Chicken Salad

-

This is super easy and can be used in so many different ways!

I like it:
 on crackers as an appetizer
on top of a lettuce salad
in pita pockets
on whole wheat toast
wrapped in plain lettuce leaves, etc.

Use your imagination and eat it the way you like it. I'm sure you will enjoy it!

1 lb. cooked cut up chicken
2/3 cup celery, finely diced
1 cup Miracle Whip
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon black pepper

Makes approximately 3 cups.

 Today I chose to eat it with a Whole Wheat Pita Pocket and some cut up spinach, lettuce, and tomatoes. It sure was tasty for a Monday morning brunch!

I won't be posting any more recipes this week because I plan to go visit my family in Ohio!! There's two new babies out there for me to cuddle and a whole family for me to catch up on. We haven't been out there since August 2010 so there will be quite a bit to catch up on. My wonderful husband and children will stay here to keep the fires burning till I return. My Mother-in-law will be traveling with me, she has a sister living in the same area as my family. So...if y'all think of us Tuesday and Friday pray a prayer of safety for us!

See you all next week! ~ Martha ☺

    Oh how wonderful! I am so glad you get to go see those new babies. Please give your mother, Ann and Miriam a BIG hug from me (and Grace).

    I made your bbq chicken recipe last weekend and it was big hit. We'll be praying for safety and peace while you travel. Lisa~

Creamy Finger Jello

-
Image
I was asked to bring finger Jello to serve with a hot lunch us room Mom's were serving to Serena's classroom at school. Jello isn't something I typically serve,but I have about 2 or 3 recipes using Jello that I make about once in a blue moon. One reason I make this one is because it isn't a typical, plain finger Jello. But also because it looks like a two step process when it really isn't. Everything is mixed as one and it separates as it sets. And the cream adds a good flavor. 2 large boxes Jello 4 packages plain gelatin 4½ cups boiling water ¼ cup cold water 1 cup heavy cream Combine the Jello and gelatin and whisk together. Add the boiling water and whisk until Jello is dissolved. Add the remaining ingredients and stir. Pour into a lightly greased (this helps to remove from the pan in a cleaner cut, spray the pan then wipe it down with a paper towel) glass 9 X 13 pan. Cover and chill till firm. Cut into desired shapes or squares and serve.

Seasoned Pretzels

These pretzels have been around the block and back again, but they  really are  such an easy snack and they go well as an appetizer too. They are simple and require no baking which in my opinion is a definite plus! 18 ounces pretzel twists ½ cup olive oil 1 envelope original Hidden Valley Ranch Mix 1 teaspoon dill weed ½ teaspoon garlic powder Pour pretzels into a large bowl. In a smaller bowl combine oil and seasonings and mix well with a whisk. Pour over pretzels and toss to coat. Allow to rest at room temperature, stirring every now and then to coat again, until oil and seasonings are gone from the bottom over the bowl. Pretzels are ready to serve when they look dry again. Be Blessed!

Rice Krispy Rollups

Here is another chocolate and peanut butter concoction that is totally irresistible and so easy to make. I sometimes make these instead of cookies if  I'm not in the baking mood. The only trouble is they never last long. Here's what you'll need: ¼ cup butter, melted 10½ ounces mini marshmallows 5½ cups Rice Krispies 1½ cups milk chocolate chips ½ cup peanut butter Melt butter in a 6 quart kettle, add marshmallows. Melt completely over low heat. Add the Rice Krispies. Mix well. Spread evenly into a greased 10½ x 15½ baking sheet. In a microwave safe bowl combine chocolate chips and peanut butter.  Melt at 1 minute intervals until completely melted, stirring after each minute. Spread on top of Rice Krispy mixture. Let set in a cool place till chocolate mixture sets up. Be careful not to let the chocolate get too hard, it will not make a neat roll if you do. Loosen all around with a metal spatula. Roll, starting on
