Happy Monday!!! This week we are celebrating all things seafood, one of my favorite weeks!! Seafood week always brings back memories of the beach. There is nothing more relaxing than the sound of the waves  or an amazing sunrise/sunset on the beach. Let's not forget about collecting seashells in the morning before sunrise or catching crabs after sunset which brings us to today's  recipe....Spicy Crab Salad.  This crab salad recipe is so delicious and amazing it lasted all of one day. You can serve it on a bed of lettuce, on a toasted roll, on some crackers or just by itself! This salad takes about 10 minutes to prepare and is so easy, even my husband who can't boil water can make it. 😃 You should be able to get about 4 servings depending on your serving size..... Spicy Crab Salad Ingredients 1 lb crab - either imitation or lump - chopped 1 tbsp Italian dressing 1 tbsp Old Bay seasoning - use less if you prefer 1/2 cup mayo 2 stalks celery - finely diced 1/2 small

I'm back!!! Happy Monday to all!! 😊Took some time off to practice new recipes with my new chef style slide in!!! Talk about turning up the heat...low is the new medium and medium is the new high and high is the new singe your eyebrows!! So since I'm turning up the heat ..I thought I'd start off with a Spicy Chick-fil-A chicken breast copy cat recipe I found. The critics, my husband, son and grandson, love it and said it's better than the real thing! I have experimented with both chicken thighs and chicken breasts with this recipe and I much prefer the thighs, but you can use whichever you like. I also made it a little more carb friendly by using almond flour in place of the regular flour.  Spicy Chick-fil-A Ingredients: 2 large chicken breasts cut in half length wise 1/2 cup pickle juice mixed with 1/2 cup water 2 cups flour or almond flour 1/3 cup powdered sugar 3 tsp paprika 2 tbs black pepper 2 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper 1 1/2 tsp chili powder 1 tsp
