Grilled Cajun Chicken

Tonight we used the Cajun mayo from last nights salmon patty burgers. We slathered it all over chicken breasts. I made slits in the chicken breasts to get it inside too. Then My husband grilled them to perfection outside. We had a simple ranch green salad on the side, it made a quick and totally delicious dinner!! Kids loved it!

To make the mayo simply add any cajun seasoning to mayo and whip with a fork. Grill will care! Yum! 

Cream of Potato Corn Chowder with thyme

I cook down about 8-14 cubed (Yukon Gold) potatoes and a diced onion with enough water to cover them. When done I add:

•  about a cup of milk
• stick of butter
• a few handfuls of frozen corn
• a few shakes onion powder and a dash of garlic powder
• a palmful of thyme
•  salt to taste
• dash of pepper
• 2 tbs chicken flavor (Tones brand NO MSG).

I mash this up a bit leaving huge chucks of taters and some smaller ones. Simmer everything into a yummy hearty soup. I make sure it's plenty "brothy" because it's good that way, plus the starch thickens when it's refrigerated.

Crispy Brown Salmon Burgers

Last night my hubby and I made perfectly browned salmon burgers with green pepper in them with Muenster cheese delicately melted on top! Was delicious, especially with the Cajun mayo we whipped up for the bun. I want more!

 For the salmon burgers I add to one can of salmon, 2 eggs, a sprinkle of shredded cheese, a handful of corn from the freezer, seasoned bread crumbs, a teaspoon of Italian seasoning, a dash of cayenne pepper, diced green bell pepper (red is ...super tasty as well). Form small thin burgers and brown on each side in lightly oiled skillet. Don't make "burgers" too thick or they will be mushy! If you want a bigger patty put two thinner ones on your bun. For the Cajun mayo we just mix Cajun seasoning in mayo and whip with fork. Serious yum.
