No Chicka Tikka Masala

Ok, ok, so who know if that title rhymes or not.
But this is chicken free and soooo yummy!

1 C Jasmine or Basmati rice, prepared in rice cooker
1 jar of Tikka Masala sauce
1 can of Rotel- Do not Drain!
1 can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 C of frozen green peas (I didn't have any so I left these out)
cilantro (fresh or dried, if using fresh add this at the end)
curry powder
garam masala
2 potatoes, chopped
naan bread

Prepare rice and set aside. In a large pot heat sauce, rotel, chickpeas, peas and seasonings. Place potatoes in a separate large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cover and simmer over medium-high heat for about 15 minutes. Drain and add to tikka sauce mixture.
Heat through and serve over rice with some warmed naan bread

How momma got her (blog) groove back!

 Yeah, I've taken a long blog sabbatical. But, it is time to get back at it. Let's face it being a mom is hard work and being a first-time mom is even harder. So, if baby boy goes to bed before midnight haha I'll use my precious spare time to pour a glass sit back and whine  a bit!

Whip it Whip it good

Coconut whipped cream It's so good, it only requires 3 ingredients, it's vegan and has none of that artificial garbage. Yes, the can is upside down and yes it is necessary. It probably wasn't necessary to take a picture of it upside down, but it's funny so there! 1 can of full fat coconut milk, chill in fridge overnight 2 tsp sugar  1/2 tsp vanilla Put your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 5 minutes. Open coconut milk upside down, pour out the liquid and save for another use. Scoop out the cream and add to chilled bowl. Whip with electric mixers or a Kitchenaid mixer with paddle attachment. Add sugar and vanilla. Continue to whip until light and fluffy. Use this like cool whip, I even used it to make a layered oreo dessert it was delish!

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.
