Finally… a nifty meal that’s perfect for the chilly weather.

Ingredients:
- Four skinless chicken breasts
- 1 can fat free cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 bell pepper chopped
- 2-3 cups brown rice
- seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic, oregano, curry powder) – I usually don’t measure, I dump!!
Directions:
Place thawed chicken in crockpot, pour cream of mushroom soup on top, add seasonings of choice, cook on low for 4-6 hours. Last but not least add your cooked brown rice to the mixture.
Ready to serve!
What’s your favorite meal when the weather gets cool?
Our friend Eric invited us to ”Spaghetti-Extravaganza Part II” last night. I was supper excited because Eric makes delicious spaghetti, but this time in addition to spaghetti he made a ”Chicken Lasagna”.
Iphone pictures, I left my camera on the counter at home.

Cheesy Chicken Lasagna, garlic bread and salad.
I loved every bite and can not wait to get the recipe and make this later next week. The breading on top, carrots and cheese made this dish taste so good.

Many glasses of wine and a couple rounds of ”Apples to Apples” with friends; made it a great Wednesday night get together.
Working two different positions at work is going great so far. I’ve been quite busy so excuse my absence from updating and reading. I also did not feel the need to update the blog and bore readers with repeat meals.
Last night, I used virgin coconut oil to cook YUMMY chicken.

Yes! good ole fashion fried chicken.

I’ve eaten 80% clean this week besides gobbling up the strawberry bread. I have to say I rarely miss fried foods, but I can’t resist the smell and taste of fried chicken.
My first time cooking fried chicken and it was a success!

A 3 mile run courtesy of Missy, in the cold. I initially bundled up for a quick walk in the park, but she insisted on running. I left the camera at home but here she is afterward relaxing on the couch. She’s got a sheet, we let her sit on…too much dog hair!
Can you tell she is tired?

Have a great Weekend!
Any Super Bowl plans, who are you cheering for tomorrow?
Tonight we went with leftovers! Well, for me it was but not for Chris. He had missed out on Chicken Alfredo last night. I steamed some mixed veggies and made cheesy garlic toast on the side.

I have to make this cheesy garlic toast again…Yummy!

A Simple dinner to end a great Monday.

I passed on dessert, I didn’t do my workout at all… bad Nicci. That’s okay b/c tomorrow is September 1st and I’m ready for Fall.
My BFF Kari came to visit me today, I love this girl! We have been friends forever and were always there for each other! Here’s some pics of us being goofy…as usual or either just completely bored!


Yea, I think we had too much to drink at Magic Time machine on my B-day!
