30 Jan posted by TidyMom

I’m a big fan of garlic! I put it in every dish, any chance I get. I use garlic cloves, minced garlic, garlic powder, garlic salt, and now, thanks to Lia Marie’s, I can add garlic butter to my arsenal! Keep reading for a delicious chicken recipe!

Lia Maries spreads

Lia Marie’s is a revolutionary new garlic spread that allows you to enjoy the incomparable taste of fresh, homemade garlic bread anytime, prepared just the way you like it! With it’s unique blend of roasted garlic, natural cheeses, butter, oil and savory seasonings you can experience, not only mouth-watering bread bursting with flavor, but this spread goes way beyond the bread!

Over the next few months, I plan to share a variety of dishes you can serve your family using either of the two varieties of Lia Marie’s spread! From bread, to salad, to pasta and chicken, you’ll wonder how you ever cooked with out it!

Lia Marie's garlic bread

Of course, Lia Marie’s spread is perfect on your favorite bread to serve along side any meal. The first night we tried it was on a loaf of french bread with our spaghetti dinner and it was a big hit! The four of us polished off the entire loaf of bread with dinner that night!

I knew next I would like to try it with chicken. It was really simple and really delicious! I think my husband told me at least four times at dinner that night how much he liked it – no joking! lol It was actually a very simple ‘recipe’ but the Lia Marie’s just kicked it up a notch!

comfort food

noun

simple, home-style food that brings comforting thoughts of home or childhood.

When I hear the words “comfort food” Macaroni and Cheese is one of the first things that comes to mind. It’s an ooey-gooey food that warms you, makes you feel cozy, soothes you when you need it and reminds you of childhood.

What happens when you mix comfort food with man food? It’s a recipe made in heaven. I knew when I first ran across this recipe for Buffalo Chicken Macaroni and Cheese it had my family’s name written all over it (with just a few modifications).

A few weeks ago I mentioned a little trip I was taking with Bush’s Beans, to Paws Up Resort in Montana. We had a Bean Inspired Culinary experience. While in Montana, we cooked several recipes together as part of an amazing team of bloggers, chefs, PR friends and of course….Bush’s Beans. I plan to share those recipe with you over the next few month, but today I like to share my new favorite bean soup recipe!

This was our third trip together as a team bean and I think we all agreed probably the best. Not only because of the location, but the fact that we are all so comfortable together, like family………..family that you WANT to spend time with.

I think as moms and bloggers, we all felt a little stressed up arrival, but the moment we stepped foot out of the van in Montana it was like a fresh breath of peace and tranquility. The view at Paws Up was breath taking. We shared lodges together, built fires, rode horses, cooked in kitchens, cooked outdoors, laughed, dined, shared and learned together.

“Warmer connections happen when you’re comfortable just being you. When you don’t have to put on a facade, pretend you are something you are not, when you can ask silly questions, you can make mistakes in the kitchen and no one laughs or judges you, and when you learn to love.“

~Sandy Coughlin, Reluctant Entertainer

I put together a video to capture some of our time together at Paws Up Resort. I have to say, if you ever want a getaway that’s filled with peace and quiet in the great outdoors, but don’t want to miss any luxuries………this is your place! I would love to go back for a little glamping.
