@blackbird: okay cool! So you pre cook it a bit.
-
@blackbird: Do you have a recipe for the potato lemon chicken casserole? Is that all one dish or are the potatoes separate?
-
@IRunForFun: http://www.gimmesomeoven.com/easy-lemon-chicken-potato-casserole-recipe/
I even made condensed chicken soup to go with it but you could totally use canned! We are having it tomorrow (with a salad) so I can't speak to it yet.
-
@blackbird: Yum, thanks!
-
@blackbird: @blackbird: I've been doing half sausage or beef and half pepperoni, plus a bell pepper. It's very pizza-y that way!
-
@blackbird: I'm dying to know how this turned out!
-
@lady grey: It's nothing special, and I don't really have a recipe...I bought some spinach chicken sausages from my local store (store brand), and I'm probably just going to toss them in a roasting pan with diced sweet potatoes, apples, garlic, and some sort of seasonings.
-
@IRunForFun: @gotkimchi: The chicken dish was pretty basic, nothing special. I liked the pops of lemon. I definitely didn't salt it enough, but that's on me. And mine wasn't very creamy. It was just a simple/easy/basic meal. It went nicely with a spinach salad, though!
-
I am in a major rut this week, need to get back on it:
Sunday: salmon with mustard sauce
Monday: pasta with ricotta
Tuesday: cornish hens, vegetables, baked potato
Wedneday: tilapia, with what I don't know, maybe that orange salsa!!!
