The Beginning of a Great Thing!

Hi Everyone!

Well, it's finally up and running with lots of kinks to work out (I'm sure) but I am SO excited for this blog!  So let's all embrace the idea & share, share, share!  Share cooking successes & failures (wink wink -you know we've all had them) as well as crafts, DIY projects, or even just great deals that we should all know about! 

So-here we go:

At the cabin for Christmas, Marilee showed me this awesome blog so I've been trying some new recipes on this month's meal plan.  One of our new FAVORITES, which will be a regular in the Searle home is Mel's Crispy Chicken Wraps. They are SUPER easy & SO yummy!!  It calls for a rotisserie chicken which makes it even easier since it's already cooked but I rarely buy those & I'll be using boiled & shredded chicken next time.  We had 4 or 5 left over and they were yummy the day after too! 

Happy Cooking!   Luvs~Ang~

  1. Yea for the new blog!!! I'm so excited! So quick question on this recipe, did you use celery when you made it? Did you change things up at all from what she had? I want to try them but I wasn't sure if the celery was good or weird in them.

  2. I made it like she has it except I didn't have scallions (who does?) so I just used green onions. I did in fact use the celery even though I too thought it sounded strange! I chopped it up pretty small though cuz Mike's not a big fan but it was hardly noticable in the final product. I loved the added crunch they gave to the wraps! Also- I used Frank's hot sauce and used the amount she called for & it really wasn't that spicey at all but had great flavor. Mike ended up dipping his in salsa because he wanted a bit more spice but I think next time I might make some kind of creamy dip (maybe sour cream with cilantro & Frank's sauce? Who knows...). Yummy!!
