Have you ever wanted pizza and chicken at the same time? I am a foodaholic, so I’m always craving weird combinations. One day, I had a hankering for chicken, cheese, and pepperoni (no, I wasn’t pregnant). I came across this recipe for pepperoni chicken and assumed that God had heard my prayers.

This is seriously one of the best versions of chicken cordon bleu I’ve ever had. It’s like eating a chicken pizza without the crust. My kids got a kick out of the pepperoni’s sitting on top of the chicken breasts. It doesn’t take much to amuse us lol. Try something new for dinner tonight and make this awesome meal. You’ll be glad you did!

I am a huge fan of Asian cuisine. I love all the exotic flavors, spicy dishes and the healthy, fresh ingredients. Whenever I come across a new Asian restaurant, I will definitely clear my schedule and step in for a delicious meal. Unfortunately, there are no Asian places nearby where I live. For a long time I was afraid to try and cook anything like this at home – I thought it would be way too complicated. I was so wrong!

Simple to make, yet a tasty flavor vacation: It’s Slow Cooker Chicken Teriyaki. No need to go the takeout route when you can make this at home so easily! It really is amazing, how simple it is to put so many delicious Asian dishes together. Just throw a few things in the slow cooker, cook some rice, steam the veggies you want to use, and you have an easy, tasty full meal.

Quick tip: This meal isn’t perfect without chopsticks!

This Dorito Taco Bake recipe looks very festive and has plenty of lively flavor. It’s also a very quick recipe; the prep and baking shouldn’t take you more than an hour. I have to say, a recipe like this is about as family-friendly as it gets. It’s also a rather versatile recipe, with plenty of possible substitutions and optional extras. I have to admit, it may not be the healthiest recipe in the world (at least not as-is), but the kids will love it, and I imagine that you will find a lot to enjoy about it as well (particularly on one of those busy midweek nights).

If you want to lighten this recipe up a bit, you can substitute ground turkey for the ground beef or go with low-fat cheese and sour cream. You can also add a layer of refried beans, if you like, or go with tortilla chips instead of Doritos for a bit of a lighter flavor. If you want to experiment with the texture of the dish a bit, you can try baking the crescent rolls for a few minutes before putting the other ingredients in there or hold off on adding the chips until the last 10 minutes of baking.

Do you feel like you’ve tried every possible side dish recipe on the Earth? Or maybe you just don’t like to spend hours preparing for a side, when the main course itself is taking time. Whatever the case, we have found the perfect solution for you!

Sweet potatoes are great with most any meal, though they are a particularly common side dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. This recipe for Slow Cooker Sweet Potatoes With Bacon is an easy but flavorful one, and that’s why I can’t wait for a special occasion to make it! This should go nicely with turkey, ham, chicken, or even other types of pork. That blend of sweet, savory, and salty is just irresistible to me. Just throw this in the Crock-Pot in the morning, and you can have it ready in time for dinner with no trouble at all.

Quick tip: Want to make this vegan? Omit the bacon and use vegetable margarine instead of butter.

Chicken Chasseur is a savory, rustic French recipe that makes for great comfort food during the colder times of year. The sauce (which itself has plenty of mushrooms and tomatoes) goes nicely over rice, pasta, mashed potatoes, and even a variety of different veggies.

“Chasseur” is actually the French word for “hunter,” though I’m not sure why that word would be associated with chicken. Perhaps it is meant to refer to chicken cooked well enough that even a life-long hunter would enjoy, or perhaps this is the sort of meal that would be prepared for a hunter while he was away and served at the end of a very long hunt. More traditional versions of this recipe leave the skin on the kitchen and even include a bit of cognac. Minus the cognac and with skinless boneless chicken, this version of the recipe is a bit lighter and lower on the calories, but I assure you that it still has a hearty, multi-dimensional, country-style flavor.

Quick tip: Discard the bay leaf after cooking.

This Turkey-Stuffed Eggplant recipe makes for a hearty meal, yet it is also rather easy to make, fast-cooking, and even on the healthy side. Describing the flavor of eggplant to someone who has never had it is a bit of a difficult task. It is technically a fruit, with a rather fruit-like, soft, and fleshy texture but with a flavor more like that of a vegetable, with earthy and softly spicy elements that go nicely with most any meat and with a wide variety of different herbs, spices, and veggies.

I think that this recipe has a delicious lean flavor to it, but if you prefer, you could easily substitute bulk sausage, ground pork, or even ground beef (though of course it would be a bit on the heavier side). For that matter, you can even use zucchini instead of eggplant, if you like the stuffing idea but aren’t exactly turned on by the flavor of eggplant. And the great thing about a main dish like this: with so much in there, you don’t need super-fancy sides to complete the meal. A simple salad or basic pasta dish, and you’re good to go.
