Chicken and Pepper Pasta with a Balsamic Cream Sauce

My husband didn't want our usual chicken and peppers dish this week, but that's what I had originally planned for dinner.  He wanted pasta.  So, this was the end result and if his stomach could hold that much food, he would have eaten every last bit!  Believe it or not, if you serve 4 with this batch, it's around 725 calories per serving, but if you add a salad and serve 6, it's only about 500 calories per serving.  You'd think pasta with a cream sauce would be far worse for you, but this isn't too bad.  Enjoy!

Yellow Chicken and Quinoa

So, my husband was out with the guys one night and I had a craving for a mild curry dish.  I don't usually like curry, but oddly this is what ended up in the pan for dinner.  It turned out really good.  For those of you who have never had quinoa, I thought it tasted like a cross between couscous and brown rice.  It was really enjoyable.  Hope you like it.
