Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400F.
  2. Rinse and pat dry chicken breast.
  3. Pour olive oil in 9" x 9" square baking pan. With brush, spread on bottom of pan, coat both sides of the chicken breast, and one side of a sheet of parchment paper. Sprinkle salt and pepper (and/or any other herbs/spices/seasonings you would like) over both side of chicken. Place chicken in baking pan, then covr with the parchment paper, oiled side down.
  4. Bake for 30-40 minutes - 30 is perfect in my oven - or until internal temperature is done. Sorry, gotta look that one up.
  5. Let sit at least 10 minutes before slicing, etc.
Recipe Notes

Can make ahead and keep in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Works great for cutlets, too!  Just reduce cooking time to 20 minutes.

Hot Baked Cinnamon Apples

 Hot Baked Cinnamon Apples
These cinnamon apples taste like a cobbler or pie without the crust. I was looking for a recipe for Cinnamon apples and all I could find were recipes for baking the whole apple - not what I wanted. After much searching I finally came across this recipe - I unfortunately cannot remember the site. It can easily be reduced to 2 or 3 apples, just watch it as it cooks. We serve this over ice cream and it is delicious. It can also be used on pancakes, waffles, or all by itself.

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Place cut and peeled apples in a mixing bowl and gently mix all the ingredients together.
  3. Put apples in a non-stick pan; cover and place in the oven.
  4. Bake for 45 minutes, stirring at least once every 15 minutes.
  5. Once they are soft, cook for another few minutes to thicken the cinnamon sauce.
  6. I like to put everything into my baking dish and then mix it since there is less to clean up.

Never tried this before, basically wanted to use up some gruyere that I left out of another recipe (damnit).  Will update with notes after I've tried it to see what happens.  Hopefully it works well!

Recipe Notes

UPDATED: After receiving lots of mixed reader feedback, I've went back into the kitchen and reworked this recipe. I think you will be wonderfully surprised with the results! This recipe is inspired from a recipe in Gooseberry Patch’s Slow-Cooker Christmas Favorites. When I say stir it well during the cooking process, I mean stir it all around. Top to bottom, bottom to top...all around. Toward the end of cooking (the last hour or so), you will want to watch it very closely. I wasn't sure how long exactly this would take with reworking the recipe, it took right at 3 and a half hours for mine. If I would have left it for another 30 minutes, I am sure it would have been mush instead of perfection. So, I cannot stress enough, watch it closely. As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed. crock pot recipe https://www.recipesthatcrock.com/crock-pot-creamy-chicken-and-rice/

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425F.
  2. Cook stuffing per package directions. Set aside.
  3. Butterfly pork loin roast and unroll, pound if needed so that it is evenly about 1/4" - 1/2" thick.
  4. Mix the chopped cherries and feta with the stuffing mix. Spread over inside of roast, leaving a small gap at the edges. Sprinkle the Gruyere evenly over the stuffing. Roll up the roast.
  5. Make a basket weave with the bacon. Lay the rolled roast on top of the bacon upside down, and fold the bacon over the roast. Flip right side up. Use toothpicks as necessary to keep the bacon in place.
  6. Bake for ~8 minutes, then reduce heat to 350F and bake for 65 -75 minutes or until internal temperature is 145F. Remove from oven, let rest for at least 10 minutes.
  7. Can add 50g gruyere cheese to sprinkle on top of the stuffing mix before rolling and baking.
  8. Tried shredded smoked cheddar instead of feta, and started sat 400F for 20 min, then decreased to 350F for 75 minutes. Think 60 minutes would have been enough.
Recipe Notes

I ran out of cherries, didn't realize that until I started to put it together, so I'm trying it with raisins this time.  I also forgot the gruyere, damnit.  We'll see how it turns out this time! Also, I'm going to try starting at a higher temp to crisp the bacon blanket (hopefully) then reduce heat to 350 to finish cooking.  Wish me luck!  (5.30.18)

 

I swapped out the smoked cheddar for smoked gouda, and subbed cranberries for cherries.  Was really good!  I also gave it 15 minutes at 425F, then dropped it to 350F for 40 minutes.  Turned out pretty good!  I had a slightly smaller roast, only 19.4oz, so the shorter cooking time worked great, and actually could have been about 5 minutes less for that size.  Didn't add baby spinach leaves, but that might add some additional moistness, though it didn't really need it this time.   (10.1.19)

Instructions
  1. Make the marinara sauce. Add pizza sauce and let simmer together for a few minutes.
  2. While the sauce is cooking, cook the meat together, adding salt and pepper to taste. Cook the lasagna noodles per package directions, but don't drain.
  3. Preheat oven to 350F.
  4. Lightly spray the bottom of a 9 x 13 dish. Lay 3 noodles along the bottom of the pan so that it's completely covered by noodles. Spread about half of the meat and sauce mix evenly over noodles. Spread about half of the ricotta evenly over the meat and sauce. Sprinkle 1/2 of the cheddar cheese evenly over the ricotta. Sprinkle 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese evenly over the cheddar.
  5. Repeat that last step, place on baking sheet, and bake for 45 minutes, until the top is starting to brown and it's bubbly.
Recipe Notes

The nutrition info does not include my sauce.  You should have about 1/12 of the recipe per serving.
