BIZZY BAKES

Margaret at Tea and Scones  selected this dish for our weekly Eating with Ellie.  I really couldn't make it since as a kosher cook, I don't combine cheese and poultry or meat.  Dairy and meat are kept completely separate even to the point that we don't eat them at the same meal. I did make the chicken dish without the Parmesan but the cheese is really the star of this recipe. You can see what the other women made by visiting the Ellie website . Next week, we will be making  Peach Chicken with Crispy Bread Crumbs. Are you an Ellie fan or do you want to simply try out a new cook or new recipes?  We welcome you to join us.  There are no requirements and the participants are the most warm and friendly group of women.  Just link up at Eating with Ellie.   (EwE)

I tend to keep a filled kitchen.  I am not good about running to the store, in the middle of cooking.  I want to be able to reach into cabinets and find what I want.  As a result, I can end up with some unusual ingre...

Oven Fried Chicken Ingredients: 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1  cup Rice Milk salt and pepper to taste 3-4 chicken cutlets 3/4 cup dehydrated mashed potatoes 1/4 cup  flax seed flour   Method: Heat oven to 350° F.  In a small bowl, combine the paprika, milk, and salt and pepper.  Add mashed potatoes and flax seed flour. Put coating in a plastic bag. Add the chicken and coat as completely as possible. Place chicken in a pan similar to a lasagna pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. * The mystery ingredient is the dehydrated mashed potato.  It has no salt in it and brings the crisp of Panko to the breading.  I like it better than almost any other option other than chopped nuts.  Nuts are delicious.   ...
