Recipe Recommendation:
Last week I tried this Crunchy Chicken with Pasta recipe.
Like usual, I didn't follow the recipe exactly. I didn't have Philadelphia Cooking Cream, but I did have cream cheese and a package of sun-dried tomato and herb seasoning. I coated my chicken pieces in a flour, Ritz crackers, spices, and butter mixture. Then I used the drippings from the pan and made a roux with flour and chicken broth. I added cream cheese, the seasoning packet, cream of mushroom soup, and more chicken broth to make the sauce creamy and the right consistency. I served it with rotini noodles covered with the cream sauce, topped with the crispy chicken, and sauteed veggies. It was quite scrumptious, if I do say so myself! Definitely a recipe I recommend!
One night this past week, I got up to take Grandma to the bathroom around 2:00 AM. Once I got her taken care of and settled back into bed, I had a little trouble falling back asleep. You know why? I couldn't shut my brain off. I was thinking of recipe ideas. I was planning out meals that we could have with using up ingredients we already on hand. I was also craving some kind of cream cheese/chili dip and wondering when I could make that.
Then my mind turned to our move to Florida. I got panicked wondering if there was going to be a Hobby Lobby and JoAnn Fabric close to our new house. I had to finally force myself to settle my brain and get some sleep! But, I did make a mental note to look up the nearest Hobby Lobby and Joann's in the morning. No worries...there are stores within 15 miles! Yippee!

Yummy week!! I hope you enjoy the patty melts. Your Crunchy Chicken with Pasta recipe looks delicious!
Every day sounds like a great meal! I made meatloaf on Sunday because I had been craving it so much. I think I am going to use some of your recipe ideas for next week!
I have issues with turning my brain off all the time. There are a ton of JoAnn's down here, and they just got a new Hobby Lobby in Lakeland. Best of all there there are several Michael's stores, which other than not selling fabric, I personally thing is the best of the three. :)
