Some recipes I'm thinking of trying

These all came out of the February 2011 issue of Chatelaine Magazine that I got free from the Apprentice's hair salon, back while she was still working there last summer.  I was being her volunteer head so that she could finish her course (you do not want to know how awful I look in a finger wave), and while she was doing things to my hair, I got interested in the magazine and asked if I could take it home since it was already a few months old.  Turns out that the recipes are online too, but I didn't think of that at the time.

Red-curry-peanut noodles with chicken and broccoli

(Mr. Fixit can't handle peanut butter in any large amount, but we'll either cut it way back or figure something else out...like maybe using cashew butter.)

Smoky corn chowder with bacon

Herbed cheddar soda bread

Spanish Rice with peppers and sausage  (no chorizo for us--we've tried it and it was a bit too much.  But I might try it with a less-heat sausage.)

Chunky chipotle-pork chili  (also no chipotles for us this time around, mainly because we don't have any.  But for our wussy tongues, the chili powder would probably be enough, and Mr. Fixit can add his own Frank's Hot Sauce.)

This one's not from Chatelaine, but it looks very melt-in-your-mouth:  Strawberry 2 Ingredient Fudge.  This was linked recently from A Holy Experience, and I thought it looked good then, so I checked this weekend to see if our discount supermarket carries canned strawberry frosting--it's not something I've ever had a reason to look for.  Nope--they just had chocolate and a couple of kinds of vanilla, which was not a big surprise. Well, I'll check around; we could always add some flavouring to a can of vanilla frosting, I guess.
