Absence

I want to apologize for my absence, the past few months have been crazy to say the least.  In a little over a month I will be getting married, which is definitely exciting but also very time consuming. I have been cooking lots but haven't had time to take photos or post recipes. I have just a few recipes to share with you tonight so I figured I would share them now,apologize for my absence, and let you know hopefully I will be back in November (after the wedding and honeymoon).

Slow Cooker Chicken-Sausage Stew

 Chicken and Kielbasa go together like "lamb and tuna fish... maybe you like spaghetti and meatball? You more comfortable with that analogy?" (Gotta love Big Daddy.) I made this dish but lightened it up by using brown rice and low-fat ingredients. You can enjoy this dish even on a diet...right? It's pretty awesome. With our wedding coming up, Ivan has been trying to trim-down. I figured I would try my best to cook my normal meals but lighten them up so he doesn't feel guilty if he has seconds. And he always goes for seconds.
