Why didn't anyone tell me I skipped this today?! What did you have for dinner? We had chicken fricassee.

I was actually just thinking that I didn't see a post today. What's chicken fricassee?

We had grilled chicken and salad.

It's chicken?

Not my favorite chicken recipe, but it's a favorite of DH's. I'd have to ask him for his mother's recipe.

I know it's chicken

But what's on it or in it?! What the heck is the fricassee part?! I've never heard of that.

I don't know, that's the problem. It's some cajun recipe and that's really the extent of my knowledge. Chicken Fricassee - Allrecipes I'm not sure if this is how DH makes it, I know he also puts olives into it, but there's one recipe.

Ahh.. I see. I just didn't know if it was chicken was some kinda cheese on top.. or with spinach leaves... or whatever, ya know?! Looks interesting tho.. is it spicy?

AirForceWife2008 · #7 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 08:29 PM

It probably can be spicy, not when DH makes it. I guess you could say his recipe is a little sweet? I would probably like it a little more if it was spicy. I usually just grab the chicken, and scrape everything else off anyways. But DH loves it.

Haha.. that sounds like me. I always scrap off all the extra crap when we eat something! I don't like spicy foods tho!

AirForceWife2008 · #9 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 08:52 PM

I don't like really spicy foods normally, but right now spicy is just so, so, so good! But I just like plain old chicken. Unless it's doused in BBQ sauce, which is even better. Oh, and breaded too!

Lisa1621 · #10 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 08:56 PM

Yeah I love plain grilled chicken. That's probably my favorite way to eat it. I like it breaded too... I just hate how it's so not healthy that way. Yum.. I love chicken nuggets too.

AirForceWife2008 · #11 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 09:01 PM

I could care less if breaded chicken is healthy or not, it's pretty much divine! I'm not really a fan of chicken nuggets though. Hey, you're making me hungry.

Lisa1621 · #12 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 09:10 PM

I know.. I used to not care if it was healhty or not either.. but I've really been trying to watch what I eat! I know.. I'm getting hungry too!

AirForceWife2008 · #13 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 09:19 PM

I should probably start to pay more attention to what I eat before it comes back to bite me in the ***. I can still get away with it now, but that wont always be the case.

Lisa1621 · #14 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 09:28 PM

Well and with me.. I don't want Logan to eat unhealthy. So I'm always trying to make sure we're eating healthy stuff around him as well.

AirForceWife2008 · #15 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 09:31 PM

Good point. I don't want to get our child into unhealthy eating habits. Does it help that you have him to look out for too? I have made progress though. I cute sodas out for Lent, and haven't gone back since which is progress, right?

Lisa1621 · #16 (**permalink**) 03-31-2008, 09:38 PM

Yes cutting out soda is great progress!! Now if I could just get my DH to stop drinking soda we'd be great.

But yeah having a baby really helps get me motivated to eat healthy. Plus it makes me buy healthy food.

AirForceWife2008 · #17 (**permalink**) 04-01-2008, 04:17 AM

Well, hopefully this little one helps keep me on the right path as far as food is concerned.
