Moving and Recipe Variation

Moving really takes it out of me, or moving in the desert heat does. We are so excited about getting settled in our new apartment, but all of the moving and unpacking have not left much time for cooking and blogging. Hopefully, that will change really soon.

My goal is to put up one new food post or recipe each week after we get fully settled into our new apartment. I might also start adding some other things, too. We'll see how it all goes.

Anyway, I just wanted to let any faithful readers out there know that we will be coming back soon. I'm looking forward to taking pictures that include our new dishes and glasses, and using some of our new kitchen gadgets.

One quick variation of a previously posted recipe. Tonight, we made buffalo chicken pockets. Instead of bell peppers and onions, as in the chicken philly pockets, we left out the bell peppers, onions, and spices, and made buffalo pockets with spinach and Frank's Red Hot. I thawed and drained a 12 oz. package of frozen chopped spinach and added it after the chicken was cooked through. Once the spinach was warmed, I added the block of cream cheese and some Frank's to taste, probably 1/4 - 1/3 c. for our taste. Then we filled the pockets and baked them. Delicious!

I hope everyone is enjoying summer!
