Speaking of Quesadillas...
I have found the best show on the food network (my source of all inspiration) called Quick Fix Meals with Robin Miller. She takes a few ingredients and makes food for the night and some extra to use for the next few nights. That may not make sense so I will give you an example. The one I did this week is called Chicken Coop. You go buy the list of ingredients and then follow the instructions for what to make on which day. The first day I made a delicious marinade and cooked 6 pieces of chicken. I also chopped some onions- some I used this day, some I saved for the next day. I also made a Provencal style potato salad. The chicken was AMAZING!!! Then, the next day, I used two of the pieces of chicken to make quesadillas (where I also used the onions.) They were equally delicious. Tonight I am using the last two pieces of chicken to make an Asian salad. I really like her recipes and I love being able to know what I am making for the whole week! I would include the recipes, but there are so many that...I didn't want to. But look it up on the food network website: http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/show_rm/episode/0,2757,FOOD_23676_43746,00.html
and I guarantee you will love it!

I'm glad that you have tried her recipes. I have watched parts of the show but I hate going through the trouble of getting all the food and the recipes not tasting so good. Sounds very yummy, I'll definitely be trying it!
sounds like you cook all the time...how do you find the time between work and the exhaustion of pregnancy? the recipe does sound delicious by the way :)
i'm just glad that there are foods that sound good to you right now! ;) i couldn't eat chicken (and especially prepare it) during my whole pregnancy and even a couple months after kayla was born. even the thought of it made me sick! but these recipes look great to me now...we'll be trying them!
I have a question, do the recipes make just the main part of the meal or the entire meal? I looked it up and tried to figure it all out but it didn't work- is each episode a whole week? I'm sure everybody else gets this...maybe I should just watch the show...
It makes a whole meal, but sometimes it is only one course. Every now and then she will have a side dish or something but I have found that it is usually just one or two things that are big enough to satisfy. This week I am doing Mac and Cheese (the real kind!), Hawaiian pizza and something with chicken- I can't remember off the top of my head. I am loving that I can cook again- I didn't even want to be near the fridge for a while there!
