Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Honey Sesame Chicken Noodles

Well....it was one of those nights when I knew I'd be cooking a couple of different things. My Chinese food desire got the better of me so I whipped this up real quick. But I had to grill IT Guy a steak because I knew there was no way he'd touch what I made for myself. And too bad for him because this was GOOD! Quick and easy...and to make it even easier, you could buy pre-grilled chicken at the grocery store if you're not in the mood to cook your own. Either way you do it...this is pretty stinkin' tasty!!

Honey Sesame Chicken Noodles

4 chicken breasts ~ sliced
