Summer Salad Season Crunchy Chicken – Sweet and Savory Salad

Summer Salad Season Crunchy Chicken – Sweet and Savory Salad

Hello Pretty Ladies,

I hope you had a great weekend. The weather in Utah has been beautiful, and we’ve been spending a lot of time outside working on Yard and Garden projects and craving salads. With that being said, for today’s “In the Kitchen with D’Arcy,” I am sharing my recipe for my Crunchy Chicken – Sweet and Savory Salad. It’s so good, the mix of crunchy Chicken and sweet pecans with the savory flavor of Blue cheese gives this mixed green and veggie salad that wow factor.

Crunchy Chicken – Sweet and Savory Salad Recipe:

2 Panko-crusted chicken breasts cut into cubes ( I use my Chicken Schnitzel recipe) (I make a couple extra that week for dinner & reserve to make this salad that week)

One Bag of mixed greens of your choice or hand chop ( I like 1 chopped romaine, 1 chopped iceberg, and a handful of spinach)

1/2 cup Green onions

1 large tomato, diced

One Carrot sliced however you like

1 cup Blue cheese crumbles

1 cup Candied pecans

Fresh pepper to taste

Balsamic glaze for drizzle

Homemade garlic croutons (I use leftover garlic bread, cut into cubes and warm in the oven until crispy)

My dressing of choice is a homemade Italian vinaigrette or balsamic vinegar; the boys prefer blue cheese dressing.

How to serve:

This salad serves four as a main course for dinner. If so, I make four salads in individual bowls by dividing the ingredients evenly. If serving as a side or taking it to a party, I add everything to a large wooden salad bowl and mix the lettuce with a good toss. Then, I layer all the ingredients except the salad dressing and let people add that to their liking.

One cup of shredded cheddar cheese (reserve 1/4 cup to roll a ball in)

1 cup green onions (reserve 1/4 cup to roll ball in)

1/2 teaspoon Garlic Salt

Crackers of your choice (wheat thins are best), it’s a hard enough cracker to scoop up without breaking.

To create your Recipe:

In a medium-sized bowl

Use a mixer and whip up the cream cheese. When softened, add the cheese and mix until smooth. Then, add the green onion and garlic salt. Mix up.

Form into a ball, roll in the reserved green onion and cheese, place it back in the bowl, and cover. Place in the refrigerator until ready to use.

I prefer to make this a day in advance for optimal flavor.

Turkey Stew and Dumplings Recipe

Turkey stew and dumplings Recipe

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Today is a simple and short recipe blog post.

I hope you’re having a great week and your Sunday is going well. Today’s ” In the Kitchen with D’Arcy” is an easy recipe for using up leftovers, especially for Holiday leftovers. This recipe also makes substitutions easy. Swap out turkey for any beef or chicken protein you may have, and add vegetables.

Turkey stew and dumplings Recipe: You’ll love this recipe, and it’s perfect for using up holiday leftovers. It is a yummy recipe that you can quickly adapt to what you have on hand in your fridge.

Turkey stew and dumplings

Have leftover Turkey?

A yummy twist on Chicken pot pie; if you have leftover stuffing, top stew with stuffing. Bake. Or a more manageable option than making dumplings, cover with Pillsbury biscuits or croissants—even a pie crust. I love that you can get creative with this recipe and use what you have from holiday meals.

Turkey Stew Recipe:

Leftover turkey cut up into cubes (or shredded) I had about two cups left over

1 16ox chicken/turkey or vegetable broth

2 cups water

2 potatoes chopped /cubed

1 cup carrots

1 cup celery

One cup onion

1 cup of peas

1 pack of turkey gravy

One bay leave

One chicken bouillon cube

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Salt to taste

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon parsley

1/2 cup heavy cream

3 tablespoons flour (save for later)

Add all ingredients except flour!

Stovetop: Simmer on low or in the crockpot. When hot, whisk in 3 tablespoons of flour to thicken.

Topping variations:

Turkey stew & Dumplings.

Cook on stove Top: Add your dumplings to the top once thickened and let simmer until cooked.

