Chicken Salad for Sandwiches

Nothin' like a good chicken salad sandwich from a deli or sandwich shop. So why then don't we make chicken salad sandwiches at home more often? I've been working on this recipe for a couple of years and finally nailed it. The first trick is texture, a two-step process with a food processor. After that, it's simple to stir in some pantry ingredients to create a moist, super-flavorful chicken salad that holds together in sandwiches. It's handy to have on hand for quick lunches and sandwiches, especially over a busy week or weekend and when expecting a houseful. Real Food, Fresh & Fast. Year-Round Kitchen Staple. Budget Friendly.

Sweet Pepper Pasta Skillet

A simple vegetable pasta in a light cream sauce, almost three pounds of barely cooked vegetables (three!!! colors of bell pepper plus corn and peas) topped with juicy tomato and for anyone in the mood, something creamy. A month ago, if you'd told me I'd be raving about a dinner made from three giant bell peppers from Sam's Club or Costco, I'd have been intrigued ... but dubious. Now here I am, raving about a skillet full of pasta and colorful veggies that's way more than the sum of its parts. And oh yeah, I've been experimenting with a new way to cook pasta and it works so well, it's my new method for cooking dried pasta. Real Food, Fresh & Fast. Year-Round Kitchen Staple.
