Baked Chicken & Asparagus

Elaine Green has posted Baked Chicken & Asparagus"This recipe is from my mother-in-law and I have been making it for years. We love it! It is pretty easy and can be made ahead, then bake when you are ready. (I add about 5 min to baking time if I have put the prepared dish in the refrigerator before baking.) You don't have to make with 4 chicken breast. I sometimes make only 2 or 3 chicken breast if they are very large. I like to slice the chicken breast because a whole chicken breast seems to large. Not necessary though. * I use MILK instead of whipping cream because I don't always have whipping cream on hand." Pinch It!

My $100 A Month Grocery Budget – Week 8 of 52

It was a good week! I didn’t buy anything I tried 2 new bread recipes {and they were both winners}. Most of our meals were centered around items we had canned last summer. Last Monday I set out 8 jars I wanted to try and empty by the end of the week.  And well, setting those jars out on the kitchen counter and having them staring back at me worked so well… I’m going to do it again.  Canning your own food is pretty awesome. Growing your own food is even better, but gobbling up all the fruits of your labor? Well, I don’t think it gets any better than that. Last week we emptied:  1 Jar of Beef Stew...
