Crock-Pot Chicken Cacciatore Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 onion, medium, sliced
1 celery stalk w/leaves cut in 1-inc, h pieces
2 can tomato paste, 6 oz. each 1 can w/garli
1/2 cup chianti, or any wine
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp creole seasoning
1 bay leaf
6 mushrooms, large, sliced
3 garlic cloves
1/2 tsp basil
2 tsp oregano
1 chicken, whole, about 3 lbs.
Recipe Preparation
Place sliced onion in bottom of crock-pot. Add chicken -- you can
either use a whole chicken or chop it up in pieces. Stir together
tomato paste (as indicated, I used 1 can of "regular" tomato paste
and 1 can with garlic), creole seasoning (I used Konriko brand),
pepper, garlic, herbs, and 1/4 cup of wine. I went against
"tradition" and used a red wine. I like the way reds blend with
tomato sauces. In this case, I used a light Chianti. Pour over
chicken. Pour remaining wine over chicken as well. Cover and cook on
LOW for 7 to 9 hours (HIGH 3 to 4 hours). Serve chicken over hot
buttered spaghetti, vermicelli, fettucini, or other pasta.
Servings: 4

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyOne useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
The problems associated with reduced carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe for you?
Reducing carbohydrates might mean missing out on required nutrients from 'good' carbohydrate foods which should be part of any well adjusted diet, specifically those obtained from vegetables, fruits and grains.
Increased consumption of animal-based products might lead into elevated consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which most authorities believe will increase the probability of coronary problems.
The brassicas, Healthy superfoods that aid Weight loss
(includes Kale, Lettuce, Mustard greens and Rutabaga)
Altthough not always popular with children, these vegetables are jam-packed with vitamins (including vitamin c and folate), minerals (selenium and potassium, for example), fibre, chlorophyll, antioxidents, isothiocyanates, and indole-3-carbinol.
Over and above their numerous other beneficial effects, the isothiocyanates in these are thought by experts to significantly lower the risk of getting cancer.
