Chicken and Potato Chip Bake

By -

This recipe is very simple, quick to prepare, and also tastes very good.

 It is a handy "stand-by" in case you have unexpected visitors, and is a great family meal, and always impresses visitors!

 It is one of those recipes that just keeps improving each time you reheat it, so make double  the quantity, and freeze it, or eat it for several days.

 You could also add bacon or chorizo, for even more taste, and this would need to be browned first before adding to the rest of the meal.

 Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 60 minutes
Makes: 4-6 servings

 Ingredients
6 x skinless chicken thighs
½ cup chutney (any)
¼ cup mayonnaise (a good one)
¼ cup tomato sauce
Tsp curry
Potatoes (optional)

 Instructions
Clean the thighs, and cut them again in half as they are usually large - take off some of the fat, and place the thighs in an ovenproof dish.

 Add the other ingredients plus a bit of salt and pepper if desired.

Mix this until it is smooth, and all mixed together.

Preheat your oven to medium.

 Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken, and mix it so that the chicken is coated everywhere.

If you are putting potatoes on top (optional, however I thought it saved dirtying another pot, and would taste nice when browned), microwave them, cut them into slices, and place them over the top of the chicken.

Cover this with foil, and bake for about 45 minutes on a medium heat.  Take the foil off and bake for a further 15 minutes.  I actually put it under the grill for a few minutes to brown the potatoes.  This made them crispy and yummy!

I served it with microwaved broccoli, and a home grown cucumber salad.

POTATO SALAD WITH PEANUT BUTTER

By -

Potato salad makes a perfect side dish, or snack, however I ate this one with bread and some raw salad as a main meal. I often eat potato salad and you will find several recipes on my blog for different versions of potato salad. I like anything with potatoes in it and my recipes will reflect this - I far prefer potatoes to the sweeter, more healthy sweet potatoes! Potato salads are also great to take on a picnic with some thickly sliced buttered bread! This recipe has no mayonnaise in it like a conventional one, and is a nutty version of a conventional potato salad. Once again, I have used one of my favourites, peanut butter and I now always buy the "no added sugar" version of this amazing ingredient. Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 10 minutes Makes: 3 servings, as a main Ingredients 3 medium potatoes 3 tbsp crunchy peanut butter (I used a natural one which is not as sweet as supermarket ones) ½ tbsp whole grain mustard ½ tbsp vinegar 1 tbs

Raw Banana Chocolate Pudding - Healthy and Oh So Delicious!

Raw is currently the rage in cooking!  I have made some interesting recipes, though I have to admit some of them have failed! It is not so easy to get the right quantities of ingredients so that the sweet or dessert will not fall apart. I make a lot of bliss balls, as currently I am not eating much with refined sugar in them, and most of these raw desserts have no added processed sugars. This one also has chia seeds in it.  I love the texture of these seeds, and they are so easy to use in a variety of sweets and puddings.  They are also supposedly another of the new "super foods".  Their health properties include such things as Omega-3, antioxidants, fibre, iron and calcium.  They also contain some protein and are versatile in that they can be eaten both cooked or raw.  However they should be added to another food or soaked before eating them. Raw foods are the latest health craze and many of them use obscure ingredients.  However this recipe uses ones you will poss

Prawns and Chorizo on Wilted Spinach

This is a one pot recipe that can be served for any occasion as a meal, or even as an accompaniment to something else. I have added a hint of chili making it slightly spicy, however this can be left out if you are making it for the whole family, as it is still very tasty with the flavours of chorizo, prawns and vegetables. I like food that has a bit of a "kick" in it, and often add chili or a hot sauce to recipes I am making.  I also have fresh chilis on hand often as a friend grows these and has an abundance of them. This recipe is served on a bed of wilted spinach and is a balanced meal having the vegetables and prawns all together.  I hate washing up, so I love to make recipes that use only one pot! Spinach is another vegetable I generally have growing in my garden, as it is very easy to grow most of the year round.  Spinach also complements many other ingredients including both vegetarian meals, and meat meals.  It is also high in antioxidants and minerals, and ha
