Krispy Kreme Sloppy Joe debuted in California over the weekend, but Krispy Kreme has nothing to do with the sandwich. The Sloppy Joe is the brainchild of a California chef known for deep-frying everything from Twinkies to Kool-Aid. 
Krispy Kreme let National Doughnut Day pass it by this year. Arch rival Dunkin Donuts grabbed all the headlines with its national rollout of the Glazed Donut Breakfast Sandwich, while Krispy Kreme was left offering the requisite free doughnut of years past. And

But if you have one or two veggie burger recipes to rely on during the grilling months, you can get your burger fix and feel good about it too.

Barbecued Chicken on the Grill

Along with hot dogs and hamburgers, barbecued chicken is about as classic as it gets when it comes time for grilling. But chicken takes longer to cook than either hot dogs or hamburgers, and loves lower cooking temperatures, so it's easy to mess up, either under-cooking, over-charring, or both. The trick to good barbecued chicken? Patience. Done right, it will take at least an hour, and even up to 2 hours. Remember that barbecue is slow and low, grilling is hot and fast. You can grill a chic

African Chicken Peanut Stew

African Chicken Peanut Stew

Like peanut butter? Chicken? Then this African chicken peanut stew is for you. Perfect for chilly weather.

You start by simmering the birds to make stock, which then becomes the base of the stew, and then you use the meat from the hens. This is a bit labor-intensive for most, so I normally use pre-cut chicken parts: legs, wings and especially thighs. This stew is just made for chic
