Tried it Tuesday- Buffalo Chicken

The latest new recipe I tried was another one I found browsing Pintrest. Surprise, surprise! It is also a crockpot recipe, another shocker, I know. This time I decided to make Buffalo Chicken a recipe that I re-pinned from this blog.

I didn't pay attention when I was at the store and the bag of chicken I bought was only 2lbs instead of 3lbs so I used less than the entire bottle of hot sauce. I have to say that this recipe was good. We ate it several ways. The first day we had it on a hogie roll with melted provolone cheese, the second I had it in a wrap for lunch with lettuce and ranch dressing, and the third was as a quesadilla. All were delicious! It was a little much for the kids but my husband and I sure liked it so I will definitely make this again.

Tried it Tuesday- Stuffed Peppers

I was going through my food board on Pintrest and stumbled upon a recipe for Quinoa Stuffed Peppers that I had pinned a while back. The recipe made quite a bit but I looked at it and realized it would be easy to cut in half so I decided to make them over the weekend.

The recipe said that they freeze well so I baked two of the peppers  froze the other two to make on a later date. I also had plenty of filling left over which I plan to use in a quesadilla later this week for lunch. While I really liked this recipe my husband unfortunately did not. He said that they were ok but are not something he would want to eat again. That was so depressing to hear. I really liked them, but I guess since I have some in the freezer I can pull one out for myself on a day that he won't be home.
