Stewed Chicken and Sausage: by Kimberly

I made this the other night (from food network) and served with rice...so good.  My kids weren't so crazy about it, but Wade and I loved it.

Ingredients

  • 1 small chicken (about 2 1/2 pounds) cut into 8 pieces
  • Essence, recipe follows
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 pound smoked sausage, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices
  • 2 cups julienne onions
  • Salt
  • Cayenne
  • 4 bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 6 cups canned chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions

Directions

Season the chicken pieces with Essence. In a mixing bowl, add the flour and season with Essence. Dredge the chicken in the seasoned flour, coating each side completely. Add the oil to the slow cooker, over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the chicken. Turn to brown the chicken on all sides. Cook until evenly browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the sausage, stir and cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Add the onions. Season with salt and cayenne. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Add the bay leaves, garlic and chicken stock. Cover the slow cooker and cook for 3 hours, or until the chicken is tender. Stir in the green onions. Reseason if necessary.

Simple Cole Slaw by Ashley

I love coleslaw, all different kinds, but I have never made it before. A girl that I don't know has a recipe blog that I go to often and I got this recipe from her. I loved that it said "simple". Simple I can do. *my Dad loves coleslaw as well, but is kind of a coleslaw snob and he really liked it. *i served it with homemade sloppy joes and tater tots :) Ingredients: 1/3 cup canola-based mayonnaise ( I am sure you can use any kind of mayo, but this is better for you.) 1 and 1/2 teaspoons sugar 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard 3 cups packaged cabbage and carrot coleslaw Directions: Combine mayo, sugar, pepper, salt, and dry mustard with a whisk. Add coleslaw and toss.
