Italian Chicken Breasts Over Angel Hair Pasta


Larry, Logan and I all really liked the chicken and pasta dish. It was super easy and light! I had some chicken strips in the freezer, so I thawed those to use. I marinated them for about an hour before cooking. I just ended up dumping the marinated chicken strips and dressing into a large skillet and sauteing them on the stove top. This worked great. I'm sure the oven would work equally as well.

Both guys were crazy about the Spinach Caesar Salad, too. M.C. liked the dressing, but she isn't crazy about spinach, so this salad wasn't her favorite. I did make the little homemade dressing, adding just a bit of anchovy paste. This gives the dressing just a tiny zip that makes it extra good! You can find anchovy paste in the grocery near the canned tuna and salmon. (No one carries it in Pontotoc, but you can get it at Kroger in Tupelo.)

Well, I still didn't get to make Mub's
Green Onion, Cheese, and Sour Cream Drop Biscuits, as we had two loaves of bread leftover from Macaroni Grill from the week-end. It's feast or famine with the bread around here lately!! I'm going to keep adding these biscuits to my menu until I get to make them!!

Georgia Cornbread Cake

I clipped this recipe several years ago from American Profile, which is a small magazine insert that come with our local newspaper, The Pontotoc Progress. It is yummy, yummy, yummy!  I love the story that accompanied the recipe and was delighted when a Google searched turned up the same article on the web! Larry took this to work, and he said it was a huge hit with everyone! Enjoy! Georgia Cornbread Cake Georgia Cornbread Cake   Recipe of Stella T. Thompson from American Profile "I am 86 years old and have been cooking since I was 9. This recipe has been in my family for many years.

Dough Burgers

  Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant!  When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s
