Bowl Full of Yumminess

I honestly can't come up with a name for this dish. So a Bowl Full of Yumminess it shall be. My husband is stationed in Turkey right now and that's the only way I can get away with cooking like this. He's not a fan of mushrooms.




I don't have exact measurements for this dish. I literally just made it up as I went along. I can tell you that I used:

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast.
1 yellow onion.
Sliced Mushrooms - as many as you would like
1 bag of frozen corn - thawed
Cabbage - as much as you would like, cut into smaller pieces
Spinach Leaves - as much as you would like, cut into smaller pieces
Soy Sauce
Mesquite Seasoning - optional
Grape Tomatoes - optional

Cut chicken into bite size pieces and cook in skillet until done.
In a separate skillet, saute your mushrooms and onion in some soy sauce. Amount of soy sauce used is however much you would like. I used maybe 2 tablespoons. Once that is done, add your cabbage, spinach and corn. If you want, add a bit more soy sauce. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring so there is no sticking.
Then add your chicken and sprinkle some mesquite seasoning and mix well. The mesquite seasoning is optional, I like to use it to add a little spice. And you may notice from my other recipes, that's one of my favorite spices! :)

After that, you're done. It's such a simple dish that's easy to add or take away ingredients, you can experiment and make it your own. :)

I added the grape tomatoes on the side, taste great with the Bowl Full of Yumminess!

Hope you enjoy! :)

Corn Side Dish

I originally had this recipe posted on one of my other blogs, but thought I would go ahead and share it here too!

This is a yummy yummy Corn Side Dish I came up with. It's so easy and takes maybe 10 minutes to make!


We were having chicken for dinner one night and I was tired of just having some plain corn on the side. So I came up with this Corn Side Dish. I had a frozen bag of corn and a can of Mild Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies.


 
I also had a half of purple onion. I call it purple, some call it red. Looks purple, so we're going with purple onion. :) And I had one of our favorite McCormick seasonings, Mesquite. Spicy....which my husband loves.
So I chopped my half onion into small pieces, any size will work though. Placed in a bowl, poured in some olive oil. I didn't measure the amount, just enough to give it a bit of a coating and then I added a half of package of the Mesquite seasoning. Mixed it until all the onion was coated. Once that was done I placed it in a skillet placed on medium heat. Saute for about 3 minutes.
While the onions are cooking, I cooked my frozen (steamable) bag of corn for 4 minutes in the microwave. Once that was done I added the corn to the seasoned onion, mixed it well to get all the corn coated. Then I added the Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies, I drained the juice before adding.
Again, mix it well to get all those flavors mixed together. Stir around in skillet for just a few minutes. Watch it so it doesn't stick. That's never fun!

And that's it, you are ready to eat! We eat this with chicken or talapia. I also like to eat it over a bed of spinach. Delish! Hope you enjoy! :)
