PHOTO FIT

-
What have I been thinking?   I have been blogging for a few weeks now and have yet to post a recipe. I love to cook and bake. I'm married to a, "chicken ranchin, produce growin man",  who is working hard to give me material for my blog and I just realized I've been ignoring it.         

 I've got to get a cell phone or a camera or something so I can take pictures like Paula Deen
and the Pioneer Woman.  First I''ve got to clean the kitchen, get some pretty dishes,  fix my hair, paint my nails and lose fifty pounds.  Then I can include photos with the recipes.
.
But for now, while I'm working on getting the kitchen, and me photo fit, why don't you all take a few minutes and share your families favorite chicken meal?

This is what Lucas asks for when he comes home on the weekends. Well, actually he asks for Chicken Pot Pie and Poppy Seed Chicken but today I'll share Poppy seed Chicken....Remember photos to follow!

POPPY SEED CHICKEN

8 whole chicken breast or 1 large hen, cooked, deboned and chopped
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
8 oz. sour cream
1 stick butter, (real butter)
Poppy seeds

After chopping cooked chicken, add soup, crackers and the sour cream. Mix it up good and pour it in a 9x13 dish.  Personally, I like to use a deeper dish because it doesn't dry out as much, but that's just me.
Melt the butter and pour over the top of the casserole and sprinkle the Poppy seeds on top.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until hot throughout.

Honestly, if you don't have any poppy seeds make the casserole anyway. I think someone just thought of throwing the poppy seeds on there to make it sound nice but you can serve it without and never notice.

Have a great day!

I'm off to get my kitchen and me photo fit!!!

Raisin Pie....AN OLD FASHIONED FAVORITE

-

Some of you requested the Raisin Pie recipe so here it is. I had never had a raisin pie until I married into the Gray family. Mark loved them and when I was given a bridal shower before we married, everyone was asked to bring a recipe. Marilyn Losson brought this one. I have to admit as a young wife I let it sit in the recipe box for a little while but once I took it out, it just kept coming back out. Mark's grandpa Gray loved a raisin pie and so we took this over to his house often and of course we took a half gallon vanilla ice cream along with us. When Lucas came in the other day and saw this on the counter he said the first thing he thought of was Grandpa Herman. The girls aren't crazy about this pie but Lucas likes it and he likes it with ice cream too, so I'm thinking it's a Gray man thing. Okay, so here we go, the recipe is..... 2 cups seedless raisins 2 cups water 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 Tbsp cornstarch 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/8 tsp. salt 1 Tbs

Then take a sharp knife and make eight fairly deep slices across the top of the bread. Brush the top of the bread with Italian salad dressing. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
