One of the perks of being a friend of, or related to, a food blogger, is random food deliveries. I try to keep my sister’s freezer stocked with comfort foods, but have been neglecting her a bit recently. So when I saw this recipe for Chicken and Brisket Brunswick Stew, it seemed right up her alley and I knew I had to make it for her.
I adapted the recipe for what I could find/what I had on hand, but the general gist is still there.
My sister doesn’t live in Philly, so I need to pack her goodies up in freezer-friendly containers to give her when I see her. Zyliss recently sent me a 10 piece fresh plastic food storage container set, which is perfect for freezable foods.
The containers are 100% leak proof and airtight, and are freezer, dishwasher, and microwave safe.
Zyliss was kind enough to send a second set my way to giveaway! More details at the end of the post.
