Recipe Preparation ~ Chicken & Dumplings ~ from Sloane Taylor's Date Night Dinners #Cookbook #AmEating #EasytoPrepare #Yummy @SloaneTaylor2


Book Details:

Publication Date: May 29, 2018

Page Count: 136 pages

Genre: Cookbook:

The recipe I chose to make for this stop on the tour was the Chicken & Dumplings recipe. The entire process is super simple and makes a very tasty meal. I actually made the recipe twice. The first time I prepared the recipe was August 8, 2018. One of the ingredients is chicken stock but I only had a carton of low sodium chicken broth. I also used heart healthy Bisquick for the dumplings. The chicken and dumplings turned out absolutely wonderful and delicious.




  
 The second time I prepared the recipe was September 4, 2018. I actually used chicken stock this time. I used heart healthy Bisquick for the dumplings again. 








I really enjoyed the chicken and dumplings using the stock and the chicken broth. There were subtle differences in taste but both were flavorful. We were able to get 2 days worth of meals both times I prepared the recipe. The dumplings were just as good the next day as they were the first. 

I highly recommend this cookbook!

Recipe Preparation ~ Tomato and Cucumber Salad from Sloane Taylor's Date Night Dinners #AmEating #EasytoPrepare #Yummy @SloaneTaylor2

For our dinner last night, I made the Tomato & Cucumber Salad recipe and the Chicken & Dumplings recipe. This blog post is all about the Tomato and Cucumber Salad. The Chicken & Dumplings recipe will be featured on Sapphyria's Book Promotions in October.

Tomato & Cucumber Salad is a really easy recipe to make. Only taking four ingredients it's not only time-saving but inexpensive, as well. All you need are:


a. Plum or Roma tomatoes (I used regular garden tomatoes because our local store doesn't carry plum tomatoes and my husband doesn't particularly like Romas).

b. A cucumber 

c. Fresh ground pepper

d. Fresh, snipped chives

Prep is fast and you'll soon have a nice bowl of tomato and cucumber salad waiting to be eaten with dinner. 



I put the completed salad on my counter, away from heat, and prepared the Chicken & Dumpling recipe. Once the meal was ready, the salad was plated and enjoyed!


I was amazed at the wonderful flavoring of this salad. You wouldn't think pepper and chives would do much but they really enhanced the flavor of the tomatoes and cucumbers. Letting is sit gave the salad some zip and my husband thought I drizzled a little bit of white vinegar on the salad. There was a nice, mild zing that turned plain tomatoes and cucumbers into a wonderful side dish.

Here is what the table looked like with both the salad and the main course:


Stay tuned for my review of the prep and flavor of Sloane Taylor's Chicken & Dumplings recipe on Sapphyria's Book Promotions. See schedule below for other great reviews of the recipes in Date Night Dinners.

Date Night Dinners is a wonderful collection of recipes. Many of the recipes use ingredients commonly found in your pantry. Whether you're in the mood for beef, pork, chicken, fish, veggies, or salad, this cookbook has a little bit of everything. You can even try your hand at international dishes from Russia, Poland, Italy, China, and other countries.

I enjoy the simplicity of the delicious sounding recipes and will be preparing some of them soon. The author also makes sure to discuss pairing the perfect side dishes, also found in the cookbook, and adult beverages with some of the meals. There are several sections in the book, each food category broken down into its own heading. 

Even those with food sensitivities will find value in this cookbook. One of the best parts of a cookbook, besides the food you prepare, is the ability to customize a recipe to your own liking or necessity. For example, those with gluten allergies will be able to substitute wheat pasta for gluten free. I'm excited to try Sloane Taylor's cookbook out with my family. I'm always looking for something new and different. Date Night Dinners will help spice up those same ole-same ole meals.
