Pretzel Parmesan Chicken Breast

Today I wanted to make something special for my husband and use what we already have at home. He is NOT a bird man, he is all about COW, ground beef, steaks... but sometimes the bird just HAS to win and this was a day for bird!

Ingredients:

2 Chicken Breast
2 c. crushed pretzels
1 tsp. Pink Salt
1 tsp. black pepper
2 tsp. ground mustard
3 tsp. crushed red pepper
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese (the kind that you use to sprinkle over spaghetti)

Turn the oven on to 350 degrees. Add aluminum foil to a cookie sheet and spray with Pam Olive Oil. Add pretzels to a food processor to get 2 cups of crushed pretzels, then add salt, pepper, ground mustard, and crushed red pepper and blend well. Then put ingredients into a bowl and cover chicken breasts. Add the chicken to the cookie sheet and top with cheese. Cook chicken for 45 minutes.



Mouth Watering Meat Loaf with Dill Red Potatoes

Monday while I was at work, I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be nice if your husband came home to a meal?" So, after work I went to the store, used his card, and picked up food for dinner. Now, we both DO NOT LIKE MEAT LOAF! Now it could have been how it was cooked or what was used, whatever it was does not matter anymore because we absolutely love this recipe! If you never liked meat loaf YOU GOT TO TRY THIS! My husband, who is extremely picky about food said he would be willing to eat this three days in a row!

Meat Loaf
2 pounds of 93/7 ground beef
2 eggs
3/4 c. crushed crackers
3/4 c. ketchup
1/3 c. water
1 packet Lipton Secrets Onion
2 cloves of garlic (minced)

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients together well in a bowl. Put the mixture into a meatloaf pan 13x9 preferably and cook for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. You can drain the excess grease into the garbage or a safe container, but not down the sink.

Dill Red Potatoes
7 Medium Red Potatoes
4 cloves of garlic (minced)
3 tsp hymilain salt
3 tsp black pepper
3 tsp butter
1/2 c. cream cheese
1/4 c. dried dill

Clean the potatoes and cut out the eyes, cut the potatoes in quarters and boil for 30 minutes or until you can easily put a fork in the potatoes. Remove the potatoes from the pot with a slated spoon into a bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients along with a 1/4 c. of water the potatoes were boiled in and mash until all ingredients are mixed well.

Enjoy!!!!

I don't have any pictures because we ate this meal!
