I have a perfectly good excuse for why my Try It Tuesday was postponed and why it ended up being made on Sunday followed by an encore presentation on Tuesday. Someone asked the other day what happens if you can’t make your Try It on Tuesday? Try for Wednesday or Saturday or whatever day works for you. We just encourage you to step outside your comfort zone and try something new.
I decided to revisit my Try It Tuesday challenge over the weekend. This time inspired by my husband, Steve, who said, “Why don’t you make quesadillas?” I’m not going to say no to that especially since it involves cheese. My immediate response was, “I think I pinned something like that.” Off I went to search my Pinterest board. Much to my chagrin, I had not pinned any so I felt the necessity to take some time to find just the right one.
After pinning a few different recipes I found one for Spicy Peanut Chicken Quesadillas by Kevin Lynch over on Closetcooking.com. We love Thai food. There is a wonderful Thai place in Bothel called Pen Thai. It is worth a trip if you ever come here for a visit. The Pen Special Fried Rice and the Chicken Satay are divine. We also love the Thai Chicken Pizza at California Pizza Kitchen, and after I read the recipe I pinned, I decided to dress it up, imitate what we love and hope for the best. Two bites in and my husband said this was so far his favorite Try It dish. Two days later he asked if we could have a Try It Tuesday Encore. Even my picky eater child loved the chicken and asked for it again.
