Table For Two

This past Sunday, I came across a coupon for $2 off of a new Bon Appetit frozen meal.  So of course I had to try it!  The original price was $8.  So I fed me and my husband for $3 per person!  I would like to see you spend that at any restaurant!  We got the Roasted Garlic Chicken!  (Great choice)  For those of you who love garlic as much as me, there are whole roasted garlic cloves in this!  YUMMY!


So here's what this is.  You open the bag and there are two individual parchment pouches in it (for 2!).  Now ladies, if your husband can't cook, or isn't that great at it, he can do this!  You can cook it in the microwave or oven.  All you do is put the parchment bags right side up on your baking sheet (for the oven), put it in at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, pull it out, cut the bags open, and slide them onto your plate!  HOW EASY IS THAT! 


The back also has suggestions on wine pairings and side dishes.  Ours came with this yummy, super easy salad recipe.  Again, so easy anyone can do it!  Makes you feel like you can cook gourmet food without having any kitchen skills!


Viola'!  Be jealous of my fancy paper plates, I didn't feel like doing any dishes, and I assure you, I didn't mess up a single dish for this, except my wine glass!  The chicken was tender, the sauce was amazing, the ravioli was super yummy, and I ate all of my veggies!  With Bon Appetit, you can create an amazing, romantic dinner for two!  Just tell him to follow all of the directions on the back of the package, and to use the nice plates!  PS.......I also got another $1 off coupon in the bag!

What's For Dinner: Leftover Chicken

Wednesday night I roasted a whole chicken for dinner!  Of course there were a ton of leftovers!!!!  Thursday is bowling night for my hubby!  So dinner has to be quick!  So here is my Leftover Chicken Pot Pie Casserole:

Leftover chicken
Leftover veggies (broccoli, green beans, carrots, peas, etc...)
3 cups of rotini noodles (cooked al dente)
1 can cream of chicken soup (or any cream soup you like!)
1/3 cup of ranch dressing
2 tablespoons butter (melted)
1/4 cup of milk (I use 1%)
Croutons (I use the Texas Toast brand, they come in a bag, so use one whole bag)
1tsp. garlic powder
Pepper

Pre-heat the oven to 350.  Boil noodles until they are al dente.  You don't want to cook them all the way since you will be baking this dish.  Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.  Pour mixture into a casserole dish.  Sprinkle with more pepper to your liking.  Bake the casserole for 20 minutes.  The noodles should be fork tender at this point!  And viola'!  Dinner is served in less than 25 minutes!

Serves 4-6 people depending on how hungry your bunch is!!!!
