Yummy, easy honey nut chicken

To be honest, I didn't have any nuts, so I did mustard in the egg/honey mixture instead, but this was super moist and soooo easy. Eric and I liked it, and it was really short prep time and dinner was ready in less than an hour. I'll just post the link so you can change the serving size if you need to.

Stuffed Mushrooms

My friend made these for a girls night we had a couple of weeks ago and they were so good, plus sooo easy.

1 pound sage sausage
1 package cream cheese
mushrooms

Brown sausage, mix with cream cheese and stuff in mushrooms. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

Kitchen Gadget

Hey everyone, I'm looking to purchase a wok sometime in the near future. I've been looking around on the net and wanted to know if any of you have recommendations. In a way I'd like an electric one, though many people complain they don't get hot enough to truly sear the food. I have come across one that many reviews claim that gets hotter than other electric woks. Or do I just go with the traditional stainless steel stovetop wok? Remember, I'm not working on a gas fire stove here, so on an electric stovetop it still might be hard to get it up to the higher heat...maybe?

I have no idea.

Hawaiian Chicken

Ingredients:

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups pineapple juice
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Directions:

Spray slow cooker with non-stick spray. Mix the ingredients & pour over chicken in slow cooker. Cook 4-6 hours on low or until chicken falls apart easily. Shred & serve over rice with your choice of steamed vegetables (I love it with zucchini & squash). (If you prefer, you can use pineapple in addition to the juice. My family hates pineapple, though, so I just use the juice for flavor).

Pretend Like It's the Weekend

Here's a recipe our family loves and that I can tell you right off the top of my head. I've never been a bananas or a pancakes lover, but I really do love these banana pancakes. We always make a double batch and then stick some in the freezer for quick heating later in the week.

Brainless Banana Pancakes

1 c flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 1/4 c milk
1 banana
1 tbsp sugar

Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl, set aside. Mash banana in medium bowl, mix in milk and sugar. Whisk banana mixture into dry mixture. We've found these cook best on our griddle rather than right on the stove. They are great with butter and real maple syrup, or garnish with fresh fruit.