I like our dumplings cooked more. I use the method below, as I do for covering them with biscuits or stuffing. You could even use a pie crust for a turkey pot pie.

If using Biscuits or stuffing, once the stew thickens, Turn it off and oil a 9×13 baking dish. Add the Turkey Stew, top with biscuits or leftover stuffing, and bake until the top is golden brown.

Build Your Pizza Bar for a Fun Family Meal

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Happy Sunday! I genuinely hope you’re having a beautiful one. I am finally back home and trying to get back into my routine and be as normal as possible. As some of you may know, we lost my stepdad ( like a father to me and the only Papa our boys knew) on January 3rd. I’ve been with my mom in Las Vegas since then, and on top of that, we decided it was best to get her packed up and ready to move to Utah to be close to Family and not by herself in Las Vegas by the end of the month.

That put a lot on my plate, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Talk about a lot at once and so much change for my mom. The loss of her true love, downsizing, retiring from doing hair, and a big move to Utah all in a matter of weeks. My mom is with my sister in California for a few days ( I took her there and spent a few days with the Family). That was a nice little break from all the packing, cleaning, and sorting.

My Family will head to Las Vegas to meet my Brother, sister, and nephews. Then, we will finish packing up Mom and head back to Utah. Meanwhile, I need to look for a house and storage unit for her. She’ll stay with us until we find something. Please keep us in your prayers.

Build Your Pizza Bar

On pizza night, we used some leftovers and homemade ingredients.

Use up those leftovers and create a Pizza night your Family will love. They can make their own and get creative to try new things. So, if you plan your meals for the week and have a pasta night a few nights before, it works out great. Because I like to space out Italian food a couple of days apart, this helps to use up those little bits of leftovers you may have had.

What you need to build a pizza bar:

Rhodes rolls

Homemade Alfredo sauce recipe here

Homemade marinara or your favorite Jar

Asparagus (leftovers)

Sautés Mushrooms (leftovers)

Fresh Tomatoes

Ham ( leftover Easter) That I had thrown in the freezer

Sausage

Pepperoni (variety)

Prosciutto

Fresh sliced tomatoes

Mozzarella, Asiago, Romano, Parmesan cheese (leftover from this week’s Fettuccine night)

Chopped Garlic

Fresh Rosemary

Fresh Basil

Spinach

Green onions

Olives

Italian seasonings

Garlic powder

Onion salt

Sea Salt

Balsamic glaze or vinegar

Olive oil

Preheat oven to 425 unless you have a pizza oven. We cook the pizzas for 10 or 12 minutes, depending on the range! It also depends on how crispy you like your pizza.

Tip using Rhodes Rolls to make the mini Pizzas.

These make individual mini pizzas. Ensure you do enough rolls per person; I did 2-3 per person. (for the rolls, follow the directions on the bag) Then, after they’ve risen all day, each person flattens and pulls theirs out to shape and top with desired toppings. Some family members made little calzone instead of a mini pizza.

Building the Pizza Bar

Part of Building Your Own Pizza Bar’s fun is getting creative and trying different things on your pizza. My Family loves this interactive meal; it’s fun to hear them chat, joke, and talk their way through creating their pizzas.

Easy Four Ingredients Recipe: To have Your Home Smelling Like William Sonoma

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Happy Sunday. I hope you’re having a beautiful November so far. It’s been chilly in Utah this week, and we even had a little snow dusting. Thank goodness that didn’t last, as I am not ready for that yet. I’ve been busy trying to prepare for the Holidays; some of you may know I decorated several homes for the Holidays and all my clients like their homes decorated before Thanksgiving.

This makes November the busiest month for me, between decorating and styling for clients ( I shop for them as well), decorating our home, creating content for you, and getting gift guides ready to help make your shopping easier. Honestly, I love what I do, and having the goal to have everything done before Thanksgiving helps me enjoy the month of December and take in the special moments of the season.

Here are a couple of tips I have for enjoying the season.

This week, I am getting our Christmas cards ordered and am almost done Christmas shopping; this has helped me create excellent gift guides for you, as I will be sharing many of the items I am giving this year. (If you follow my stories on Instagram, you’ve already seen several.)

