Heat pizzelle iron. Drop batter by teaspoonfuls onto the center of the patterns, close the lid and cook for about 30 seconds. Test the cooking time on the first one, because temperatures may vary. Remove cookies carefully from the iron and cool on wire racks.

Slow Cooker Chicken Marsala
For this crockpot chicken Marsala recipe, I use boneless chicken breast. Serve this healthy, flavorful dish over rice or potatoes to soak up all the delicious sauce! I like to serve it with rice and sautéed spinach. If you're cooking for two, you might be tempted to halve the recipe, but don't — you'll be happy to have leftovers!
Trout Meunière
Trout meunière is the lightest, freshest, most clean way to enjoy fish I know of. It's coated and pan-fried golden brown and topped with a lemony sauce. Classic, easy, and delicious.
Chicken and Black Bean Casserole
This Mexican-inspired chicken casserole with rice and beans can be made with leftover chicken or chicken breasts. I usually make it the day after we have roast chicken. The recipe calls for baking, but the ingredients can also be added to a slow cooker and cooked on Low for 7 hours. We serve this with cheese, tortilla chips, sour cream, salsa, black olives, and guacamole.
