Chicken "Pillows"

Chicken "Pillows"
-----------------

4 chicken breasts
2 Tbsp. butter or margarine
1/2 medium onion
2 stalks celery
1 green pepper
8 oz. cream cheese
2 pkg. Crescent Rolls
bread crumbs (or stuffing mix crushed)
1 cube butter or margarine (melted)

Cook chicken (any method), dice (I shreaded mine). Saute till soft: 2 tbsp. butter, onion, celery and green pepper. Add and mix well: cream cheese and chicken. Unroll crescent rolls leaving two rolls together so you have a rectangle. Put a large spoonful or two of the chicken mixture into the crescent rolls. Fold over and pinch ends together to seal. Dip the "pillow" into melted butter and then roll into bread crumbs. Bake at 350 for about 18 min.

Cool completely then freeze.

Thaw completely. Reheat in oven 350 for 10-15 minutes or until completely warmed through. Serve with mashed potatoes and gravy!

Thanks and Sorry!

Thank you all for waiting.  I really am sorry!  I do owe you all a nice treat.  The meals look yummy!  I am excited to eat them.

SORRY!

Erin brought it to my attention, but it's only 6 meals to make (I was counting myself as I counted through the RSVP list.)

So make 6 meals, 7 if you want one for yourself.

Thanks Erin!

Eva

Mexican Soup & Salsa

My computer is finally up and running. Anyways, here are the recipes to the Soup and Salsa I made! Enjoy!

YUMMY MEXICAN SOUP

2 cans Rotel Tomatoes OR Diced Tomatoes (less spicy)
1 can Black Beans
1 can Chicken Broth
1 Can Corn
1 Large can chicken with Rice Soup
1 Can Ranch Style Beans
Cilantro
2-3 Chicken Breasts – marinated in Italian dressing (optional) – stir fried/or boiled – added last

Thaw - Heat and Serve! This is one of my favorite soups!


EASY SALSA - I love Salsa, a big weakness of mine!

1 (28 oz) can of diced tomatoes
1-2 jalapenos, seeded
½ medium onion
½ bunch chopped cilantro
¾ tsp. salt
¾ tsp. sugar
¼ tsp. pepper
¼ tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. ground cumin
2-3 drops liquid smoke (optional)

Put everything in a blender and mix.
Taste and adjust as needed.

Note: I used 1 ½ jalapenos and it gives a kick, but not too hot. This salsa is great with chips. We buy the Tia Rosa Mega Thin chips.

Salsa - Thaw and serve!!!
