Simple Salad

So as I posted last week, there has been a significant lack of nutrients in our Tasty Tuesday adventures, so what better than SALAD to make everyone feel better (and less guilty about eating desert)!

But you see, this is not just a boring salad, with just grass and other colorful things that mostly farm animals consume. It had something more to our liking. Something with a kick... Buffalo Chicken! woot woot

Sounds like a good way to enjoy some tasty greens and leave those extra inches off the old waist.

BUT

Of course we had to be kinda bad, we made cheddar biscuits from scratch to go on the side.
Dip them in some honey butter (which, I might add, is the greatest creation on this planet) and it's 10x better.

Now I know that this is a lot more simple than the normal Tuesday evening, but this week at our church (Calvary Chapel) we held our mid-week services on Tuesday due to a special visit from Chuck Smith.

A Little History:

In 1965, Pastor Chuck Smith began his ministry at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. Only twenty-five people attended. What began as a small chapel has now grown into a church that seats over 2000 and is filled almost nightly. From the beginning, Pastor Chuck welcomed all, young and old, without judgment, placing his emphasis on the teaching of the Word of God. His simple, yet sound, biblical approach draws 25,000 people weekly.
With a sincere concern for the lost, Pastor Chuck made room in his heart and his home for a generation of hippies and surfers; generating a movement of the Holy Spirit that spread from the West Coast to the East Coast, bringing thousands of young people to Jesus Christ. Included among this generation of new believers were Greg Laurie, Mike MacIntosh, Raul Ries, and Skip Heitzig, as well as hundreds of others who now have ministries of their own.
Although we got to hear the band that was greatly associated with the Calvary Chapel movement, I (along with others) were disappointed that Pastor Chuck didn't actually teach :( But, it was a pretty cool experience altogether, and for anyone interested, there are podcasts out there of teachings from Pastor Chuck.
That is all for this week though. I'm sure we will have more "complex" dishes on the menu for next week. But until then...
Bon Appetit
