		<description>COLA CHICKEN 
(my preference…wings or ribs)

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 cup catsup
1 12oz. can cola (pepsi, coke, etc.)

Put chicken in a non-stick pan.
Mix together catsup and cola, pour over chicken.
Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and cook 45 minutes.
(turning chicken a few times, while cooking...to prevent from sticking to pan)
Uncover, turn up the heat and continue to cook until the sauce
becomes thick and adheres to the chicken.
It turns into the most incredible BBQ sauce. Yummmm!

You can double the recipe and use more pieces of
chicken....wings...would be ideal...add some hot sauce....presto &quot;Hot Wings&quot;!   

I have used Ribs, just as good.



CRUNCHY ONION CHICKEN

1 1/3 cups French’s Original French Fried Onions
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 egg, beaten
LIGHTLY CRUSH:
Onions in a plastic bag.
DIP:
Chicken in egg (put egg in plastic bag)
COVER:
With onion crumbs, press firmly to adhere to chicken.
BAKE:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place chicken on lightly greased baking pan.
Sprinkle with additional onion crumbs, if desired.
Bake for 20 minutes or until no longer pink in center.

Mushroom Chicken
4 boneless/skinless chicken breast (or any pieces you like)
1 can cream of mushroom soup.
1 can water
Place chicken in crock pot (or sauce pan for stove top cooking)
mix soup &amp; 1 can of water together
pour over chicken
cook on medium heat until boiling then reduce heat and cook until chicken is really tender &amp; falling apart.
Serve over noodles or rice or dressing....or??? 

CHILLI DOG CASSEROLE 
1 pkg. (8) hot dog buns 
1 pkg. (8) hot dogs (use more if you like) 
1 can Chilli (15 oz. without beans, use more if you want) 
1 small onion (chopped) 
2 cups shredded cheese 
mustard 
DIRECTIONS: Pre-heat oven 350 degrees 
In a 9&quot; x 13&quot; baking pan, break up hot dog buns (bite size) and spread in pan. 
Cut up hot dogs (about 1/2&quot; size) spread over buns. 
Spoon/spred chilli over hot dog/buns. 
Sprinkle onions over all. 
Squirt mustard over entire mixture (don&#039;t spread...just make a few lines both ways across mixture) 
Cover with shredded cheese. 
Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly. 
(Hint: If using extra hot dogs &amp; chilli, don&#039;t add extra buns.)

&quot;Corny Beanie Weenies.&quot; 
Mix one baked beans  (14-16 ounces with brown sugar, onion, and bacon). 
A package of Weiners (all sliced up).
A can of whole kernel corn (drained)
Heat up these three ingredients, and serve.
Hint:
1.)Might put ingredients in a casserole dish and top with corn muffin mix.
2.)Substitute a pound of cooked to…?? ground beef….gr.turkey…smkd. sausage…rename?

POT ROAST
Your choice of beef (to fit crock-pot)
1 pkg. dry Ranch dressing mix
1 pkg. dry Italian dressing mix
1 pkg. dry Brown Gravy mix
1 cup water
Put beef in pot.
Mix together all the dry mixes….then add water …pour over meat and cover &amp; cook on high 4-6 hours.
Until meat is tender.
The first time I mad it I didn’t have the Italian Dressing mix….so I added a pkg. of Onion Soup Mix….I have to say I liked that better.
If you use more water you might want to add more Brown Gravy mix….to make a thicker sauce. Was gonna add potatoes and carrots…but never got around to it.

E-Z Potato Soup
(2 – 4 servings)

1 (14 ½ oz.) can of diced potatoes
1 can of cream of celery soup
¼ cup ‘real’ bacon bits (more if you like)
milk (use soup can to measure milk)
¼ - ½ stick of margarine (optional)

Pour potatoes – liquid an all into medium sauce pan.
Pour celery soup into a bowl and add a soup can full of milk and mix together, pour over potatoes and stir.
Stir in bacon bits cook over medium heat until hot, turn off stove add margarine and stir until melted, serve,

We were given a quart of Half &amp; Half and I used some of this in my soup.  You could use evaporated milk, too. Or some Fat Free milk.  Your preference.

I did not add any margarine. (Second time I made it…I added ½ stick of margine)

I suppose if you want to add a little “BAM” to it, add some hot sauce.

Maybe sprinkle with some grated cheese to serve.

Kreamy Kool-Aid Pie
 1-(6 g) package un sweetened Kool-Aid powdered drink mix
1-(14 oz.)can sweetened condensed milk
1-(8 oz)container Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed.
1-(9 inch) Graham Cracker Pie Crust (or Cookie crust)
Cool Whip for top (optional) 

1. In a medium bowl mix Kool-Aid and condensed milk, thoroughly.
2. Fold in Cool Whip.
4. If desired, spread more Cool Whip on top.
5. Chill for a minimum of 4 hours.
I’ve used: Strawberry…Cherry…Lemon-lime (Key-Lime Pie)….Lemonade (Lemon Pie…might add some yellow food coloring for a more lemony look.)

E-Z Cake Recipes
NO EGGS,NO OIL ,NO WATER .......JUST SODA AND MIX.
CHOCOLATE CAKE MIX.......CHERRY SODA (BLACK FOREST)
ORANGE CAKE MIX….ORANGE SODA 
PINEAPPLE MIX….PINEAPPLE SODA 
SPICE MIX…..ROOT BEER SODA 
POUR CAKE MIX IN BOWL
ADD SODA USE LOAF CAKE PAN 
 BAKE 350 DEGREES AS BOX SAYS.</description>

		<description>Get chicken Brest cut into strips, season salt and pepper.  Dip in beaten egg, cover in Italian style bread crumbs.  Put some olive oil or any type of oil in a fry pan and brown.  Then place in the oven for 20-30 min.  Or skip the whole fry thing and just bake in the oven for 40 min.  Kids love this one.  Good luck.

		<description>make up tuna pasta bake or spaghetti cooked fry some garlic through in the tuna then add pasta mix it well very quick and nice as a change. 
Depending on veg likes and dislikes you can also fry some onion, peppers and mushrooms and mix it through.
Omelette&#039;s are great, mix them with a lot of different things such as peppers red onion and cheese.
Baked potatoes only take about 7 minutes in a microwave, for fillings have cheese mixed with onion and mayonnaise, or tuna, or beans.
do a stir fry use a mix of chicken, mushrooms bamboo shoots and other vegs you can buy ready mixed packs in the supermarket.</description>
