Favorite Fall Fare: Bernie's chicken curry stew

Chicken Curry Soup

Chicken Curry Stew with Coconut Milk

Ingredients
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized chunks
1 medium yellow onion, chopped or sliced
1 cup peeled potatoes cut in 1-inch chunks (we also add sweet potatoes)
1 cup halved baby carrots
9 oz. package frozen lima beans (optional)
14 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 cup canned coconut milk
1 cup fat-free reduced sodium chicken broth
1 Tb. Cumin
1 Tb. Curry powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 tsp. hot sauce (such as Tabasco), or to taste
1 Tb coconut syrup

Directions
Put all ingredients in a large microwave-safe bowl and mix thoroughly. Cover tightly and microwave on high for 30-40 minutes. Serve with jasmine rice or couscous. Also works well in a crock-pot but put potatoes and sweet potatoes in accordingly so as not to turn to mush.

Halloween Safety Tips

Before your ghosts and goblins trick or treat this year, parents should keep in mind some safety tips.
  • Carry a Flashlight ~ A glow bracelet, necklace, or flashing attire also work well for visibility.
  • Plan Route in Advance ~ Trick or treat in familiar neighborhoods or areas.
  • Only Visit Lit Houses ~ Residents who do not wish to be bothered by trick or treaters often leave off their lights.
  • Accompany Your Children ~ If they are older and trick or treat without an adult, set firm rules and have them carry a cell phone.
  • Think Practical for Costumes ~ Be sure a child's mask allows full visibility and breathing.
  • Inspect All Candy ~ Never allow children to eat candy before it is inspected and throw away anything that is opened.
