If any of you have any simple recipes, please post. I am looking for things I can cook for Ben and the less ingredients, the greater chance that he isn't allergic to something in it. Here is a good one that is so easy and was a big hit with Ben and his dad:
1 Cup baby carrots (or chopped carrots)
1 & 1/2 C lentils, uncooked
1 & 1/2 lb frozen chicken
2 T minced garlic
3/4 t salt
3/4 t tumeric
1/2 t red pepper flakes or ground red pepper
1/2 t ground cinnamon
2 cans (14 oz) broth (chicken is recommended)
Place all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on high setting for 5 hours. Or cover and cook on high for an hour and then switch to low setting for 7 hours. Makes 4-6 servings.

That sounds really good. Almost good enough to get me to try it despite not having good experiences with lentils while pregnant. But I think I'll save it for this fall.
One super-easy thing to do with chicken is dump a can of peaches--and maybe some spices, like cloves or ginger--over it. You could cook it in the oven or crockpot, whichever was easier. If in the crockpot, you might want to drain the peaches so it's not too soupy. Then serve it over rice to soak up all the juice.
