What's for dinner?

Safeway had large chicken breasts on sale for $1.97 a lb value pack. Max 4 lbs, so I got the largest package I could get. Got two vac packed with two breast in each, and then kept the other four for last nites dinner.

We are not fans of white meat cus its dry and crumbly. NOT LAST NITE! I found several similar recipes and concocted my own.

Roll "cut in half lengthwise" the large breasts in oil, holding up to drip. The roll in a spice mixture of a bit of brown sugar, and all the spices you want. Cook in very hot oven 425F for 20 min. They were fabulous!!

yesterday i fried a few burgers and we had them with mushrooms. very simple but that is what Mom wanted. this morning i fried up eight more small burgers so Mom could have them to eat at night when she gets home and she wanted to take some to her friend's place.

for breakfast i finished off some sort of baked beans from the freezer, they were good, but i do need to eat something else now as that was some time ago.

Taco seasoning on shredded chicken is great. Hubby likes it as just sandwich filling.

We get at least 2 meals from a roast chicken. Hubby's been really happy having the 2nd one be tacos

Had roasted chicken on pumpernickel sandwich for breakfast at 5am....not sure what lunch was ...but, dinner was cottage cheese while cooking mushrooms, then those. Strange day.

I like the chicken tacos idea. Maybe tomorrow I'll clean up that chicken and make some taco chicken & cheese burritos for the freezer & for lunch. Need to cook up bacon & eggs for breakfast burritos to freeze (bacon/egg/cheese). There will be grilled onions & peppers in there some where.

I like a protein breakfast but, not cooking ea morning. So these or heating leftovers from dinner works. Will cook down chicken carcass for broth this week, too.

Since I thawed chicken broth for gravy I didn't make, it'll be a soup with that. . Maybe some white beans, onions/spinach/pasta ... Whatever I find.

I like pumpernickel bread. Does anyone know what pumpernickel means???

I like pumpernickel bread. Does anyone know what pumpernickel means???

i did not and perhaps still do not, but the wiki gives a short meaning as "farting devil" or "devil's fart" but that is not accepted by the Oxford peeps so... thank you for getting me to go read a part of that, but i had to bail out as the entry was in and of itself rather long-winded... (in a good way, i just don't have that much time right now).

I think it is a rye flour bread, or a blend of flours including rye flour.
