Welcome! Sounds like you have the right idea WRT the kids.

Paul F is really good with recipe ideas. I cook a lot of chicken
and
turkey, the occasional brisket, corned beef, or roast/stew. It
gets
boring after awhile.

Okay, okay.....one I tried the other night that was quick and
good........lightily floured (and sage) chicken breasts sauted in a
frying
pan, when the chicken is done, you take 1/4-1/2 cup of dry
vermouth
pour
it in the pan and cook into the scraping until about half of it is
gone,
then add a table spoon or two of lemon juice just before taking it
off
the
heat......that mixture is poured of the chicken...........then if
you
really
have time on your hands you can top it off with the zest from the
lemon.
:-)


And another one..........bow tie pasta.........equal amounts of sun
dried tomatoes and green olives.............run both the olives and
tomatoes through a food processor (not at the same time :-) ) oh
and
make sure they are pitted olives ;-) to a fine chop consistency.
1/2
cup heavy cream heated in a sauce pan, then add the tomatoes and olives
and a tiny bit of olive oil, cook until the cream starts to turn pink,
then add 1/2 cup of the water from the pasta, then mix with the
pasta......makes a great side dish.

Geez Paul, when are you moving in?

I wouldn't want to give up my kitchen here heehee
