Hubby and I are enjoying a yummy Sushi  Night! We never get a date night so we make a nice date atmosphere in our home. We have been together for 10 years so we have to reinvent date in our home since we are parents and don't have the luxury of an on call babysitter. Our parents live about 2 hours away on both sides so when we travel home we get the luxry of your sets of grandparents eager to get time with their baby grand boy :) he just turned 6 but will always be there baby mine too (shhh don't tell hubby that lol) . Date night consists of our favorite movie and things to eat, and time to catch up with each other. Snuggle time is always fun too if I can stay awake!  We both Adore sushi  so we got a variety tonight. We enjoyed it with spicy sauce, soy sauce, and Wasabai.  It was delicious but my favorite part is spending one and one time with my husband. It's nice not to talk about who is going to cook tonight or who is going to do the dishes :) so my advice to other couples is schedule some time with ur love one it's very important and it's a great treat for your both!

Thank You Rachel Cox!!
 
6-8 frozen chicken breasts
2 cans of coconut milk (I find it on the Asian aisle at Walmart)
1 cup of lime juice
1 can of tomato sauce (15 ounce size can)
1/4 cup of curry powder
1 tablespoon of salt
1 teaspoon of tumeric
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon cinnamon 

I am not adding veggies in this curry, but you certainly can.  I love curry dishes that add potatoes, spinach, onion, water chestnuts, or zucchini.  Feel free to make this dish your own.  I am just keeping it simple and will serve it over a nice yellow rice and salad.  

This is one of those just throw all the ingredients in the crock and let cook for 7-8 hours on low.  If you add veggies, then add some chicken broth to make sure you have enough liquid in the pot to generously cover everything.
