carton sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup diced onion
garlic powder, salt & pepper ( to taste, I did about 2 shakes of each )
dried chives
1/2 cup flour
1 stick butter
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 cup marsala wine

Directions:
Sautée 4 tbsp butter in pan with mushrooms & onions. Set aside.

Pound chicken breasts thinly. Dredge in flour. Put in frying pan with remaining butter. 3 minutes on each side till golden brown. Reserve pan drippings.

Place chicken in baking dish. Top with mushrooms & onions. Set aside.

In pan drippings add wine, broth and seasonings and bring to boil. Pour over chicken and veggies. Sprinkle cheese & chives on top. 
Bake in oven on 350 for 15 minutes until cheese bubbles. I think this would pair nicely over angel hair pasta.

Baked Chicken Taquitos

Ingredients:
Bag of frozen chicken breasts
1 jar salsa verde (Herdez brand)

Brick of cream cheese ( I always use 1/3 fat variety )
Small jar of green chilies
20 tortillas (Mission extra fluffy)

Directions:
Put everything in the crock pot except tortillas & cream cheese for 6 hours on low. Shred with fork. Add in cream cheese. Stir. 2-3 spoonfuls in tortillas and roll up. Bake 15 minutes on 300. Serve warm. I usually top with hot sauce and sometimes a dash of cheese or dollop of sour cream.

Italian Style Meatloaf

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef  ( I'm on a Laura's organic 92/8 kick )
2 large eggs
1/2 cup diced frozen onions
1 cup italian breadcrumbs
2 tbsp. parmesan cheese
garlic powder, basil, oregano, salt & pepper ( I'm horrible at measuring spices. I pinched each one. Maybe a tsp each then??? )
1 cup marinara sauce ( divided in half )
1 cup mozzarella cheese

Directions:
Mix together everything except sauce and cheese. The only way I like to do this is with my bare hands. I feel otherwise it doesn't get mixed thoroughly.  Put in baking loaf pan. Top with half the sauce and cover with foil. Bake in the oven on 350 for 40 minutes. Take out, top with cheese, and remaining sauce. Put back in oven for 5 more minutes.

I paired mine with garlic green beans, but maybe even garlic mashed potatoes & a caesar salad would be fantastic.

Mississippi Pot Roast

Ingredients: roast ( this is bottom round ) pepper rings ( the entire jar ) 1 stick of butter ( 8tbsp) 1 packet powdered ranch dressing mix 1 packet au jus mix Directions: Put it all in the crock pot on low for 6-8 hours. Make sure that you put the peppers in first, the roast on top. Sprinkle both packets over roast, and place entire stick of butter over that. The layering is important. You may use regular pepperochinis, but I think the slices work better for serving later, and you don't get any seeds this way either.
