Spicy Turkey Sloppy Joes

Super yummy and so easy to make! A lot of flavor without any premade spice packets.

Spicy Chicken Rigatoni

Chuck saw this on my weekly menu I hang on the fridge and got very excited. It's pretty much covers his favorite food - pasta and chicken in a spicy sauce. This was VERY spicy - tone down the red peppers flakes if you're not up for a lot of heat.

This halved very nicely for the two of us (yes, we eat a lot). I would recommend using a pound of chicken for the full recipe though, and 8 ounces for half, if you enjoy meat in your meal.

Spring Vegetable and Goat Cheese Lasagna

This was AMAZING. I would serve this for a brunch/light lunch or as a side dish with dinner for company. Even Chuck loved this, which is big because it A. contains lots of green vegetables and B. does not contain meat.

I subbed in four green onions for the leek.

Crockpot Parmesan Garlic Chicken with Orzo

Another fantastic dish, I would even serve this to company! I ate the leftovers for days afterwards, couldn't help myself from taking a forkful everytime I passed the fridge. Leftovers may be a little dry - add some olive oil as needed. We used broccoli.

Chicken Broccoli Bacon Ranch Foil Packets

So, so delicious. And super easy for a weeknight! Feel free to sub in Real Bacon Bits if you don't have time to make bacon.

Pasta with Shrimp, Tomatoes, and Arugula

I saw this on one of Giada's shows and thought it would be good over pasta instead of served on bruschetta. This was really very good, and easy enough for a weeknight meal. One batch of the topping covers half a pound of pasta very nicely.

Other changes I made include omitting the tarragon (don't like the flavor), using a can of drained diced tomatoes instead of the Romas, and substituting the new Philadelphia Cooking Creme for the mascarpone cheese.

Lo Mein with Pork

Quick and easy for a weeknight. I left out the mushrooms and used double the amount of snow peas. Definitely needs more soy sauce while serving.
