Cassoulet is a French peasant dish from medieval times. Ours has been updated to fit modern times using chicken, a cast iron skillet instead of a cassoulet pot and shorter cooking time. This recipe is not a traditional cassoulet; it is our version. Need an easy weeknight meal, this is the perfect dish.

We are always searching for new and different ideas for cooking. Having huge chicken breast, about 1# each, stuffing sounded like a great way to fix them. Searching the frig, we found Brie and spinach, add pine nuts and cranberries and the stuffing was taking shape. The outcome was excellent especially the sauce made with stuffing liquid.

Our favorite farmers market is the Red Stick Farmers Market in downtown Baton Rouge, LA. Local fresh produce, meats, cheese, eggs, and other products are available year round. At a recent visit we purchased a chicken, bag of sweet onions, red sweet peppers along with other items. Once home we decided to use our purchases to make Chicken Salad. This salad can also be made using leftover chicken.
Enjoy! Mais C’est Bon!!
Sometimes those culinary accidents just happen when you think, “Oh, I have such and such in the frig which will go well with this.” For example, we don’t make Party Salad just to make Morning Sunburst, however, in making breakfast one morning, we remembered we had Party Salad left and incorporated it into this recipe. Now when we have left over Party Salad, we’ll remember the Morning Sunburst.
Enjoy! Mais C’est Bon!!
