I shared a couple of dessert recipes last week, so I thought I should shake things up and share a main dish recipe today. This one is not the most beautiful of entrees, but it sure is tasty. For lack of a better description, I call it Chicken and Pasta. I adapted the recipe from [...]
A couple summer ago my parents had a bountiful tomato crop, which they very kindly shared with us. I proceeded to make jars and jars of bottled salsa. But alas, no one will eat the salsa.
