Swift and Easy Chicken Parmesan

My friend, Marcia, gave this recipe to me. It is swift and easy to make! Tasty too!

Recipe for Chicken Parmesan:


4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 egg, beaten
3/4 cup Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs
1 jar Spaghetti/Pasta sauce (or less to taste - I like it moist)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or Monterrey Jack is good too)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Dip chicken in beaten egg, then in the bread crumbs.
In a 13 x 9 baking dish, arrange chicken flat.
Bake uncovered 20 minutes in the oven.
Pour sauce over chicken, top with cheese.
Bake 10 more minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

~Tastes great with a garden salad and french bread! This is a great dish to share with company as well.

A Sandwich, A Lettuce Wrap, Anyone?

I've been on a sandwich kick lately and so I've been trying some fun combination's. I've found that I love Kraft Foods website to get some great ideas to build a great sandwich. This is also my first time to make and eat a lettuce wraps. I don't love iceberg lettuce but I love it in a wrap like this. Nice flavor and a healthier choice. Both of these are my variations from the website. I'll include the link to the original as well.

Chicken Caesar Sandwich

1 Tbsp. Caesar dressing - I used Brianna's Home Style Asiago Caesar dressing
1 French Bread roll, partially split - love Kaiser rolls too!
2 Tbsp. shredded Parmesan cheese - I buy a small chunk from the deli and shred my own.
1 romaine lettuce leaf - I washed, patted dry with paper towel and tore up by hand. Cutting lettuce makes it brown faster.
5 slices thin sliced oven roasted chicken breast - I did use Oscar Mayer
1 slice tomato

Prepare as you would any sandwich. It tasted great and reminded me of a Caesar salad on a bun. I think I might even like this better since I'm not usually a fan of Caesar salad all the time. I have to be in the mood.


Deli Lettuce Roll-Ups

1/2 cup coleslaw blend - I used Fresh N' Easy
1 Tbsp. Cucumber Ranch - I used KRAFT. I just don't like coleslaw dressing.
6 slices ham - I used Oscar Meyer Virginia Brand Ham
2 large lettuce leaves - washed and patted dry with paper towel.
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese - I used a brick of KRAFT Sharp cheddar and shredded my own.

Each large lettuce leaf gets 3 slices of ham. Sprinkle with cheese and coleslaw blend. Top with salad dressing. I didn't mix the coleslaw and dressing together like the recipe suggests. Roll up. Eat right away. These taste best fresh and don't keep well.

I hope you like it! I did!
