Sometimes I just have chicken and a few veggies in the fridge.
Sure, I could make the same chicken dinner I always make: it's easy, quick, brainless, and everybody likes it... or they used to. But sometimes we get bored with the same old...

I'm not sure I've ever met anyone who doesn't like Beef Stroganoff.
It's a classic American-style dinner that is delicious and sat...

Lamb is a very nutrient-dense food, so it's great to get it into your diet every so often.
The problem for some, though, (me included) is that it has a very strong taste that some people just don't like. I have a difficult time eating lamb because of that strong ...
It seems like a good casserole is everyone's favorite: it's the original one-pot dish, and the combination of flavors and textures always adds up to a delicious, satisfying meal.
Whenever I come across a new recipe (especially one pot recipes, but really any recipe in general) I try to adapt it t...
I really love recipes that allow me to use whatever I have on hand.
To me, there's nothing much worse than finding a great recipe that I really want to try that calls for ingredients that I don't already have.
For the holidays or a special occasion it's fine to buy ingredients just for one specif...
With a little preparation that I am already doing anyway, there are plenty of meals that are just as quick and easy as those meal-in-a-box kits and taste even better.
This recipe, which reminds me of that oh-so-famous helper to our hamburger, is one such easy meal.
The prep and cooking times are ...

I read that in Kentucky they used to have Derby-watching parties, and this was the traditional entree at such parties. Cool!
The ingredients are simple enough, and in some places you can even find a frozen mix of "gumbo vegetables" that could...
Usually casseroles are made in the oven, but I like to adapt them for VitaClay because the clay always makes my dishes taste so great, and I don't have to babysit the food while it cooks.
I don't even have to be home! Or awake! I can run errands, take a nap, or go pick up my kid from school while...
There's nothing like chicken noodle soup for comfort food when you're feeling under the weather.
But now it's springtime and we're mostly over the cold-and-flu portion of the year, at least until after summer.
Does that mean we don't need comfort food? Of course not.
Even though the weather is wa...
Chicken pot pie is another comfort food that reminds me of delicious meals when I was growing up.
Sometimes we'd have them for dinner, and sometimes it was just an after-school snack (on extra hungry days).
But it was always delicious, filling and satisfying.
We used to buy the frozen ones and he...
Sometimes dishes with really fancy-sounding names, such as Beef Stroganoff, Pad Thai, and Ratatouille fool us into thinking that we couldn't ever possibly make something like that in our own kitchens, at least not without help.
I, too, used to be intimidated by these exotic-sounding dishes, think...
For me, ham and cheese is one of the ultimate comfort foods. I'm not sure why, but the combination gets me every time.
It's warm, satisfying and delicious, and just makes me feel good. I like to look for recipes that are comforting without being unhealthy or fattening, and I find that usually the...
The weekend is again upon us, and I know the last thing I want to do is spend all weekend in the kitchen preparing meals. I like to cook, but the weekends are for fun!

Stews are my favorite kind of meal, because they are so easy to prepare, especially in VitaClay--and they come out so delicious every time! So I like to make a big batch and eat from it all week. School and work ...
Try this great chicken & veggies recipe I tested out recently: it was a hit! I think I've found a new family favorite!
Ingredients for Clay Pot Veggies & Honey Garlic Chicken:
2–3 pounds chicken (dark meat preferred, or a mix of cuts)
1 pound green beans, trimmed
1 pound carrots, chopped...
Ever wish you could make “fast food” at home?
Sometimes you just need a meal that is quick, easy, delicious, and that you can feel good about feeding to your family.
We all have days that we don't want to cook. We're too tired, or we have too much going on, or we just need something to feed every...
Suitable for VF7700 & VM7900 series models.
One of our recent recipes talked about how we can make real food fast food at home.
It usually takes a little bit of prep work, such as already having some home-made Alfredo sauce on hand (though a jar of store-bought will certainly do in a pinch) ...

Because VitaClay is called a “rice and slow cooker,” sometimes people don't realize how many other things can be cooked in VitaClay as well. For example, really any grain can be cooked in VitaClay, and most of them you can use the rice setting.
Quinoa comes out great in VitaClay using the white r...
How about a stew that is quick and easy, doesn't require much prep work and is tasty and delicious for the whole family?
If you ever have one of those days when you just can't get it all together and nothing is going according to plan, the last thing you want to deal with is a healthy, home-cooke...
I love this beef goulash recipe, because it's basically just a revised version of our yummy beef stew.
It really isn't much different, as far as ingredients, prep and cooking time, but the flavor of the sauce is quite different, especially if sour cream is added into the sauce at the end.
The tom...
