Making the easiest ("real") dinner ever ...
If you’ve read this blog for any length of time, you know that cooking does not come easily to me. (We’ve eaten a lot of bowls of cereal for dinners over the years.)
But God is graciously growing me up and by the time I reach 40, I think that I may even have a few “easy” meals in my cooking repertoire. (Hooray!)
One of them is A Year of CrockPotting’s Brown Sugar Chicken–easily one of the easiest recipes I’ve ever made in my life (especially when you use a crockpot cooking BAG so there is literally NO clean up).
Add in Costco’s organic brown rice medley and yum yum! I feel so domestic AND I get to serve my family (and a guest too!). What a grace.
Please check it out and let me know if you ever make it. I – even I, Tara of “I never have recipe components in my shelves because I don’t cook a lot” Tara-ness – had all of the ingredients without having to shop.
Yum yum! No cereal for dinner tonight – for the first time since we’ve been home this week! (Oh, oh ... poor Fred. Glad he’s such a gracious, grateful hubby.)
Happy Thursday!
Love,
Tara B.
