Honey Mustard Slaw

Sweet, tangy, and even diet friendly.

•1 Medium head cabbage (or any combination), shredded or chopped
•2 Tbsp. yellow mustard
•2 Tbsp. dijon mustard
•3 Tbsp. honey
•3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
•1 Tsp. poppy seeds
•½ Tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Combine the mustards, honey, oil, poppy seeds, and pepper in a container with a tight fitting lid. Shake the ingredients vigorously until thoroughly combined, and chill for at least 24 hours. When ready to serve, toss the cabbage with the dressing.

Taking a short hiatus...

Morning sickness and cooking don't exactly go hand in hand. Never fear, I will be back.

Sweet Teriyaki Chicken

Another slow cooker recipe.

•3-4 Medium boneless, skinless chicken breast
•1/3 Cup bottled teriyaki sauce (kikkoman)
•1/3 Cup packed brown sugar
•1 Tsp. freshly grated ginger root
•½ Tsp. garlic powder
•1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
•3 Servings soba noodles

Combine the sauce, sugar, ginger, vinegar, and garlic powder. Pour the mixture over the chicken in your crock pot. Cook on high for 2-3 hours, until tender enough to shred with a fork. Shred the chicken, then continue cooking while you prepare the noodles according to the package directions. Serve the chicken over the noodles and pour over the extra sauce. If you want extra sauce, I like to make another batch of the sauce on the stove to serve along with it.
