I have been in nothing but a hurry since school started after Labor Day. My husband had surgery on his arm. He is doing well. My daughter joined the Field Hockey team and both of my kids need to be driven to their fencing class twice a week... oh, yeah, and all of those doctors appointments that I put off, because who wants to go to the doctors in the summer!
If I'm really together on one of these busy days I put a meal together in a crockpot in the morning. But this Chicken Curry in a Hurry dish can be made on the stove in about about 20 minutes. So keep the ingredients for it on hand.

Slow Cooker Black Bean and Lentil Soup |
This is such a great transition into Fall dish. A little heavier than Summer Fare but not quite a beef stew... love that it's slow cooker for this busy time of year.

ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your husband's arm. Hope he gets better soon. Thanks for hosting the party.

He is really happy he had surgery. The original pain is now gone, just recovery pain. Thanks.
DeleteHi Diane,
ReplyDeleteHope your husband is recovering from his surgery. Life can get real busy sometime and we need fast comfort food. Your Chicken Curry looks great. Hope life slows down for the weekend and thanks so much for the party, I really like your new badge!

The surgery happened when he needed it, but it was also at the time of our busy school schedule... oh well life, you just keep rolling. Thanks.
DeleteThanks so much for hosting! Have a great weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteGood to see you Jamie.

ReplyDeleteYou are welcome Lynn. Good to see you.
DeleteThank you Diane for the party :)
ReplyDeleteThe dish looks GOOD, but unfortunately we cannot eat it (dairy and chicken/neat are forbidden for us)
Make it with coconut milk. It will taste delicious.
DeleteHi Diane,
ReplyDeleteglad to hear your husband is doing better. The curry dish looks divine. I've been mulling over the idea of making curry as well. You and I are so often on the same track! lol.
Thanks so much for the feature and your kind words. What a lovely surprise to see my chicken here this morning. I'm a big fan of Natural Chow and love that her dish is featured as well.
Have a great weekend!

Oh I need a quick meal like this too! Life never seems to slow down around here.
ReplyDeleteI thought summer was busy. Back to school is even more so. Can't turn down a quick dish and I'm particularly liking the lime in this.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the party!
Dear Diane, This looks like a nice healthy meal to put together in a hurry.
