Great Recipe

All,
I tried out a recipe from my new Amish cookbook last night and it was wonderful! Everyone in my family liked it considering I live with some very picky eaters. Thought I would share it!

Savory Crescent Chicken Squares
- 3 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened (I doubled the recipe and I just used one 8 oz block instead of using just 6 oz)
- 3 T. butter
- 2 c. cooked chicken, cubed
- 1/4 t. salt
- 1/8 t. pepper
- 2 T. milk
- 1 T. chopped pimento
- 8 oz. can Pillsbury refrigerated quick crescent dinner rolls
- 1/4 c. seasoned croutons, crushed

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend cream cheese and 2 T. butter until smooth. Add the next 5 ingredients, mis well. Separate crescent dough into 4 rectangles. Firmly press perferations, to seal. Spoon 1/2 c. meat mixture into center of each rectangle. Put 4 corners of dough to top center of chicken mixture, twist slightly, and seal edges. Brush top with reserved 1 T. butter and dip in crouton crumbs. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Mushroom Sauce
Heat together 1 can mushroom soup, and 1/2 to 1 c. milk and server with chicken squares.

We did not make the mushroom sauce last night but I am sure that would have been yummy too.

Hope you can try this out and you love it as much as we did!

Well, we are off to a friends 5th birthday party today and then to spend time with their family before dad is sent overseas for over a year :( It will be a busy day but fun.

Random Thoughts

Happy New Year everyone (or the few people who actually look at my blog)! I have some quick random thoughts today...

- My 2nd favorite smell in the whole world is the Harmony candle by Beanpod Candles. It reminds me of the perfume Angel which I love. It is my 2nd favorite because my favorite smell is my husband with his cologne Joop.

- We made it throught the holidays slightly unscathed. Almost my entire family ended up getting the stomach flu. That part was miserable. But we still enjoyed our time together.

- We made do with the enormous amount of snow by going snowmobiling on Sunday. My wonderful husband brought home 2 sleds from work. Boy was that fun. I think it can be added to my favorite past times list!

- I dislike the snowplow greatly!!! That thing can undo in 2 minutes what I spent 2 hours doing!!

- If I could give my desire for this next year one word I think it would be....PEACE. We will see.

- I really wish I could just warm up. I feel like for 5 months I am chilled to the bone and then in April/May I finally start to thaw out. Oh well, I guess that is what I get for living in MN.

Okay, I think that is enough of my random thoughts. Just thought I would pop in to say hello!
