Chicken Hurry

This is the recipe I just used for a recipe swap- the photo on the left is of the 6x6" scrapbook pages I made featuring this recipe. This is an easy supper. I usually serve it with rice and a green veggie.

Chicken Hurry:

1-2 lbs chicken pieces (I usually use around 1lb of tenders.)
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 envelope onion soup mix

Place chicken pieces in a 9x13 casserole dish. Combine remaining ingredients and pour sauce over chicken. Cover tightly with foil and bake for one hour.

Bacon Biscuit Puffs

These always go over well at parties. I served them yesterday at my Stampin' Up party and had several requests for the recipe, so I thought I'd share it here.

BACON BISCUIT PUFFS

*You will need mini muffin pans.

1-2 tubes flaky layers biscuits

2 cups shredded swiss cheese

1/2 cup mayo (I always use fat-free.)

2 TBSP sugar

5 drops hot sauce (I use whatever's on hand- buffalo sauce, red hot sauce, etc.)

8 slices cooked, crumbled bacon (I use precooked bacon crumbles.)

1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped onion (I have used both yellow and green onions, either one works.)

1/2 TBSP garlic powder

Spray mini muffin pans with cooking spray. Peel the biscuit layers apart- I usually get two or three from each biscuit. Place each biscuit piece in a muffin pan and gently press down the center. Combine remaining ingredients to make filling. Place a spoonfull of filling into the center of each biscuit. Bake at 375 for 8-11 minutes, or until biscuits are golden. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Note: I usually have more biscuits and filling than will fit into my two mini muffin pans. We like to save these, and make full-sized biscuit versions the next morning for breakfast. :)

Menu Plan Monday~ on Tuesday! ;)

Good grief, I wrote my menu plan and then forgot to post it in time for Menu Plan Monday yesterday! Anyways, here's the plan for this week:

SUNDAY: buffalo wings (chicken nuggets for kids) & steak fries

MONDAY: beef meximelts, stewed tomatoes, sweet corn cake

TUESDAY: sausage melts, scalloped potatoes, steamed squash blend

Edited Tuesday to add: I'm really hungry for homemade stromboli, so we'll see what I actually wind up making tonight, LOL! :)

WEDNESDAY: *New Recipe* Crockpot Scalloped Potatoes and Ham, peas (Still haven't tried this one- maybe this week we'll finally get to it!)

THURSDAY: *New Recipe* Crockpot Onion-Mushroom Chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans

FRIDAY: to be determined! Something in the crockpot while I'm at work, most likely.

SATURDAY: After an afternoon of munching on appetizers during my stamping party (recipes/plan for the party will be posted later this week) we'll probably just have sandwiches or something for supper.
