Cheesy Corn with Chile's

I bought myself a new slow cooker recipe book and Im so excited to try every single one!

The first one I tried was Cheesy Corn with Chile's because I was invited to Mexican night in my friend's neighborhood since I am always at her house. I seem to be part of her neighborhood these days.

The recipe turned out great. The corn was fantastic. I did omit the very last step...only because I forgot. When I make this dish again, I will still omit the very last step.

Makes 12 servings.

2 16-oz packages frozen whole kernel corn (thawed)
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (8 oz)
1 14 3/4 oz can cream style corn
1 cup chopped tomato
1 4-oz can diced green chile peppers, undrained
1/3 cup chopped green onion
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 16-oz carton sour cream
cilantro

1. In 3 1/2 or 4 quart slow cooker combine, whole kernel corn, cheese, cream corn, tomatoes, chile's, onion, chili powder, salt.

2.Cover and cook on low heat for 5-6 hours or high heat for 3 hours.

3.Turn off cooker. Gently stir in sour cream and cilantro. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Again, I accidentally omitted step 3, and the corn still turned out great. I had many compliments on this dish and will make it again.

BBQ Nibblers

This is another party or crowd pleaser. It cannot get any more simple to make and its cheap if you have to feed a crowd on a budget. It gives them something hot and filling to snack on at low cost.
I have made this before although I dont have a picture of it. I think it tastes really great even though it sounds very weird. It has a flavor that your guests just cant figure out and leaves them wanting more!

BBQ Nibblers
(I throw it all in a crock pot and it works great)

1 bag of frozen meatballs, 1 package of cocktail wieners, I can pineapple chunks, BBQ sauce, 12 oz jar grape jelly.

Mix all in crock pot except pineapples. Right before serving add in pineapple chunks.
Serve.

That simple! And very Delish!!

Maple Dijon Chicken in the crock pot

Last night's dinner was Maple Dijon chicken in the crock pot. It turned out great excpet I made one mistake. I thawed out the wrong chicken pieces. Yup, instead of grabbing the bag of breast tenderloins, I grabbed the bag of wings. This dish would have been 10 times better had I used the right chicken. It was easy to make and I will make this again, only with the breasts instead. And I think I will double the amount of mustard for more flavor. Since I only feed Nick and I, I cut the recipe in half. Plus he doesnt eat onions or sweet potatoes.

1 lb chicken pieces, breast tenderloins work best. 1 cup chicken broth, 2 sweet potatoes peeled, chopped, 1 onion chopped, 2 tbs dijon mustard, 3 tbs maple syrup, 3 cloves garlic chopped, 2 bay leaves, 1 tsp thyme

Put chicken in crock pot, toss with thyme, syrup, mustard. Add sweet potatoes. Add onion, garlic. Pour in broth. Add bay leaf.
Cook low 6-8 hours or high 4-5 hours.

Since I used wings instead, when this meal was done the meat just fell right off the bones. It was so juicy and tender. But the skin of the wings wasnt good at all. Please use the tenderloins for this!!

I forgot to take pictures. Sorry.

Today Im going to try to make Cadum Pak'ju. It's a local dish here on Guam.
