Farfalle Pasta with Spinach, Mushrooms, and Caramelized Onions

Ingredients Caramelized onions 1 tablespoon olive oil 3 yellow onions , large, sliced 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar Creamy pasta sauce 1 tablespoon olive oil 10 oz mushrooms , sliced (I used button mushrooms) 6 oz spinach 1 cup half-and-half 1 cup Parmesan cheese , shredded 1/4 teaspoon salt Pasta 8 oz farfalle pasta Instructions How to caramelize onions: Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil on medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add sliced onions and cook on high heat for about 10 minutes, constantly stirring with the spatula. The onions should start to brown, but without burning.

Chicken Burrito Bowls

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 to 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, chicken thighs, or a mix
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth, plus more as needed
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup uncooked brown rice
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, sour cream, diced avocado, salsa, hot sauce, diced green onions, shredded lettuce


INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Combine the chicken, diced tomatoes and their juices, chicken broth, chili powder, salt, and cumin in a 2 1/2- to 3 1/2-quart slow cooker. Make sure the chicken is covered with liquid, adding additional broth as needed. Cover and cook on the LOW setting for 3 to 4 hours.
  2. Uncover and stir in the beans, rice, and corn. Cover and continue cooking on the LOW setting for 3 to 4 hours more. Check the rice periodically in the last hour of cooking, stirring once or twice to make sure the rice cooks evenly and adding more chicken broth if the mixture seems dry. Cooking is done when the rice is tender — if the rice is done but there is still liquid left in the slow cooker, uncover and cook on the HIGH setting to let the liquid evaporate.
  3. Use 2 forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. You can do this either in the slow cooker itself and then mix it into the rice, or you can transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board if you prefer to keep it separate. Taste and stir in more salt or other seasonings as needed. Serve burrito bowls with a selection of toppings.
