TIPSY TUESDAY

AFTERNOON EVERYONE
Sorry for the couple of days off from posting.. Had a hectic weekend , lots to do with the boys and having the family up for Grumpy's birthday dinner.. Yesterday was getting all my school orders ready so all work and no play....Today I am not going  to post a shopping list cause you have probably done your grocery shopping already so you will get a weekly menu, a craft, a dessert and a tip.. So here it goes:

Weekly Menu

Tuesday     Chicken Parmesan
Wednesday     Beef Stew with Mushrooms
Thursday     Mexican Beef Casserole
Friday     Crunch Baked Fish

Chicken Parmesan
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves crushed garlic
red pepper flakes
5 – 6 boneless chicken breasts
2 cups bottled (or your own) marinara sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
8 ounces  mozzarella, shredded
4 ounces  Parmesan
1 package seasoned croutons
I have attached a video on how to bake this rather then giving you a preparation

When I made this the video said 350 degrees for 35 minutes I cooked mine for 55 minutes.. I used real thick chicken breasts and when I put my meat thermonater in at 35 minutes they were not done.. You could probably pound the chicken breasts first before you put them in the casserole and that would cut down you cooking time.. It was very good ..

Dessert
EASTER POPS

How cute are these.
Attached is a video of how to make these ..
