Rice, Rice, Oven (Sung to the tune of Ice, Ice, Baby)

Way back when the hubs and I moved in together 
we ended up with two rice cookers.
Which is clearly not a problem!

So for dinner the other night 
we pulled them both out and made dinner.
In the first rice cooker, 
we put in the steamer basket 
and steamed some frozen broccoli. 
I just put in about 2 cups of water under the basket, then tossed in the broccoli and seasonings. Then turned the cooker on. Once finished I sprinkled the finished product with Parmesan.

In the second rice cooker, I used a box of pearled couscous. Per the directions I added the water, oil, couscous, spice packet and turned it on.

As for the oven, the hubs thawed some salmon fillets and brushed them with a mixture of butter and lemon juice. 
Then he sprinkled them with brown
sugar and blackened fish seasoning. 
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

So in 30 minutes you are having a gourmet dinner, 
The hubs gave the salmon a rating of 9 out of 10!

Peach on Earth

We had our Office Christmas Party the other day and decided on a three ingredient no-fail recipe! It always delivers and rarely leaves leftovers. Peach-BBQ Lil' Smokies 2-14 oz package of Lil' Smokies cocktail sausages 1-16 oz jar of Peach Preserves 1-16 oz bottle of BBQ sauce Put all ingredients into a crockpot, stir and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours.  Serves 12-15, I would double for larger crowds.
