MAC N CHEESE AND CHICKEN NUGGETS


Grandma Becky's Homemade Mac-n-cheese



In sauce pan, melt 3 tbsp. butter, then add 3 Tbsp flour and a little salt/pepper.  Slowly pour in 2 1/4 cups milk -if you want it creamier, you can add a little half/half in place of some of the milk. (You can make this recipe as big as you want...for every 1 tbsp. butter, 1 tbsp. flour...you add 3/4 c milk..., etc.)   Stir until mixture thickens and comes to a boil for 1 min. 

butter and flour combined


stir until thickened and boils for 1 minute.

add cheese!!!  Sharp is best!



Pour creamy mixture over cooked noodles

You can mix up this recipe and add a few different cheese, you can add dry mustard powder if you like more flavor.  My kids and husband just like extra cheese on top and bacon!!
Then bake at 350 degrees for about 25-30 minutes.



Homemade Bisquick Chicken nuggets


Right off the box of bisquick.... 




dice chicken up so its ready...





Mix in ziplock bag 2/3 cup  Bisquick, 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, 1/2 tsp garlic, 1/2 tsp paprika.

set aside a bowl with 3 tbsp. melted butter
and a bowl with 1 egg beaten...

Roll chicken in egg then drop into bag (maybe 10 pieces at a time), zip it closed and shake, shake, shake!!  Then place onto pan to bake, repeat until all done, then take the bowl of butter and drizzle over all the chicken.
Bake at 450 degrees for 25-30 minutes... (the box said 15 minutes but the chicken was still very light in color and we like it baked crisp)

Chicken and mashed potatoes

 This is my husbands favorite chicken dinner.  Super easy to make and it's delicious!  One of those good comfort foods! 
I like to cook my chicken (usually frozen chicken tenderloins) in a pan of boiling water for at least an hour, if I have time. I am picky about my chicken so I like to then cut it apart and cut out any "gross" looking pieces.

Chicken Dinner
Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a pan over medium heat.
3 cups cooked chicken

1/2 cup flour
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Mix all together.

Place chicken in a bag and pour flour mixture in, seal bag, shake to coat chicken.

Cook chicken with mixture in pan until browned to your liking...I usually cook it for 15-20 minutes, turning it over to cook both sides.

Chicken Gravy

Melt 2 Tbsp butter in pan
add 2 Tbsp flour
cook for a minute or two
add 2 chicken boullion cubes and 1/2 tsp salt, dash of pepper
Add 1 1/2 cups milk.
Stir constantly until it comes to a boil for a minute.

Mashed potatoes

I bake my potatoes in the microwave first.  Then mash them with butter, salt, milk, and cream cheese!
