy baked pasta that I found over at Our Best Bites . Sara based the recipe on a Martha Stewart recipe. This yummy dish consists of a cheesy pasta blended with chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, and mushrooms. Now I know the sun-dried tomatoes aren’t something most of you probably keep on had, so you could just leave them out if you like. Another great thing about this recipe is it makes two – 2 quart dishes. When I made this recipe I also decided to try it with some pasta samples that I had received from Ronzoni . Finally, the winner of the “Nourish Your Inner Goddess” giveaway from Yoplait and MyBlogSpark is: Kate who said: I always love any kind of berry yogurt. Congrats Kate!

Bourbon chicken? Sample?” You know those food court Chinese places that you pass in the mall that shove chicken on a toothpick in your face and practically force you try it even if it’s like 10am. Update: 7/24/2012: Yes, you may use boneless, skinless, chicken breasts instead of thighs. I won’t lie, it’s hard to refuse something like that. However, it’s not “real” Chinese food and I don’t like that they broadcast it like it is. Anyway, enough of my hating because we all know how obsessed I am with that stuff and as far from Chinese as it may be, I still get it whenever I go to Panda Express or am grabbing a quick bite at the food court. crockpot honey sesame chicken Author: Julie Wampler Recipe type: Slow Cooker Prep time: Cook time: Total time: Serves: 4 All images and content are © Table for Two. crockpot honey bourbon chicken, honey sesame chicken
