What do you do when you don’t have all the ingredients for something? Make up a recipe!!! I really wanted Alfredo pasta for dinner but didn’t have any sauce or ingredients to make the sauce. So I improvised. Thanks, Progresso! Like it? Share it!
Dear Readers: THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for making 2012 a fabulous first year blogging about food. I have truly enjoyed sharing my recipes and cooking experiences with you all.

For once I’m not going to write a very long post, as I think the blog from which this recipe comes from explains enough about it :) Analysis You may have to cook your chicken longer than 4-5 hours. I cooked mine all night the first time and it was perfect! The second time I […]

I love Aldi. Never have I been able to buy $30 worth of groceries while getting so much food (1-2 weeks for Cobalt and I, depending on the week).
