August Recipe Club

It's nice not to be living out of boxes and be settled in our new house so I can cook regularly.  I have been making a lot of meals for my family and enjoying lots of grilling options.  I have several new recipes I'd like to try for Fall - new soups, appetizers and lots of pumpkin recipes.

Our favorite August recipes:

GRILLED CHICKEN SALADS/WRAPS/PASTA

I marinate the chicken with BBQ sauce, Italian Salad dressing or seasoning and my husband grills it.  We end up with enough meat for several meals and only have to grill once.

 BIG SALADS:

cucumbers, eggs, noodles, sweet peppers, carrots, snap peas, broccoli, 

cauliflower, cheese, bacon bits and mixed greens.

 We usually do a lite honey mustard dressing or vinaigrette.

WRAPS:

Grilled chicken, lettuce, sliced swiss cheese and honey mustard

on a whole wheat tortilla was a delicious lunch

PASTA:

We ate pasta, grilled chicken and marinara sauce for lunch one day

and it was delicious!  I made the pasta in advance, the chicken was already cooked so it was a super easy lunch to whip up.

QUESADILLAS

shredded chicken, sharp cheddar cheese with all the fixings

I do the chicken in the crockpot, shred and season it with taco seasoning.

We have a TON of meals from one batch of crock pot chicken.

We also had taco bowls with chicken.
