Chicken Kabobs

What is your favorite grilled food? Mine are kabobs, whether made with chicken, beef, seafood or lamb, I like putting together ingredients for kabobs.

My BFF from New Rochelle was visiting this weekend, so in addition to some “girl talk” and a few cold Peach Bellinis, we dined on crabs, shrimp and chicken kabobs.

Skewer alternating veggies, mango and chicken. I usually start and end with a grape tomato, they seem to hold everything in place.

Easy Breezy Dinner with Kraft Fresh Take

I love to cook dinner for my men but because I have such a long commute from Pennsylvania I am always on the lookout for easy, breezy dinner ideas.  Crock pot cooking is definitely my all time favorite but I don’t mind firing up the grill or even the oven during the summer.  Last night’s meal was definitely easy, breezy using chicken breasts and Kraft Fresh Take mix.  In our house, no meal is complete without a starch and a veggie, I chose Zatarains rice, steamed broccoli and Marie Callenders Cheddar biscuits.


Crock Pot Meal – Italian Herb Chicken

Last night’s dinner was an easy crock pot meal made with ingredients I had on hand.

Chicken Breasts, Canned Tomatoes, Tomato Sauce and Paste, Mushrooms, and McCormick Slow Cooker Seasoning Package for Italian Herb Chicken

I used a crock pot liner instead of spraying with cooking spray. Chicken in first, topped with the mushrooms. The Italian Herb dry seasonings was mixed with the cans of tomatoes and poured on top.

Covered and cooked on low for 8 hours.

Shredded the chicken with a fork

Wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla

Mine with a jalapeno pepper.
