What's For Dinner?

[Marilyn. 340]

I made this last night for din din... they were really good... kind of crispy on the outside and nice and juicy in the inside... Served it with some Kraft Dinner mac&cheese and some steamed carrots... mmm, what a yummy meal..

Easy Mustard Chicken

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 4 pieces

1/4 cup French's mustard

1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs

salt and pepper

Dry Chicken on a paper towel. Paint the chicken on both side with mustard. Roll in the bread crumbs that have been seasoned with salt& pepper. Gently shake off surplus crumbs. Place on sprayed baking sheet. Bake for 20 min in 400F degrees oven.

*instead of salt I used seasoning salt and I also added some garlic powder... oh and i used chicken tenders... so instead of 1/2 cup bread crumbs I used about 1 cup of bread crumbs....

I got home late from my training yesterday, so I just had a salad. With lovely toasted sesame stick sprinkles and Vadalia onion dressing.

Think tonight I'll warm up some leftover chicken. We had some more corn on the cob and potato casserole to finish up.

Gene will be baching it next week when I'm in Saskatoon. I'm trying to decide if he's going to miss ME more than my cooking???

Last night we had roasted garlic honey dijon chicken with a black bean and corn salsa, and steamed broccoli and cauliflower with fresh garlic butter. It was YUMMY, and I sure did love it when he came home from work and raved about how good it smelled in here! After eating nothing but take out and microwave dinners he was happy to have real food and went on about how gourmet it was!

Now I've got tons of leftover chicken, and I'm thinking I might turn that black bean and corn salsa into a chicken chili. Maybe.

Wow. Does that ever sound yummy.

Well, last night we ended up eating out. Hubby came home and scooped me out of the kitchen and took us to the nail salon for a mani/pedi. Then we went to the Fresh Market (my favourite store ) where I loaded up on meats and specialty items (cause we live 45 mins from there), and then we went on to Backyard Burger. I had an AWESOME evening.

Tonight we are having fresh Norwegian salmon (Fresh Market) with green beans and asparagus and some sort of rice.... maybe risotto. I need to use up the veg tonight because he is at a banquet tomorrow (so no cooking for me) and then we leave for NC early Friday morning.

^^^^ now this sounds like a fun evening!!

Well when Mike got home from the Social Security office, I had decided we would head over to Applebees in Sanford, we both like Applebees - soooo we google the address and head out! We neglected to put the street number in, so we did have a really nice drive through Sylvan Lake, a community near here, beautiful houses, brand new equestrian centre etc. - after much driving we didn't find Applebees but we did find Cracker Barrel, so that is where we ended up eating.

I ordered grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, coleslaw and turnip greens (because everyone offers turnip greens and I wanted to check it out basically).

Hmm, well, I didn't know it had ham in it (don't get me wrong, I like ham) but my stomach wasn't feeling all that good so I didn't even try them, Mike did and he said I had made a good choice in not trying it!

Didn't like the chicken either - I think it had some kind of mushroom sauce on it (I don't eat mushrooms).

Anyway, by the time we got home Mike's was feeling not so good either. Need to get used to the food here.

Hey! You were just down the street from me! Well, not really, but close. Kinda.

Blech. The turnip greens at CB are horrible. Actually, the only time I like CB is for breffrus. And caramel corn. Their pecan pancakes are good. And so is their smoked ham. But I mainly just like the caramel corn.

I think we're going out for dinner tonight. We'll probably go to the Big Bun which is a great little drive thru burger place here! YUM! Soon to be hubby doesn't want to eat chicken three meals in a row. I don't really blame him, but I could eat chicken every day and be just fine with it. I just suppose this means I'm going to have to get uber creative now aren't I? It's not just me to cook for anymore!

I will go with Mel to his class tonight- I have never seen him teach. On the way back we will stop somewhere to eat.

Tomorrow I am going to make the Easy Mustard Chicken recipe that Marilyn posted.

for the mustard part of the recipe I didn't really measure out the mustard I just brushed it on... put a lot on but don't overdue it.... I was reading a review on the recipe on the site where I found it and this one lady said she totally drenched the chicken in mustard and then complained that the chicken wasn't crispy enough
