THRIFTY THURSDAY

MORNING EVERYONE...

Looks like we are in for another nice day up her. There are clouds in the air but I can also see some blue sky under there...Not much happening today , going to finish up an order this morning then I will probably have the afternoon off , from dungeon work anyway... If it does stay nice outside I think I will tackle working outside a bit... will sweep off my decks at the back and maybe do a bit raking some leaves between the shrubs at front... Will just have to see what the weather brings..

TIN FOIL CHICKEN

chicken legs/breasts

green beans

potatoes, peas, corn,butter

herbs and spices of your choice

tin foil

Place a piece of aluminum foil on your workspace. Arrange the chicken in the center and season it with herbs and spices of your choice.
Cut potatoes into fourths and place them on the foil

Place green beans, peas and corn on the foil. I sometimes use peppers..
Spread softened butter over all the ingredients.

Wrap the foil around the ingredients and wrap another piece around that.

Place on the grill over high heat, turning it only once before taking it off.

Extra virgin olive oil may be used instead of butter, if desired.

When baking foil packets using butter, a few teaspoons of bread crumbs may be sprinkled over the chicken for extra flavor.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a dash of soy sauce can add to the flavor. They may be baked in the oven as well.. say at 400 for about 45 minutes.. Make sure you put it on a baking sheet and turn over 1/2 way through the cooking.

When using the bread crumbs I like to use flavoured croutons as well...all you have to do is put them in a ziploc bag and use your rolling pin to crush them or in a food processor or chopper if you have one.

THRIFTY THURSDAY

Dusting:
Dryer sheets that have been used may then be removed from the dryer and used as "microfiber dusting cloths", they work great at picking up dust and it stays on the sheet. Just put the used dryer sheets in a ziploc bag and store with all of your cleaning stuff...
