WFD?

I was in and out of appointments with DD all day and have ZERO thawed meat. So I have no clue what my plan is, yet. Maybe pasta with homemade pesto... or something simple like that. What are you having?

OH, I have a whole chicken for later this week and want some different/funky recipe - so feel free to leave me your favorite!

Pasta is always a good fall back meal.

We are having crockpot chicken noodle soup.  I used bone in split chicken breasts, so it will hopefully be extra delicious.

Nothing frozen either. I got this amazing thick cut, hickory smoked bacon from the store. I am not sure if any of you have Festival Foods where you live, but their meat departments are to die for.

YUM! Bacon wrapped scallops were one of apps at our wedding... we ordered 3 extra trays just for the wedding party "suite". Each tray was supposed to feed 10-15 people and there were only 12 people in our wedding. Hahaha.

I googled it, and no we don't :(  Good seafood in AZ is hard to come by and expensive.  And scallops are my FAVORITE.

I think it is a midwest thing. They have fresh seafood flown in daily I believe. Right now they are having "Seafood Fest". All seafood is on sale. I did still pay about $30 for a dozen scallops though. However, they are really big. That piece of bacon will barely wrap all the way around them. Oh and I can't forget the melted butter!

I'm meeting one of my girlfriends for dinner, just not sure where yet.

But for chicken recipe, I do this all the time and it comes out so juicy and good. I chop up about a tablespoon of thyme and a tablespoon of rosemary (both fresh if you have it) and combine with two minced cloves of garlic, salt, pepper and a good amount of olive oil. I shove that under the skin and then on top too and it comes out amazingly good. That's how I made the turkey for Thanksgiving too.
