This recipe came to me by way of a friend.? I’ll post it as she sent with my changes added. nonstick cooking spray 1 egg white 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (out of all-purpose, used self-rising) 1/4 cup cornmeal (used self-rising) 1/4 cup panko (Japanese-style breadcrumbs) (used about 1/2 cup) 1 tsp. salt-free Cajun seasoning (didn’t have Cajun so I used Old Bay) 1 lb. catfish fillets, halved (4 pieces) (don’t like Catfish so I used Talapia) Preheat oven to 450 degrees.? Spray the surface of a flat, non-stick baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.? (You may ask why spray a non-stick? pan with non-stick spray – it acts like oil in the pan.? You can also get this effect by spraying the meat while cooking).? In a shallow bowl beat egg white until it forms soft peaks.? Place flour on a sheet of wax paper.? On another sheet combine cornmeal, panko and seasoning.? Dip fish in? the flour and shake off excess.? Dip in the egg white.? Roll in the cornmeal mixture.? Place on baking pan.? Spray the tops

Cheddar Chicken Broccoli Soup

MAC — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 05:02:00 +0000

This soup comes out a little thick but oh so good.? I decided to use the stuffing mix instead of crackers giving it just a little more of that heart warming sage taste.? This is a great recipe to have on hand using leftover turkey in place of the chicken.?Find my recipe on Martha’s Recipe Cabinet and my rating for Bear Creek Soup Mix by going to The Good, The Bad, The Maybe .

Chicken Mozzarella

MAC — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 23:12:00 +0000

I’m running a little behind in my posts but good things are usually worth waiting for and this dish is one of the good ones.? Foodbuzz and Tastemakers along with Newman’s Own sent me a couple of sauces to try with the hopes of my coming up with a recipe that is tasty, easy, family friendly and can be prepared within 30 minutes.? With my Chicken Mozzarella I nailed all of these plus.? Not only is this dish simple to make it’s a dish that can be prepared as individual servings cooking all at one time or as needed making it the perfect dish for a busy schedule family.? So here is all you do to make this tasty little dish. To make a serving for 4: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.? Cook 1/2 lb.? spaghetti according to package directions. Divide spaghetti into 4 individual dishes that are oven safe. Place 1 pre-cooked, breaded chicken breasts over top of spaghetti. Divide 1 jar of Newman’s Own pasta sauce over the chicken breasts making sure to cover the spaghetti. Top with shredded Mozzarella cheese. Bake 20-25 minutes or until cheese has melted and the dish is piping hot. Comments:? I used the Tomato & Basil Bombolina Pasta Sauce. When I make up a new dish and serve it to some of my lucky food testers, I tell them very little about the dish.? All 3 of my food testers that tried this dish remarked about it’s “clean” taste.? One thought it may have a touch of lemon added another wanted to know if I added a tiny bit of mint.? It was the Basil they were tasting and they all 3 loved it.? For my chicken I used a pre-cooked, all white meat product to cut down time.? When baking the assembled dish, watch your cheese.? You want

This is Puff last Christmas as he opened his presents. I want to say that I’m sorry to those who follow my site but Monday I had to put down my best friend.? Puff had been there for me every day of his almost 14 years.? Greeting me when I came in and loving me no matter what.? He was there as my nurse when I had back surgery and any time in between that I simply didn’t feel good.? If you’re an animal lover, you’ll understand what I’m going through.? If you aren’t, you’re missing out on some of the best non-conditional love you’ll ever have.

Apple Walnut Cake

MAC — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 01:40:00 +0000

Becky from Baking and Cooking, A Tale of Two Loves posted her recipe for Apple Walnut Cake.? I was so impressed with it that I had to give it a try while making just a few changes of my own. I eliminated the use of baking soda and used self rising flour.? I added buttermilk and water.? I also mixed dry and wet ingredients together.? The icing for this was what I really wanted to try.? Yes I made a change there too but not with the ingredients.? I changed the timing of adding the soda.? All-in-all, whether you do it my way or Becky’s way, this is a wonderful cake.? My testers have requested that I make it again.? See my full recipe by going to Martha’s Recipe Cabinet .?
