Baked Mashed Potatoes with Parmesan Cheese and Bread Crumbs

 images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRYgvRkFz8Jo_UJFOz51Ij9vHvXfvhX2SUeKv2IXQvleLguvlNa

Prep Time: 20 min
Cook Time: 35 min Level:
Easy Serves: 6 to 8 servings

1 tablespoon butter
4 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1 1/2 cups grated mozzarella
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons plain dry bread crumbs
 

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter and set aside.
Cook the potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water until they are very tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; return the potatoes to the same pot and mash well. Mix in the milk and melted butter. Mix in the mozzarella and 3/4 cup of the Parmesan. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish. Stir the bread crumbs and remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan in a small bowl to blend. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture over the mashed potatoes. Recipe can be prepared up to this point 6 hours ahead of time; cover and chill.

Bake, uncovered, until the topping is golden brown, about 20 minutes.

chicken in a basket:

 homestylechickenbiscuitcass1.jpg
one 12.5oz can of ready to eat chicken, drained
one 3.5oz can of Lesure Early Baby Green Peas, drained
One can of Cream of Chicken Soup
1/2 small white onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic
one 8oz tub of sour cream
1/2 cup of milk
one can of Pillsbury fluffy/flaky bisquits (may need only 4-5 bisquits for the recipe)
One 2 cup bag of sharp cheddar cheeze, shreadded
 
Directions:
Step 1:  Sautee the onions and garlic in butter over medim-high heat, until almost clear.
Step 2: Mix all the ingredients into a bowl except for the cheeze and bisquits
(sour cream, milk, soup, chicken, peas, onions, garlic) Pour into your baking dish
---I like to use the glass ones, they seem to work better--- use about a 10 inch size.
Cover mixture with about 3/4 to 1 cup of the cheeze. Bake 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
Step 3: remove from oven, take the bisquits and roll them flat, I just use a drinking glass to roll them flat. Cover the top with the bisquits, until completely covered. Its ok if they overlap a bit.  Cover the bisquits with about another 1/4 to 1/2 cup of cheeze. 
Bake again for another 12-15 mintues until the bisquits are done!
 
And thats IT!!! This dish is extremly filling and tastes incredible, almost like a homemade chicken-pot-pie. The sause comes out very thick and creamy. There is no need for a side dish, because it already has everthing, meat, bread and vegetable. Kevins mom calls it Chicken in A Basket.  I just call it Chicken Pie Casserole.

 Prepare a large tube or bundt pan by spraying evenly with cooking spray.

Pop 2 bags of buttered microwave popcorn as directed on the package and dump into a large bowl.

 

 Pick out the kernels that didn’t pop…broken teeth aren’t so cute.

Now mix in 2 cups of M&M’s and 1 1/2 cups broken pretzel sticks..not crushed, just broken into smaller pieces…

 

 

 Melt 1 stick (1/2 cup) of butter over low in a large saucepan

When melted add in a 16 oz bag of mini marshmallows (8 cups)

Stir until melted and smooth.

Remove from heat and pour over your popcorn mix.

 Stir until all the ingredients are combined and then press into the prepared pan. 

Cover with foil and let your cake set for at least an hour to cool.
When you are ready to serve the cake loosen sides of your cake from the pan by running a butter knife around the edges.
Flip your pan over onto your serving platter.
Your cake should come out pretty easily.
{You want it to cool completely so it will cut nicely}

Chicken Spaghetti Recipe 

 

   

Chicken-Spaghetti-2

For some reason a lot of kids dislike spaghetti because of the red sauce that covers it. Never mind trying to add low fat protein to it, that red sauce just turns them off from eating a good healthy dinner.

Enter chicken spaghetti made the old fashioned way! With a cheesy, creamy, "chicken-y" sauce mixed throughout with noodles; it's all their favorite ingredients with the added bonus of chicken. The bell pepper is a tasty addition, but can be left out without sacrificing taste. You can easily substitute the pepper with broccoli for a slightly different taste that is sure to please even the pickiest eaters.

Chicken Spaghetti

Ingredients:

3 cups cooked, finely cubed or shredded chicken meat
1 (8 oz.) pkg. spaghetti noodles
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Boil spaghetti in a large pot of salted boiling water. Let simmer, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes or until pasta is al dente. Drain.

2. Coat a 9 x 13 inch pan with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

3. In a large bowl combine the chicken, cooked spaghetti,  bell pepper, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth and 1 cup of the cheese.

4. Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix all together.

5. Spread mixture into the baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

6. Sprinkle remaining cup of cheese on top and bake for another 15 minutes.

 During a wedding ceremony, the bride and groom make vows before God, family and friends who love and support one another throughout their marriage. Wedding ceremonies can be performed by spiritual leaders like priests, ministers, rabbis, or by any person who is ordained to conduct weddings. In order to conduct a wedding ceremony, an officiant must be ordained and follow the state laws where the marriage will be performed. An officiant also must have an understanding of the elements of a wedding ceremony, and be able to flawlessly execute the ceremony. Use these tip to conduct a wedding ceremony.

