Happy Friday!
Just a few Babbles to share!
- I am so happy this post with my recipe for chicken mole finally published over on Babble – I’m really proud of it! We call it Timon and Pumbaa’s Mud Chicken for fun. The mole is deeeelicious, easy to throw together (uses the crock pot) and healthy. And it’s not too hot, so kids can eat it too.
- Zazu’s Tropical Fruit Salad, with a really tasty light dressing
- If you want to order dessert for Thanksgiving, here is a list of gourmet retailers with some delicious looking items! And you still have time to order from most of them for Thanksgiving!
That’s all I’ve got. I’m furiously trying to get everything ready for our house guests and to kick off a week of FUN!
As always, please share whatever you like!
Hi! My name is Jane Maynard and you've landed yourself on my blog, This Week for Dinner™. Every Sunday I share a weekly menu...and count on you to share yours! You'll also find other deliciousness that I hope you'll enjoy!
I love mole….but I cheat and use Dona Marie’s in the jar 🙂 I do it in the crockpot too. I will have to try yours so I can be more authentic!!
it’s so funny you say that – when I was developing the recipe, I called my neighbor who is from mexico to ask if she had any recipes she liked that I could look at – and she said, “I just buy the jar at the store!” 😉
I don’t think I have ever tried mole. Heard of it… I think I will give it a whirl!
Looks good! Is there anything to use as a substitute for almond butter? I never have that on hand.
hi christine! the almond butter was sort of short cut for the recipe since many traditional recipes involve roasting and grinding almonds. there is a martha stewart recipe out there, however, where you just toss 1/2 cup almonds into the blender with the other ingredients that are blended – so I think you could probably just do that! the texture of the sauce may change a bit, but I think it wouldn’t be too significant. hope that’s helpful!
