Asparagus, Feta and Couscous Salad
This is a great side dish- and easy too! Here is what I did to make it really tasty....cook the couscous in chicken broth. Then I roasted both the asparagus and the cherry tomatoes (cut in half) with a drizzle of olive oil and a generous shake of salt and pepper. I also added some sliced green onion. Mixed the oil and vinegar in a small bowl, then dressed the couscous and vegetables with it. I then tossed it with some really good quality goat feta, although only 4 oz. We enjoyed this side with some grilled salmon! YUM!

Grilled Lemon Chicken
This was an excellent and easy marinade for chicken. I pounded my chicken thin- then had to run out the door- so my 17 year old son, put together the marinade per the directions (except for chopped red pepper- as I didn't have any), put it all in a zip-lock and back into the refrigerator. I let the chicken marinate about 3 hours,then cooked it on the grill. It tasted amazing! Will definately make again.

Slow Cooker Lemon Garlic Chicken II
I have made this recipe twice. The first time, I made it as directed, except, I used canned chicken stock and juice of 1& 1/2 lemons (didn't measure the amount of juice). I added everything to the slow cooker- and I thought the chicken was a bit dried out- but with good flavor. The sauce did NOT cover all the chicken- that's why I think it dried out. Then last night I made the recipe again...but rather than putting it all into the slow cooker, I removed the browned chicken from the fry pan, then added the liquid ingredients to the fry pan to deglaze, and then returned the chicken to the original fry pan, covered it, reduced the heat, and let it all simmer until the chicken was cooked through. Once the chicken was cooked all through (about 20 minutes), I again removed the chicken to a serving dish,and then added a bit of corn starch to thicken the sauce. I tasted it- it was a bit strong- so I added a bit of water to dilute. I poured the sauce over the chicken and served with broccoli and rice. Totally gone! Now, not THE VERY BEST- but very quick, easy, and the gang ate it up! I will definately make again...just without the slow cooker!
