Chicken Parmesan

I have been wanting to make this for a long time. I love Chicken Parmesan at Applebee's and I found this recipe and just had to try it. It takes about 15 min to prepare and another 30 min to cook. So it is a quick and easy recipe to remind you family you are SuperMom.

You will need...

1/2 Cup Seasoned Bread Crumbs

3 Tablespoon Parmesan Cheese

4 to  6 Chicken Brests

1 Egg Braten

2 Tablespoon Margarine

1 Can Tomato Sauce

1/4 Teaspoon Dried Basil

1/8 Teaspoon Garlic

1/2 Cup Mozzarella Cheese

Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees. Mix crumbs with 1 Tablespoon Parmesan in a shallow dish. Dip the chicken into beaten egg. Roll in crumbs mixture to coat.

Melt margarine in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken. Cook chicken turning only once to keep the breadcrumbs from coming off of the chicken. Cook approximately 5 min. When the chicken is golden brown place it in a lightly greased baking sheet.

Add tomato sauce, basil, and garlic powder to the skillet that you just cooked the chicken in. Simmer for about 5 min or until the sauce slightly thickens.

Now spoon the sauce over the chicken.

Sprinkle with Mozzarella and remaining Parmesan.

Bake for 30 min.

The Chicken smells great when it comes out of the oven and your family wont need much coaxing to come to the dinner table.

I served this dish with spagetti noodles and Garlic Bread. Use the leftover sauce with the noodles. My kids and husband loved it. It will be a recipe that we will make again for sure. I hope your family loves it as much as mine did. As always if you try it please let me know if you like it in the comments below.

I had to take a little vacation from the Blog

I have to apologize to all my blog followers. It has been a very long time since the last post. It has almost been four months! In my defense I have a have had a really good excuse. Baby number three has really made finding free time a challenge. It has defiantly been hard to adjust to this new little bundel of joy. I think having a third child was so much harder than having two. Carter is such a sweet little guy but he just loves to be held. He will sleep the day away as long as he is in my arms, but that makes it hard to accomplish anything. I just love to hold him, but I also like to have a clean house and to get things organized. I have just had to tell myself that Carter will only be at this stage once and I just need to enjoy every second of it. Even if that means I need to let a few things in life slide. Unfortunately one of those things has been my blog. I have been taking a lot of heat lately from family, friends, and even some strangers in Walmart that have been asking me when I will be returning to the blog. Well wait no longer I am back and promise that I will be posting regularly once again, and have a whole lot of new easy recipes to share. I want to thank you all that follow the blog and show me support. You are the best!

Baby Carter had a little fever today

Brandon's Mom and Dad came to see us and brought Kaison. I was so glad to see Kai. I am with him all day long and being away from him the past two days has been hard. I really miss him. It also gave Kai a chance to be close to Carter and not have Peyton hogging him. She was so excited yesterday and didn't want to share him. She held him almost the while time she was at the hospital yesterday. While they were visiting we discovered Carter had a little fever today. They had to take him out of our room and put a little iv in his hand to do some blood work and find out what is going on. I had a little melt down and had a good cry. I am a little emotional right now. I just want to protect him and never have to see him sick or hurt. I am so excited to be able to take him home to our new house and have him in his own room. The thought of having to have him stay in the hospital longer was just so hard. I am just praying everything is okay. After they took some blood his temp came down and they brought he back to me. It was so hard to have him in the nursery even for the hour it took. I just love him so much. It is amazing how empty you feel when they are not with you.

While we were writing this post the nurse came in and told us all of his initial blood work looked normal. So I feel much better! Now grandma and grandpa just came back with Kai and Peyton so I will close for now and spend some time with my other little Angels.
