French Chicken

 

I think I called this French chicken because I used wine, butter, and lavender. Anyway, it came out really good. I made this a while ago so I will try to remember what I used.

2 chicken boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon of a French spice mixture I have. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon on each breast. My spice mixture has lavender, sea salt, thyme.
1/4 teaspoon tarragon on each chicken breast
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup white wine to deglaze. Cook on medium high heat and reduce.
Serve with rice or boiled potatoes

Happy New Year

My first post of the new year. I do not make resolutions when the new year comes. I would never stick to them and why wait for the new year to change. I started this blog as an outlet, in a way. I wanted to talk about food and post what I love to do the most, which is cook. I didn't spend as much time working on this blog and my food as I would like. This past year has been very hectic. I hope to spend more time working on my blog and cooking. I honestly just do not feel like being on the computer after typing all day, but I have to deal with it if I want to work on this. I hope one day people will read this blog and enjoy it. Actually, I just hope people will start reading it. There are so many food blogs out there. I know mine is not very interesting compared to what is out there. It would be nice to be taken seriously about my food. I do plan on working on making this more interesting and hopefully popular one day. If anybody does read this, thank you.

Mashed Potato Bake

Make your favorite kind of mashed potato and add any flavoring you would like. I tend to like roasted garlic in this one. Mix with one egg and cover with cheese. Bake at 375 until brown.

BBQ Meatballs

 

These were so good.

Buy or make meatballs and then simmer in barbecue sauce for 30 to 40 minute or so. Serve over white rice.

Cheese Souffle

My very first cheese souffle. It tasted even better than I had expected!

As much bacon as you need to wrap up your turkey
