Welcome To Recipes From the Heart

The old adage 'necessity is the mother of invention' was certainly true as I raised my children. When they were preschool age, my husband's company conducted a reduction of work force resulting in the loss of our only income. Have you ever read a recipe and had all the ingredients except one? Everyone has. So what do you do? Go to the store and buy the ingredient? That wasn't an option during those lean years. I learned to recreate recipes and create my own. I learned to enjoy opening the pantry and putting things together to make a new dish. I have kept the dishes through the years and still use them today. This site will feature my tweaked recipes and some I created on my own. Each of my adult books include recipes. I would love to know how you tweak my recipes for your family's taste or the supplies in your pantry.

Chicken Stew

Yesterday morning I was running late for church and needed to get lunch cooked.  Darn, the chicken wasn't completely thawed.  Now what? 

Cilantro Grilled Chicken BreastHere's what I ended up with:

One chopped onion--sauteed
Small pkg of frozen whole corn
Small pkg of frozen green peas
1 tbs. of chicken boullion
Five chicken breasts
Dash seasoning salt--to taste
Dash of Old Bay--to taste
One cup of water

Please all ingredients in crock pot.  I turned it on high because it only had a few hours to cook and the chicken was slightly frozen.  It was delicious.
