Lettuce Wraps
I LOVE lettuce wraps! It’s true. Anytime they’re an option I get them because they’re just fresh and yummy. Last night I made some that I thought were delicious. I had the left overs for lunch today and it was still delicious! So, try some tonight. You can find the recipe here: restaurantrecipesbook.com I only made the chicken satay and peanut sauce....
Read MoreChicken Cordon Bleu…oh so cheesy!
I don’t know about any of you, but I LOVE chicken cordon bleu. I’ve never made it myself until about a month ago. I didn’t have a recipe because I figure there’s not much to it…right? heehee. So, I made it up and I’m sure Jon was nervous, but he loves me so he ate it. AND he loved it! So here’s what I did. BTW, I’m not very specific. I really think every recipe has room for doing whatever you want with it. This will definitely be one of them. I’ll give you the ingredients, but I’m not going to say how much I used because I have no clue. Enjoy!

Read MoreFried Chicken!!
I am currently on my “summer” break from my babies and I miss work so much. With that said I am unemployed for three months so money is going to be a little tight. Jon and I have been trying to go the last two weeks without spending money. So I’ve had to come up with some crazy dinner ideas. One night I made a stir fry with frozen vegetables, ramen, onions and garlic. I knew as I was creating it that he would eat it, but he wouldn’t really enjoy it. When he got home I gave him the option to eat it or make his own dinner. He made his own dinner. ANYHOW, when I made this chicken I was hoping it wouldn’t be a bomb like the stir fry. And it wasn’t thank goodness! It actually turned out to be DELICIOUS!! I totally redeemed...
Read MoreWhat’s for dinner? Chicken Parmesan!
I was going to make chicken fajita’s for dinner, but when I looked in the fridge I realized I had no cheese and no sour cream. A lot of people don’t like all that in their fajita’s but I do! Long story short…I was in a pickle. It was 5:30 and I still didn’t know what to have for dinner. So, I looked in my freezer and found that I had some breaded chicken that I had cooked in the past and froze. I then decided we were eating Chicken Parmesan. It also helped that I found a killer easy and good breadstick recipe online last night. But I’ll share that recipe tomorrow. I hope you try this! Enjoy! Chicken Parmesan 4 boneless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2 inch thickness 1 egg 1/2 cup milk seasoned bread crumbs 2 to 3...