I aim to have everything wrapped by the end of next week; my Holiday Wrapping paper should be here from All Wrapped Up in the next couple of days. This Is what I chose this year: ONE & this ONE. I have always pushed myself to finish shopping and wrapping, as I love seeing the gifts under the tree. Again, this is another way to enjoy the holiday season. It takes away some of the season’s stress, and it goes by so fast that doing everything early really makes a difference.

Why is it okay to start Christmas prepping early?

They say it’s earlier and earlier every year. What I do for a living has to be getting content and ideas done in time to share with you, but in reality, it’s beneficial to prep way ahead, taking away stress and giving you more enjoyable moments. Yes, it’s a lot of work, but it’s better to spread it out than force it all into 20-ish days.

It gives me time to bake or host a gingerbread-making night with the family; I can have a party for my girlfriends without feeling like I have so much more to do. Our family can see the lights in Salt Lake City and the Giant Gingerbread Houses at the Grand America.

One of my favorite things to do with my hubby is to go to a pretty mall to take in the festive feels of the season, have lunch, and not need to purchase anything, but If I see something I can pick up, I do, without having to check anything off a list. HINT (This is when my hubby shops) It’s a great way to get your hubby to the mall:)

Today’s Sunday Recipe:

Now That I’ve filled you in on a little behind-the-scenes and my thought process, let me share a Fast and easy recipe today for making your home smell excellent with items you probably already have on hand. Watch my video HERE

Four Meat Chili Recipe

Happy Sunday!

Hi Pretty Ladies,

Happy November! Before we know it, Thanksgiving will be here. I hope you had a great Halloween. I spent it with a couple of girlfriends, wishing a good friend goodbye as she’ll be moving out of state in a few days. It was a fun night catching up, sharing good food, and having a couple of glasses of prosecco. My girlfriend’s home is in a neighborhood that gets trick-or-treaters, so seeing the cute littles in their costumes was fun.

Can you believe that the next day, I took down and packed up the fall and Halloween decorations and started decorating for Christmas? But I am doing it with more of a winter feeling. Fresh herbs and citrus, pinecones and greenery with candles and velvet ribbon, and pulling out my vintage green transferware. My Holiday decorations are buried in my storage this year; usually, my storage room is organized (this year, it’s packed to the brim)

With content creation as my job, I have to have our home decorated way before the season to share ideas and the season with you. Not to mention, Thanksgiving is so late this year that if I wait too long, I won’t enjoy the season. I also decorate Christmas trees for several clients, who all want theirs done before Thanksgiving, so I got a good jumpstart.

My four-meat chili recipe has been a family favorite ever since. It’s below. I also had to share some great sales you don’t want to miss and a few things you could have missed this week.

A Few Fall Favorites

FallA Few Fall Favorites

Hello Pretty Ladies,

It’s officially Fall! Wow, I think that was the fastest summer ever! I love summer and Fall—my two favorite seasons—and they seem the shortest here in Utah! Fall means my birthday month is coming. I have my Fall bucket list ready and am looking forward to crisp mornings and evenings and the stunning shades of the season.

Today, I am sharing some fall favorites for our monthly blog hop with Suzanne, Cindy, and Dawn.

I will keep this one short and sweet! Below, you will find all the fun things I want to share, including my family’s favorite recipe for this easy pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe and a few things you could have missed. (I’ll be sharing the sunflower field later next week.)

Sharing a great Fall transition outfit, you can easily style multiple ways, and I thought I would share with you two ways to style it by just switching out the 3rd piece. Here are the details:

Sale Alerts: Chicos wide-leg crop pants are $44 and perfect with a bootie. The pants fit tts. I am wearing a size 4 Chico’s size 0, which pairs perfectly with a bootie for Fall.

-Bootie is a Dolce Vida two-tone with a little Western vibe (last year), linking similar Here

-Olive button-up Amazon find

-The Amazon denim shacket jacket is slightly distressed, affordable & fits tts, and is perfect for summer to fall weather

-A necklace, a vintage horn

-Hat is by lack of color

The 2nd look is everything above, with the jacket switched out to the ivory Denim jacket by Chico’s
