Good morning all!
Hope no one minds if i jump in! I have not posted much on the community board, but I would love to get to know all of you!
I post a lot on a similar thread to this over on the budget board, but I usually feel that my meals are not budget-y enough, so maybe I will come play over here for a while!
Welcome! I'm Aimee, no kids yet - just me, DH, and the 3 more adorable (spoiled) dogs in the world.
Could you post a recipe for this, pretty please?
It's from this thread awhile back - I of course have NO idea whose it was but it was DELICIOUS! DH loved it and ate two big bowls. Def a keeper for us, and one I may pass onto my best friend who's always looking for easy one dish meals.
Chicken Sausalito
Vegetable cooking spray
4 boneless skinless breasts, cut into cubes
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 tsp. minced garlic
2 Tbsp. flour
1 - 15 oz. can black or red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
2/3 c. chopped tomato
2 - 3 Tbsp. salsa
1/2 c. reduced fat sour cream
salt & pepper to taste
3 c. cooked rice
Garnishes: salsa, chopped avocado, sliced green onions and/or finely chopped cilantro or parsley
Spray a large skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat until hot. Saute chicken, onion and garlic until chicken is cooked, five to eight minutes. Sprinkle chicken with flour and cook one minute longer.
Stir in beans, tomato, salsa and sour cream. Cook until hot, one to two minutes. Season to taste with salt & pepper, spoon over rice and garnish
Rogue- I don't know how to make brown rice taste good either. I hope someone here has advice, Erica cannot have white rice and the rest of us should not. The girls fixed it with dinner one night and my DH, who would have scored it as a -5 on a scale of 1 to 10 if I had cooked it choked it down and later that night scarfed down a sandwich when the coast was clear
My DH hates it, too. If I am determined to have it, I make a boil in the bag one for me and minute white rice for him.
I love the brown rice at Pei Wei - they do something diff than I do. Course the cups of soy sauce I drench it with probably makes a difference too...
Welcome to our "Newbie's" !
Hey Y'all, More prayers for Alexis are needed. The lab results came up blank. Nothing, nada! They have scheduled an ultra-sound for her today. Please say some prayers that they don't find anything bad & that she'll just stop running fever & having stomach pain.

Oh rats. I'm sorry
Here is my sesame chicken recipe:
For the chicken I marinade it is sesame oil, soy sauce, a little brown sugar, and a couple of garlic cloves. Then I usually grill it on the george forman, but this summer I am going to learn how to use my real, never been used grill- I'm sure it would taste better.
For the peanut sauce
1/4 c. peanut butter
1/4 c. soy sauce
pinch brown sugar and cayenne pepper
1 tsp vinegar (I think I use more)
1/2 tsp sesame oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/8 c. water, I use hot to loosen up the peanut butter.
I play around with all my recipes, so it's usually not the same twice, unless I'm baking. My husband takes the leftovers in a wrap with lettuce for lunch.
I think I learned about Sweet Baby Ray's bbq sauce from someone here- thanks, it's now a staple in our house until I find a recipe I like to make my own.
Looks delicious!!!
