From Pinterest to Real Life – XVII

My Pinterest boards have been filling up lately and I haven’t been bringing enough pins to real life (that will be changing in 2013…stay tuned for why 😉 )  But I did recently have the chance to make a couple of yummy dishes!

If you’re looking for a quick and easy appetizer for New Year’s Eve I would highly recommend these Spinach Feta Rolls.  One of the great things about these rolls is that you can mix up the filling ahead of time so that when it’s time to party all you have to do is fill the rolls and pop them in the oven!

I don’t know about your house, but for me the holidays are a busy time of year!  So anytime I can find a new recipe that I can make in the crock pot I’m always game to try it out! And this Crock Pot Santa Fe Chicken was definitely worth trying 🙂  I loved the addition of the black beans and the recipe worked despite the fact that I only chopped the chicken instead of taking the extra time to shred it all the way!
