Cajun Chicken
It was so hot outside, this was the perfect recipe for not heating up the house, and all the ingredients were on hand for me. The chicken was SUPER moist, we loved it. Served atop a large dinner salad. A simple, yet delicious, and healthy dinner.

Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream
My husband wants to marry me all over again. He is a peanut butter & chocolate junkie. My son and I love PB too, so I knew this would go over pretty well. I will say, though, that I'm SO glad I read the reviews about lessening the pb. I only put 1/2 cup and it was still VERY rich, and like I said we love pb in this house, so at least consider reducing it a bit. I may even put a little less next time, and/or add a little more milk, because it also was extremely thick. After letting it chill in the freezer for a couple hours it was like a brick, lol. I used a couple of regular size dark chocolate pb cups instead of the minis (more cost efficient), and I had homemade chocolate syrup on hand for topping just in case it was too rich, and that ended up taking the edge off the "pb straight from the jar" taste. Tasted like a frozen reese's. I am SO my family's hero right now!

Cinnamon Ice Cream
OK, the first night that I served this ice cream to my family, my son (who inhales anything) took a couple of bites and said, "does anyone want my ice cream". I thought it was too rich, and my husband asked was it cheesecake flavor, lol. But, a couple of days later, we decided to give it another try with some apple pie...OMG!!!! TO DIE FOR!! Now I know what the fuss was about. This is an awesome recipe, my only recommendation is to PLEASE eat it with something. Cookies, apple pie, something to complement the taste. Tonight I made some gingersnap cookies to try with it, and was sad to see that there was hardly any left (after our apple pie session =) ) I have to make another batch soon, because all we do now is dream of the endless things that we could eat this ice cream with. My hubby keeps saying he's craving apple pie (I know what he really means....lol)
