    Crock-Pot Moroccan Chicken Stew

    This recipe is one that my husband and I have recently started making.  It is super easy as you can just throw all of the ingredients into the crock pot and then just leave it all day.  The smell is amazing with all of the spices in this stew and fills the house.  The chicken thighs are moist and delicious and make a wonderful stew.  They basically are falling apart by the time is stew is finished.  I love the addition of dates as they add just the right amount of sweetness.  The cilantro and toasted pine nuts take it over the top. I hope you all will give this…

    Chicken Soup

    So I was listening to my ipod at work the other day and this song came on my ipod.  I do not know why I have this on my ipod, but it made me think: ” I should do a blog post on chicken noodle soup!  I make really good chicken noodle soup… or at least I think so!!! ”  So here I am, writing a post about chicken noodle soup. I think it is a good time of year to eat soup.  It is still chilly enough on some days that I crave soup, and if you get sick this time of year it is really really annoying, so…
