"PEACHY CHICKEN"

When I was pregnant, my daughter's Grandma Shari gave me all her son's favorite recipes. This is one of our all time favorites, it's cheap, easy & can be doctored to your liking.

"Peachy Chicken"
8 chicken breasts or thighs
2 C instant rice
1 1/2 T soy sauce
5 T butter
1 can sliced peaches
Coconut
Powdered ginger

Add rice & soy sauce to 2 C boiling water, set aside, covered.
Brown chicken in butter, scraping bits in pan.
Spread rice in casserole dish, top with chicken & pour butter & bits over chicken & rice.
Cover & bake at 400 for 45-60 mins.
Uncover & arrange peaches on top, sprinkle with coconut & ginger.
Broil on middle rack for a few minutes, watch so it doesn't burn.
Serves 4-6

GO GRIZ!!!

This is how we do football!


Gnocchi "mac & cheese" with kale.

I didn't have any fancy cheese, so I just used what was in the fridge. Turned out so yummy. Can't wait to tweak the recipe to my liking.
