a couple new recipes

more cooking has been going on around here. so i thought i'd share some of the recent favorites:

Mexican Chicken and Corn Casserole


The Corn Casserole recipe can be found here. It's a Paula Dean...so it's amazing...and not by any means good for you.

I made up the Mexican Chicken...

You Need:
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1/2 - 2/3 jar of salsa (i used chichis mild)
  • 1 -2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • Taco seasoning
  • Mexican cheese mix
  • Cooking spray

To Do:
  • Preheat oven to 400 Degrees; spray 9X13 pan with cooking spray
  • Sprinkle chicken breasts with taco seasoning
  • Pour salsa over tops of chicken covering as much as possible
  • Toss mushrooms over salsa/chicken/throughout the pan (again we LOVE tons of mushrooms here at the wiegold household)
  • Sprinkle cheese over top
  • Cook for about 25-30 min, or until chicken is cooked through

Some Notes:
  • I didn't really measure any of the above stuff when I made it, so any above measurements are guesses... just go with your gut :)
  • I just used the pre-shredded "mexican cheese" mix, but you could use a variety of course

BBQ Chicken Sandwiches (Crock pot Style)

  • 3 frozen chicken breasts
  • 1 Bottle BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup vinegar

  • Place frozen chicken breasts in crock pot, cover with sauce
  • Cook on low for 5.5 hours, shredding chicken in last 30 minutes
