Being the primary chef of the family and trying to make it fairly easy I lean on basic staples to pull together yummy options. I use our rice cooker often with rice being the complimenting starch to any savory. I love to visit all the varieties of rices. This also utilizes the simplicity of the rotisserie chicken. I can create wonders with a $4.99 Costco chicken. Enjoy from my home to yours…
•chicken breast and drk meat from a rotisserie chicken. 1/2 chicken chopped) •1 cup chopped carrot •1/2 c chopped celery •1/2 cup chopped onion •1/4 cup chopped red pepper • tsp chopped garlic •1/2 cop pineapple pieces optional 1 can whole coconut milk 1 -2 Tbl curry to taste 1/2 tsp ground ginger Salt to taste Olive oil 1.5 cup uncooked Jasmine Rice Garnish Chopped fresh cilantra Lime wedge
Chopped veggies
Saute chopped vegetables in olive oil until just tender reserving garlic until last two minutes. Add large chopped chicken.
I really like the Coconut cream from trader Joes but any whole coconut cream will add the richness and thicker broth.
Rotissere chicken makes meals quick and simple. Easy freezer item.A favorite staple on my pantry shelf
Simmer with added spices to heat thru and add pineapple. Salt to taste.
Don’t over cook to cause chicken to fall apart. Just to really heat thru and enjoy.
I was raised on a large farm in a small community of Long Shop, Virginia. Just a stones throw from Blacksburg, Va and a short drive to the WV boarder. I grew up appreciating Appalachia cooking with low budgets and home grown veggies. What honestly tastes better than a warm tomato out of the garden sliced fat with salt and pepper? Maybe a bowl of good brown pinto beans and cornbread. Or even better grilled trout fresh caught from the creek!
My childhood was a dream... and what has made my passion for food- sharing good meals with good friends and loved ones.
My food always has a story and always in sizes to share.
I now have begun a new adventure with my love Jason, and we created the Bellman and Concierge LLC and reopened the beautiful Oaks Victorian Inn. A childhood home I knew well growing up and now saving for many to enjoy as a Boutique Bed and Breakfast. Cooking for guests and sharing traditions. Come visit us at
