I made this Orange Chicken on my Food Network show a few weeks ago, and I just realized yesterday that I'd never shared the recipe here on my totes cray recipe blog. So yesterday, as I whipped some...
A tasty chili recipe made in a slow cooker with a mixture of ground beef, onion, garlic, bell pepper, chili powder, cumin, tomato, beans, and jalapeños.
I make these late and often -- this is my back-pocket 10-minute meal after a very long day or a longer party. They're fast, good food you can eat with your hands. And because tacos often spill at random, you’re allowed to be slightly animalistic about the whole affair -- a very good perk, because no one has the energy for manners in the middle of the night. I felt odd making these in a well-lit kitchen and styling them for a camera -- they are at their best when cooked by dim, early morning kitchen light, and hastily -- but you’ll rectify that for me tonight, won’t you?
You know the old saying, "March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb?" Here in Pennsylvania, with a predicted high of 23 degrees on Thursday, we're still waiting for the roaring to die down.It's been hard to be a runner this winter, what with The Polar Vortex and the multitude of winter storms with ridiculous, Weather-Channel-generated names like "Maximus" and "Titan." But it's always a little easier to get out for a cold and/or snowy and/or blustery run when you know you have a warm and delicious meal (or reheatable leftovers from one) waiting in your kitchen.
I'm sort of making friends with my slow cooker this year. And I'm being kind of bratty about it, too! My goal is only to cook with a slow cooker when I can pretty much just sling a bunch of stuff
