Chicken Alfredo Biscuit Bake

I found this recipe on pinterest and it looked delicious.  It was quick to throw together and tasted great!


1 (16 oz.) jar Alfredo sauce
1/4 cup milk
2 cups cooked chicken, chopped
2 cups frozen broccoli, thawed
1/4 tsp. dried basil
1 can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 Tbsp butter, melted
1 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese, grated



Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. In a large, nonstick skillet, mix the Alfredo sauce, milk, chicken, broccoli, and basil.  Cook until thoroughly heated and bubbly, stirring occasionally.  


Pour mixture into baking dish.  Separate your biscuits and cut each one in half, crosswise.  Arrange around the edge of the baking dish, overlapping slightly.  Drizzle the melted butter over the biscuits and sprinkle with cheese. 


 Bake 15-20 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.  (Mine had to cook for almost 30 minutes to cook the biscuits all the way through)

Mexican Chicken

Since Marley's about to start kindergarten and life is getting back into a routine I've started making more dinners instead of just heating something up at the last minute.  This recipe turned out pretty good, and probably would of been really good on some taco shells too.


1 pound boneless chicken breasts 
1 teaspoon taco seasoning mix
Salt, to taste 
1/2 cup enchilada sauce 
4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with taco seasoning. Cut the chicken into cubes and place in a bowl. Add the enchilada sauce and toss to coat the chicken. Pour into square baking dish. Sprinkle the cheese over the chicken and bake at 350ยบ for 25-30 minutes, until hot and bubbly and chicken is no longer pink.

Mason has been brushing his hair lately, it's so cute. 

We went to Jak's Warehouse the other night. It was a lot of fun and we didn't even do 
everything they had there. 

He's also been doing this lately too.

Cotton Candy Salad

This past weekend we had a small family get together with my cousins from my dad's side of the family.  I made veggie pizza which I've made before and tried out a new recipe for cotton candy salad.



1 can eagle brand milk
2 cups crushed pineapple, drained well
1 can strawberry pie filling
1 can cherry pie filling
12 oz. tub cool whip


Fold/Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Chill and serve. 



It didn't taste like cotton candy really, but it was still pretty good. I wonder if you could add those frosting cotton candy flavor packets to give it the right flavor?
