Katie's Chicken Lasagna
Ingredients:
cooked lasagna noodles
1 10oz. package frozen, chopped spinach - thawed and drained
lots of shredded mozzarella (I never measure cheese or chocolate!)
lots of shredded parmesan cheese (not the sprinkle kind)
1 lb. ricotta cheese mixed with 1 egg (I REALLY don't like ricotta so I left this whole step out!)
Sauce ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 tsp. salt
3 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp basil
pepper to taste
2 1/2 cups cooked chicken chopped or shredded (I used canned chicken-all white, breast meat)
Melt butter. Add flour, salt, basil, and pepper. Stir in broth. Cook until mixture thickens. Add chicken.
In a 9x13 pan, layer noodles, spinach, cheese and sauce. Bake at 375 for 1 hour.
For dessert, I made my friend Tina's Bits of Brickle cake. Easiest, yummiest cake in the world!
Tina's Bits of Brickle Cake
Ingredients:
1 butter pecan cake mix...or chocolate
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 bag of He@th bits of brickle (find these next to the chocolate chips)
bake 1 butter pecan cake as directed. When it comes out of the oven, use a fork to poke holes all over the cake. Pour a can of E@gle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk over cake. Sprinkle a bag of He@th Bits of Brickle on top.
A big thanks to my friends Katie and Tina for the recipes!
After we ate, we just sat around and talked...it was such a fun time with my friends! Their daughters kept us in stitches. They loved my treadmill...I think that's the most it's been used since I got it! I borrowed these pics from Finley's blog! Karisee (aka curly sue) was a snuggle bug...she let me hold her and love on her and it made my day! It's referral time for those who were logged in Jan 4-9, 2006...congrats to them...but I am SO lonesome for my Emma and they are moving SO SLOW!!!! There's more than a "year" of refferals ahead of me. My log in date is January 31, 2007. It seems like it will never get here! I can't wait to hold her...to see and hear her laugh...my heart aches for her tonight...I am hoping for a speed up after the Olympics! At the rate my condo is coming along, Emma may get here first!
