DH is supposed to do the cooking - I got a phone call asking if he coudl order LaRosa's or if I wanted him to get something out and cook it. This was at 4:30. So, we are having LaRosas since we would likely ended up having chicken rings since everything was still in the freezer! LOL
Tonite I just had peanut butter and crackers. I made grilled ham and cheese sandwiches for DH and Jack. I have needed to go to the store, but we have had lots of company and no time!
I'm planning some homemade chicken noodle soup, Jambalaya and stir fry...
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained (I use 2 cans cause beans are my thing!) 2 (16 ounce) cans whole kernel corn, drained 1 jar bottled thick and chunky salsa 5 or 6 skinless boneless chicken breasts (I use 1.5-2 pounds chicken) 8 ounces cream cheese (I use fat free)
In crockpot, mix together the beans, corn and 1/2 of the salsa. Top with the chicken breasts, then pour the remaining salsa over the chicken. Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the chicken is tender and white throughout; do not overcook or the chicken will toughen.
Remove the chicken and cut into bite-size pieces or shred it. Return chicken pieces to the crock pot. Add the cream cheese (cut into cubes to melt faster), and turn crock pot to HIGH. Heat until cream cheese melts and blends into sauce. Serve over rice.

Hey there! Would mind sharing your biscuit recipe. I can make a lot of things but I stink at biscuits! Haven't found a recipe that doesn't hate yet but am always looking for a new one to try
It is 10:43 and no dinner here tonight, compliments of DS and his wreck and the aftermath attitude. I have a nice glass of white wine. I envy everyone who had a nice dinner.

Also, can I have the recipe for Santa Fe Chicken?
