Good evening.
Go Cheney! The former Vice-President strikes back at the Obama Justice Dept.'s attack on CIA investigation techniques. Cheney, unlike the Holder's Justice, values our safety & a strong national defense.
Thousands of California homes and families are in the path of devastating fires. And so we pray for their safety and that of the firefighters.
Hi DS. My workday is sucking but tomorrow I work at home so there is a better day ahead.
How are you?
That recipe is much like the one I use, Neets, with the exception of the corn. We use hominy, which of course in Texas makes it pozole....
Everything here is just ducky. We have a large flock of red winged crows visiting the bird feeder today. Making quite a rucous..?? sp?? But such beautiful birds. And the hummers are already coming through migrating to Mexico now. I am pickled tink to see you.
Also, kitty Rowdy had to have a tooth extracted. It was $500..cheaper for me to have one extracted. His sister, Stella Rose, cried all night while he was gone.
ruckus..there you go...
Chicken Spaghetti
4-5 # hen
salt to taste
1 cup celery, chopped
1 cup onion, chopped
½ cup green pepper, chopped
2 buds garlic, chopped
1 can tomatoes
1 small can mushrooms
1 tbsp. prepared mustard
dash or two tabasco
1 # grated cheese
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
cooked spaghetti
Cook hen until tender with salt to taste. When cold, take off bone and cut in bite size pieces. Saute celery, onion, green pepper and garlic until tender, but not brown. Add can tomatoes and can mushrooms. simmer until tomatoes are well cooked and all to pieces. Add prepared mustard and tabasco. Put in boiler and melt together cheese and soup. When melted, add to the tomato mixture and a layer of cooked spaghetti until all is used. Grate enough cheese over the top to cover. Cook just till bubbly. This makes 2 casseroles and 1 can be frozen for later use. Can give it extra flavor by cooking the spaghetti in the water in which the chicken was cooked.
Chicken Tetrazzini
6 servings
1 chicken (or 3-4 whole breasts), stewed, skinned and boned and kept in generous pieces
1 large(11 oz) pkg frozen noodles, cooked, drained
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
¼ soup can dry white wine
¼ cup butter
¾ cup parmesan cheese
garlic powder to taste
1 or 2 cans button mushrooms
Save out 1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Mix all the rest of ingredients together and pour into greased casserole, approximately 13x7x2 inches. Sprinkle rest of cheese over and add a few dashes of paprika for color. Bake in 350 oven for 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
This can be frozen most successfully. If frozen, put in cold oven and heat about 1 hour.
This makes a great company meal with green beans, green salad, garlic bread and some little thing for dessert.
