Ancho Chicken Tacos with Cilantro Slaw and Avocado Cream

Lately I have been thinking of throwing a taco party since that would be so easy and its one of those party foods you can eat standing up. Anyways this recipe was so delicious I love the mixture of cilantro and lime with sour cream.

Maple-Mustard Chicken Thighs

This recipe was in the budget section which happens to be my favorite when the food is good and it was delicious. It suggests serving it with a cabbage-carrot slaw which I did. Another perfect summer meal.

Haystacks

This mean was awesome!!! It is super simple, cheap and could totally go in as a routine meal when you cant think of anything else. I grew up eating hawaiin haystacks but this is more of a mexican haystack. You can add chicken or shrimp if you want but not necessary. yum.

Thai-Style Chicken with Basil and Pineapple

Thanks to my new Rachel Ray magazine subscription I am enjoying some new flavors that you wouldnt normally put together. For example this recipe with basil and pineapple.

Pineapple Chicken Satay

Something I learned recently is a satay is an asian dish with a spicy sauce that usually involves peanuts. I have a thing for peanuts. This is a really good meal and perfect for the summer since yuo can grill it outside!
