We are still eating leftover chili from last week. We have enough , but will probably finish it off at lunch today instead of another supper of it.
Supper tonight is going to be Crispy Cajun Chicken, Baked Potatoes and steamed broccoli and yellow squash, sliced tomatoes from the garden.
Here's the recipe for the Crispy Cajun Chicken
8 BS chicken boobs
1 1/4 cups fat free buttermilk
Coating
5 cups corn flakes, crushed fine (I do mine in the food processor)
1 tbsp ground paprika
3 tsp Cajun seasoning
Rinse chicken and pat dry. Place in a nonmetal dish and pour buttermilk over it. Turn to coat, cover and refrigerate several hours. (I ususally do about 6 hours). Combine crushed cornflake crumbs, paprika, and cajun seasoning in a small bag. Close bag and mix all well. Remove 2 pieces at a time of the chciken from the buttermilk and put into bag with coating and shake to coat. Repeat with all the chicken. Coat a large baking sheet with nonfat cooking spray and put chicken on prepared pan. Lightly spray each piece of chicken with cooking spray also and bake at 400 degrees about 50 minutes or till chicken is done.
Have a good sunday

When I was young we used to go "skinny dipping"; now we just "chunky dunk"
We had a very nice visit with DS yesterday, ended up going to Applebee's for dinner. What a lovely treat! DH had a bacon cheeseburger, I had their Oriental Chicken Salad (yummm) and DS had their Orange Chicken bowl. We all enjoyed the food and catching up with each other.
Well, we are NOT going to have the tortellini soup I froze a year ago. Upon being defrosted the tortellini fell apart and had turned brown from the broth. The parsnips had gotten so strong it was unappetizing. It was destined for the trash can. We WILL have the chili soup I just defrosted for lunch with crackers.
Dinner is the first of 7 birthdays and will be some sirloin steak, mushrooms and onions with parsley, bag salad, and oven herbed potatoes and carrots with dill and garlic. Boston Cream Pie is the dessert.
