| Slow Cooker Chicken Vegetable Stew |
This has been a real transitional week weather wise here in Northern Westchester County, NY. The days get above freezing but the nights are still chilly. Spring has been raining in, and the snow is quietly disappearing. Maple sap is flowing from the trees... but I still feel like warm hearty food: chicken, leeks, cream... with a small hint of Spring: peas.
Softball season is starting soon. Life will be getting a little busier... that's when I pull out my slow cooker and I am guaranteed a warm inviting meal when I get home.
Enjoy,
Diane

| Asian Spiced Daikon Mushroom Soup |
This is a wonderful soup for curing or prevent a cold during the transition into Spring. It contains daikon which is a high in C and ginger, garlic, & chicken broth all great for the immune system.

| Chicken with Port-Mushroom Sauce |
I love a recipe that is both quick and elegant. Just a few simple ingredients, but wow,... will your company think you slaved for hours cooking it.

| Easy Sopapillas |
A fairly quick and easy gluten-free dessert that has a lot of flavor combinations: sweet, chocolate, cinnamon... crunchy and delicious.

PS: I didn't realize you were in Westchester County. I'm in southern Dutchess County. It's interesting that I met another bloggy follower who's in the town of Poughkeepsie. We're all so close geographically.
DeleteWelcome Annamaria,
DeleteWe do live close... I'm on the border of Putnam County and I come from an Italian family too. Hope to seeing more of you.
I love dishes like this! There's something about chicken, creamy sauces and green veggies that I just adore. Your stew sounds delicious, and I like that it can be made in the slow cooker too. Thank you for sharing it with the Hearth and Soul hop.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree I love cream with chicken... it is a great transition into Spring kinda stew.
DeleteWe have a storm coming in, so this would be perfect!!
ReplyDeleteWe do too and it great to have something warm in a crockpot in case the power goes out.
DeleteThrilled to have found you and your link from the Seasonal Celebration site. I am looking for more slow cooker recipes as our schedule gets busier. I look forward to giving this one a try!!
ReplyDeleteGreat timing... I hope you enjoy it.
DeleteThis looks so delicious! Hearty comfort food at its best.
ReplyDeleteDiane,
ReplyDeleteYour Stew would just be delicious simmering away in a slow cooker about right now. Thank you so much for sharing this special recipe with Full Plate Thursday and enjoy your weekend.
