A recipe for dinner so you can knit longer
Your family will think you put the knitting down for hours with this one...

Even my kids ask for this one...Enjoy

Honey Currey Chicken over Rice

put chicken parts or what ever you have in a roasting pan.

Mix
1/4 cup mustard
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup melted butter (marg)
4 tblsp curry powder

pour over chicken.
Put into a 350 degree oven for about 1 hour.

Make minute rice if you want more time to knit or 20 minute rice if you do not want to feel guilty about the time spent on dinner.

Walllllaaaaaaa

Here's an old stand bye. Throw either pork chops/ chicken breasts,etc. in the crock pot. Stir in some cream of........ soup (fill in your favorite, I have used celery, mushroom, etc.) add seasonings, chopped onions, etc. some broth, I usually use chicken broth, but w/ pork could use beef or pork stock of course.

Set this on low and leave for the day.. go and knit in your favorite space, go to work, then come home & knit, then go into kitchen.

Add some canned veggies, and turn crock pot on high. 20 minutes, its done.

I usually added corn and mushrooms.

This can be served w/ rice or fresh green salad... whatever is easier. I've used this since college days. So let's just say it has been very well tested.!

Put a pound of navy beans in the crock pot and fill up to within an inch of the top with water or stock. Add onion, garlic, salt and pepper and any other seasonsing you like. Turn on high and let sit for a few hours (beans are done when you put one on the spoon, blow on it and the skin peels back). Turn on low till one hour before dinner. Add bag of mixed veggies and let heat back up. Serve with French bread, rolls, refrigerator biscuits, or crackers.

Everyone can eat whenever they are hungry and you don't have to stop knitting except to feed yourself!

Kryssie, I was so intrigued by the title of your post I had to check it out! Dinner preparation time is always harried around here because it's about the time that everybody's getting home; ironically, it's always the time I want to knit most! This recipe sounds delicious--I'm going to try this either today or tomorrow. Thanks for enabling us knitting addicts!!!

Can you do that honey curry chicken in a crockpot? Either way I am pulling my chicken out to thaw when I go to refill my coffee this morning! YUM!

One question--is it 1/2 cup of melted butter, or 1/2 stick?

Girls I am happy that I helped you with your kntting to help with dinner.

To Cookworm the reciepe calls for 1/2 cup. I am not sure what 1/2 stick is.

In Canada our blocked marg comes in 1/2 cup blocks and that is what I use.

Hope that helps..

To Yarn Mommy crockpot works just as well, low heat for about 4 hours.

Sorry I have not figured out how to post the questions on my answer post like some do.
