I was busy canning peaches this week and helping my daughter dehydrate cinnamon apple slices. What to make for dinner was not high on my priority list. Not to mention, after canning all day, the last thing I wanted to do was cook! What I needed was a meal I could toss into the crock pot that morning and forget about it till dinner time. I have been craving a chicken and wild rice soup! I’ve seen a lot of recipes for them but, they all had a lot of “steps” and I was looking for a “lazy soup”! So, I decided to make my own! This creamy chicken and wild rice soup is the result! Thanks to my handy-dandy crock pot, the house smelled heavenly all day…almost like Thanksgiving! This is my new favorite “go to” soup recipe for the upcoming cold Fall and Winter months! It’s delicious! Seriously… It’s REALLY delicious and SO easy! You’re going to love it and so will all the other birdies at your Nest! Come take a peek…
I’ve been dying to make this salad and share it with y’all! It’s my very favorite Fall salad and it’s out of this world!

If your mouth has been looking for a flavor explosion this is it! It’s so easy to make and so impressive to serve. I love to serve this salad during the Holidays but, truth be told, it’s great for week day lunch with friends! You will impress everyone when you make this salad…just be sure to invite me over when you do!

I love sticky finger licking, lip smacking, buffalo chicken tenders. The kind they serve at a certain “wing” place…yeah, those! Well, I’ve taken those and added them to a salad (that just erased all the guilt..it’s in the handbook…mix fried foods with greens and greens win!) and used all my other favorite wing sides to go with it! It makes for one mouthwatering salad that is perfect in this killer heat! I don’t know about you but, I really think I’m melting! Which makes this salad just the dish to make for dinner. It quick and easy… and it won’t heat up your kitchen…even better!
Last week I needed to come up with a dinner in a hurry! I had a hangry man coming home and I forgot to pull something out of the freezer! Yikes! (This ever happen to anyone else?)