Obtain ordination credentials. If you are not already ordained as a spiritual leader of a religious group, you must become ordained in order to legally conduct a wedding ceremony.

  • You'll need to attend a religious school to become ordained if you want to perform wedding ceremonies.
  • You'll need online ordination credentials if you will be conducting an occasional wedding ceremony for family or friends. Many Internet sites offer online ordination credentials, as well as instructions and training for performing wedding ceremonies.

 

Understand the marriage laws in the state where the couple will be married.Each state has specific laws about who can legally conduct a wedding ceremony. If you are not sure of the laws, contact the local county clerk where the wedding will be held. Ask what you need to do to register in order to perform a legally binding wedding in that state

 

Meet with the couple to be married. The couple may have a specific type of ceremony in mind for their wedding. Some couples may want a traditional wedding ceremony, while others may choose to create their own ceremony. Find out exactly what the couple desires for their wedding ceremony prior to the event.

 

Plan the wedding ceremony. Most wedding ceremonies consist of 7 parts: the procession, invocation, declaration of intent, vows exchange, ring exchange, pronouncement and recession. A wedding officiant should write down the order and language of each part of the ceremony, so he or she can refer to it as needed during the ceremony.

  • Organize the procession. The procession is the beginning of the wedding ceremony, during while the guests are seated, the wedding party enters and the bride enters. The procession is typically accompanied by music. In some traditions, the bride is accompanied by her father during the procession, but in others, both parents process in with the bride. The bride also can process in by herself.
  • Write the invocation. During the invocation, the officiant greets the guests, introduces the couple and announces the purpose of the gathering. Some couples choose to include a special reading from a religious text or poem during the invocation.
  • Prepare the declaration of intent. During the declaration of intent, the officiant asks the couple if they will marry each another. The declaration confirms that the bride and groom are willingly entering into a marriage covenant. Couples usually respond with "I do" or "I will" to the officiant's questions of intent. Traditionally, the officiant asks the wedding guests if anyone present objects to the wedding during the declaration of intent. However, this tradition, which dates back to the 1920s, is not required.
  • Prepare the vows exchange. Some couples want traditional wedding vows while other couple want to write their own. If the couple prepares their own vows, the officiant should remain quiet and attentive. If the couple chooses to use traditional vows, the officiant may ask the bride and groom to repeat the vows after him. In this case, the officiant should speak slowly and clearly so the bride and groom can repeat the vows without forgetting or stumbling over words.
  • Organize the ring exchange. During the ring exchange, the bride and groom place wedding rings on each other's fingers. In some traditions, the ring exchange may include spoken vows that usually begin with the phrase, "with this ring, I thee wed." If the ceremony includes ring bearers, they will present the rings to the couple. Otherwise, the best man typically gives the rings to the officiant, who may bless the rings before giving them to the couple. Following the ring exchange, some couples may choose to include a special ritual in the wedding ceremony, such as lighting a unity candle, presenting roses to the parents or sharing a meaningful song.
  • Prepare the pronouncement. During the pronouncement, the officiant declares that the couple is now married. In many traditions, this is when the bride and groom kiss for the first time as a married couple, sealing their wedding vow with a kiss. The officiant often includes a phrase like, "by the authority vested in my by the state of (where the wedding is taking place) during the pronouncement to show that the wedding is spiritually and legally binding.
  • Organize the recession. During the recession, the newly married couple exits the ceremony space, followed by the bridal party, family and guests. The officiant may follow the bridal party out of the ceremony space to greet guests, or may wait until all guests have recessed.

 

Lead a wedding ceremony rehearsal. A wedding ceremony rehearsal is a time for the bride, groom, wedding party and family to practice the actual ceremony. The wedding rehearsal is typically held the evening before the wedding. During the rehearsal, the officiant guides the bride, groom and wedding party through each part of the ceremony. If the bride and groom are writing their own vows, this gives them an opportunity to practice their vows.

 

 

Conduct the wedding ceremony. The officiant performs the ceremony at the appointed time on the wedding day. The officiant should not deviate from the order or language used at the wedding ceremony rehearsal. Additionally, the officiant should be prepared to offer encouragement to the bride and groom, who may be nervous about speaking in front of their guests.

 

 
Provide a marriage license for the couple. Depending on the state laws, the officiant may be required to sign a marriage license. In many cases, the officiant also is responsible for getting the license signed by 2 witnesses and then mailing the license to the proper state officials. If the officiant does not sign the marriage license, he or she may supply the couple with a signed wedding certificate as a keepsake of the special day.
