Bread Bowls

From Sarah Cone

• 1 pkg active dry yeast
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 3/4 cups warm water (105F to 115F)
• 3 cups Redued Fat Bisquick mix

Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water in large bowl. Stir in Bisquick mix until dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball. Turn dough onto surface lightly dusted with Bisquick mix, gently roll in Bisquick mix to coat. Knead 1 min or until smooth. Cover and let rise 10 min.


Heat oven to 275F. Grease outside of five 10oz. custard cups. Place cups upside down on large ungreased cookie sheet. Divide dough into 5 equal parts. Pat or roll each part into 7in circles. Shape circles over outside of custard cups. (Do not curl dough under edges of cups)

Bake 15-18min or until golden brown. Tap custard cups to loosen bread bowls. Cool 3min; carefully lift bread bowls off custard cups. (Custard cups and bread will be hot). Cool bread bowls upright on wire rack. Fill bowls as desired.

Quick Chicken Pasta Salad

I wanted to make a quick meal for myself and use leftovers in the fridge and this turned out to be a wonderful meal. Could also be used for a great side dish for a party or get together. Also so inexpensive too! 


From Sarah Cone
Prep: 5min.
Total Time: 15min.

• 1 pkg. Suddenly Salad Mix (got my 2pk at Dollar Tree...whoo hoo 50cents each)
  
• 3 chicken breasts
  
• 3 celery sticks
  
• Parmesan Cheese (optional)
  

Cook Suddenly Salad as directed on box. Meanwhile in saucepan cook the chicken breasts until fully cooked through. Cut into bite-size peices and set aside.

Chop the celery, not too small.

In the bowl you prepared the Suddenly Salad pasta mix, per directions on the box add in the celery and chicken and mix well. Then add in Parmesan Cheese if desired.

*Another alternative that I like better is to make it, then refrigerate overnight. Then heat up in the microwave and it tastes much better in my opinion.

Juicy Chicken

From Sarah Cone
Prep:10 min.
Total Time: 45min.

• 4 chicken breasts
  
• 1/2 onion sliced
• Sarah's Seasoning
• Sarah's Seasoning With a Kick
• 1 tbsp. cilantro
• 1/2 cup apple juice
• 1/2 cup water
• olive oil
  

Slightly coat bottom of saute pan with olive oil. Add onion and chicken over medium heat. Lightly coat the chicken with Sarah's Seasoning Original, be sure to season both sides of the chicken.

Cook for 5 min. Add cilantro, apple juice and bring to a boil. Cover and cook fro 5 min.

Uncover and cook chicken until brown and thoroughly cooked through, be sure to reduce heat. The onions will start to caramelize, so this is when you need to add the water. Cover and continue cooking, flipping chicken occasionally, this will allow the juices to penetrate the chicken.

Serve over pasta or rice.
