13 days
Ho hum. So I made two trays of manicotti last night and a sausage marinara; all of which a resting comfortably in my freezer.
It is getting hard to find things to occupy my time :) So far today I have worked on the wording of my hypothetical 'adoption announcements'. Although I am confused about which dates to include. Do I just say born on blah date and leave out the 'into our arms' or 'ours forever' since we will get him the day he is born. I think the other stuff would be more relevant if we wait and send something out after finalization. Any thoughts on this one???
I have also started working on my FMLA paperwork for work. It seems relatively straight forward, so I should finish those tonight.
Beth was so kind as to ask for the recipes to some of the yummy dishes I was making for the freezer so I thought I would indulge and include some of them here:
Chicken Spectacular
3 cups cooked, diced chicken
1 package Uncle Ben's Wild and White Rice, cooked
1 can cream of celery soup
1 med. size jar sliced pimiento
1 med. onion, chopped
1 can French-style green beans, drained
1 cup mayonnaise
1 can water chestnuts, diced
salt & pepper to taste
grated cheddar cheese
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients (except cheese) together then pour into buttered 3-quart casserole. Spread grated cheese over top. Bake about 25 to 30 minutes.Chicken and green bean casserole serves 8.
Chicken Tetrazzini
12 oz. medium egg noodles, cooked and drained
4 chicken breasts, boiled, deboned, chopped
8 oz can sliced mushrooms, drained and sauteed with butter or margarine
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 pint sour cream
parmesan cheese
Mix all ingredients, except cheese, together. Pour into 2 casserole dishes. Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top. Bake at 350 degrees until bubbly.(Time varies by type ofdish used and whether casserole has been frozen or refrigerated.) It generally takesabout 45 min. to bake. Note: I like to use low fat sour cream and reduced fat cream ofchicken soup when I make this. I also preferto use fresh mushrooms which I saute in a small amount of margarine.
