Hello everyone again! I have to quickly share this recipe with you if your in the mood for a little Mediterranean goodness. I came up with this a few months ago and I think you should try it, its just a simple pita with grilled chicken in it. All you do is marinate a chicken breast with some olive oil (say, quarter cup), salt, pepper and maybe a tablespoon of dried oregano. Grill this up (the BBQ makes a difference) and cut it into pieces. Throw it in the warmed pita with whatever you want! I like onions, hummus and some feta cheese. Wendy likes to add grilled bell peppers as well. Give it a shot and let me know what you think!
In my last post about refried beans I mentioned the flexibility of dried beans and the heavenly heights they can be brought to. Baked beans were given as an example along with a promise to suggest a recipe in the future. I was recently reminded of writing this by a friend along with a (strong) request to follow up on my promise, so here it is!
Baked beans are one of those perfect outdoor, summer side dishes that enhance any grilled food. If your like me and think potato salad is the work of satan or are simply out of ideas about what side dish to serve to a BBQ, these are a wonderful treat. Plus you'll always get lots of ooohh's and ahhh's as your guests envy your mad cooking abilities, creating something that they forgot can be found outside of a can.
Here is the recipe. Its takes a while but very simple and very much worth it.
