We're not all gals here in the food and cooking section.

There are quite a number of guys doing the cooking out there. I posted a poll several months ago and of the respondents it seemed that more than 50% of the husbands did 50/50, more than 50 or all (or nearly all) of the cooking. It's becoming much more the norm for men do to a fair share of the cooking.

P.S. Totally agree with your post.

I think that response is kind of mean and exaggerated. I don't necessarily cook this way either, but the posted recipes are easy solutions to the question the OP had. The responder took time and energy out of her busy day to post these recipes in an effort to help, not self aggrandize. I am amazed at how many recipes this gal (assuming it's a gal)threw out there. Besides, the ingredients need not be full fat. What's wrong , for example, with subbing the sour cream in the last recipe with fat free sour cream or fat free yogurt? and the recipe before it? ...Both sound healthy and low fat to me.

This reminds me of the poster who writes "Gross" in response to recipes she doesn't like. Mean and juvenile.

Agree. And wrong. These sound pretty good to me and easy to use low-fat ingredients.

I've posted this one a couple of times before in response to other threads, but this is one of our favorite recipes:
Chicken Chili Verde http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Chicken-Chili-Verde-3012

It's best with chicken thighs, but can be made with white meat to use up leftovers. I sub poblano peppers for the green peppers. And make sure to get good quality chili powder. The better flavored chili powder makes a huge difference. We buy ours from the Chili Shop http://www.thechilishop.com

Giada has a chicken tetrazzine recipe that's pretty good, but very creamy.

I simply like to make a stock out of leftover bones... and use it for congee or chicken noodle soup or potato/leek soup.

And usually throw leftover chicken pieces either into a salad, or sandwich or pasta.

Chicken a la king; croquettes; chicken salad

Chicken Pot Pie, Chicken Quesadillas,

I use the coconut milk and you would never know - there's no "coconut flavor" once everything is cooked. I use regular flour and it turns just fine.

I make my own pot pie with leftover chicken that doesn't need canned soups either:
1 box Betty Crocker Pie crust. Make recipe for 2 crusts (top and bottom). Divide in half, roll out one, put into bottom of pie plate. Prebake until 2 minutes under minimum bake time.
I prefer to shred the chicken, but if you are pressed for time, you can dice the chicken. Toss in a bowl with frozen peas and carrots.
I make gravy. Make a flour and butter roux. Use chicken broth (homemade stock is best, but you can use a can if you don't have stock) to loosen. If you aren't using homemade stock or you need to strengthen the flavor, I prefer "Better than Bouillon" chicken flavoring. If you like it creamier, you can part chicken stock, part milk.
Pour gravy over chicken and veggies, stir until well mixed. Pour into pie shell. Put the second crust on top, piercing the shell to allow steam to escape.
Bake until upper shell is nice and golden and the filling is steaming through the slits.

One thing I have found that makes the gravy even more unhealthy, but oh, so good. Every Christmas, I make roast duck and I save the duck fat, put it into a container in the fridge. When making gravy, I use the duck fat instead of butter and it is SO good, but is probably 3x your daily allowance of fat.

I usually do the typical enchiladas, soup, chicken salad, etc. Have found many casseroles that call for mushroom soup and/or some variation but that isn't very appealing. Not even sure what I'm looking for, maybe just some inspiration!
