EASY Creamy Chicken & Spinach Pasta

Sometimes I wish I had the Staples easy button in my kitchen. I would come home from work, press my easy button, and BAM! My dinner would be ready, complete with healthy veggies and fiber filled creations, the table would be set, and all would be well in the world. Ahhhh yes... Unfortunately this will never be a reality (or will it? We've got robots, no? It might happen..no?) so the next best thing is the slow cooker (as I've mentioned) and super easy, healthy recipes, like the one I have for you today. This pasta comes out creamy and tasting like it's going to cost you 1000 calories. But it doesn't, which my ass is very thankful for. I believe it's from Chatelaine magazine, but don't quote me on that. Creamy Chicken and Spinach Pasta 1 T oil 12oz chicken breasts cubed (I used about 5 and cut them up, so much more then 12oz) 1 onion chopped (I used 2) 2 garlic minced 1/2 tsp pepper (who really measures this??) 2 T flour 1 can fat free eva

Red Curry Peanut Noodles

I was supposed to make this for dinner Thursday night, but we got lazy (ok, I got lazy) and ordered pizza instead. Friday, I didn't feel like cooking, so hubby was on bbq duty (veal chops..yum!). Saturday we went out all day, came home late, and only had enough energy for eggs, bacon and toast (I love breakfast for dinner). So here we are, Sunday evening. Hubby has been sleeping on the couch all day after a grueling soccer game in the heat this morning (they won, 6-2, he got one goal) and my daughter and her friend (who is staying for dinner) are out playing at the park. It's the perfect time to make a quick, tasty dinner. So Red Curry Peanut Noodles it is! Thanks Chatelaine ! Red Curry Peanut Noodles - Chatelaine Magazine Red Curry Peanut Noodles 1/2 pkg spaghetti (I used a full box) 1/3c peanut butter (I used 2/3's of a cup) 3 T curry paste (I used 6 T of thai red curry paste) 3 T soy sauce (I used 6 T) 2 T honey (I used 4 T) 1 T veg oil (I used EVOO

2019 Resolutions Update

I don't have any recipes to post today - interestingly enough the hubby has been taking care of dinners lately (and I am so very ok with that!!). That's why I haven't posted much, but to stay on top of my resolutions I'll do a quick post now... 2019 Resolutions Finances 1. Get out of debt - minimum payment of 300/month with additional ideas and ways to increase payments listed below - this is going well; I've managed to put more than the minimum on so far 2. Do various challenges - spending fast, pantry challenge - money saved goes on to debt - currently challenging myself to keep groceries below $400 - I succeeded for January with a total for the month of $254.01 3. Buy second hand, no new books all year - nothing purchased yet! 4. Do all survey receipts, petro points receipts - use points accumulated for gift cards, extras for us (a want not a need) - currently have $125.15 in petro points (started the year with $121) 5. 20 minutes a day for swagbuc
