Recipe Review       

Today’s Recipe and Location:           Chicken Scallopini

Found in: The Pioneer Woman blog

I figured out that there are 321 calories per serving, if 12 servings are made. (Please note that the calorie counts vary depending on the specific brands of ingredients that you choose to use.)

Warm, blurry chicken breasts

This was one heck of a great dinner. Just look
at the spices, chicken and pasta

         I actually liked this dish. I was surprised at how thin the sauce was, but the taste was worthwhile. This dish was really good and I froze several servings. I am thrilled that I can have it over and over during the next few weeks. That is another plus with all of Ree’s recipes. They all freeze well. The only one I had trouble with was a breaded chicken dish. That didn’t freeze well because the chicken lost its crispiness. I must say, however, that it tasted amazing even though I missed the crunch.

       

Random Reflections

         On December 10th,  Ken Weatherwax, a.k.a. Pugsley Addams, died of a heart attack. Looking back, I think the Addams family was a dumb show, but it did have its funny moments. What was really sad was that Pugsley was only 59 years old.  Gosh, I am going to be 59, in January. It really made me sit and think.

      

Irksome Ideas and Images

         I really don’t like little repetitive annoying sounds. In my classroom, the tables becoming shaky and squeaky as the kids lean on them. We have an amazing custodian named Mr. Mercado, who puts up with a lot of requests to tighten up the tables. If the kids didn’t lean on them so much, they would stay all tight and squeakless. I wish it didn’t bother me so much.
