Grilled Cajun Chicken with Apricot Salad

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #143 On Saturday evening, we decided to enjoy some of our new produce.  D likes to have meat on his salad, so I did a Cajun dry rub on some boneless skinless chicken breasts and grilled them.  I sliced up two of the chicken breasts to add to our salad, and I saved another chicken breast for Sunday’s lunch, grilled Cajun chicken sandwiches.  I shredded the lettuce, diced the tomatoes, and shaved some raw cheddar cheese.  We received some beautiful apricots in our Bountiful Baskets order, so I sliced up a few of them for our salad. …

Using up Leftovers

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #137 As you can see from some of my recent posts (Apple Cinnamon Muffins and Frozen Banana Treats), I love to be able to use up any leftover food that we have.  I hate to see food go to waste.  For me, throwing away food is basically throwing away money.  That’s not to say that it doesn’t happen, but I try my best to make sure that I either use the food up or toss it in the freezer before it goes bad.  It’s pretty cool how many foods can be tossed in the freezer to extend…
