Livening Up the Winter Doldrums… Gimme Some Spice!!

hot-spices.jpg

Are you getting tired of the traditional winter Casseroles?  The old standbys, like Spaghetti and Tacos?  The Chicken???  (I know there are 1001 ways to make chicken, but sometimes – especially this time of year when cooking methods are more limited – they can seem oh so similar to each other!)  Maybe it’s time to expand the repertoire a bit… A little spice or a lot, these recipes offer a chance to mix things up during these winter months, giving you and your mouth a wake up call!

Note: If you do not have all of the spices required in these recipes, may I suggest going to your local bulk spice aisle?  New Seasons, Winco and many Fred Meyer locations all have bulk spices.  This allows you to purchase just as much as you want, without breaking the bank on a cabinet full of spices!

  • Moroccan Lamb Tagine Smothered in Olives

  • Roasted Chicken with North African Spices and a Garlicky Lemon and Yogurt Sauce

  • Mildly Spiced Chicken Breasts with Pineapple Chutney

  • Jumbo Shrimp with Spicy Sesame Ginger Butter
