Recipe of the Day/Maybe?

So I don't mind picking up the Recipe of the Day responsibility while Kristen is busy. I have a very large computer database of recipes. I can post a dinner recipe each day during the week and a desert one on the weekends.

Let me know if that's okay?

In the meantime here's one of my favorite easy ones:

Super-Easy Chicken Manicotti

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 7
Preparation Time :0:20
Categories : Poultry

1 jar tomato sauce -- (26 to 30 ounces)
3/4 cup water
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders
14 manicotti -- uncooked, 8 ozs
2 cups mozzarella cheese -- shredded, 8 oz
Chopped fresh basil leaves -- if desired

Heat oven to 350°. Mix pasta sauce and water in medium bowl. Spread
about one-third of the pasta sauce mixture in ungreased rectangular baking
dish, 13x9x2 inches.

Sprinkle garlic salt on chicken. Insert chicken into uncooked manicotti
shells, stuffing from each end of shell to fill if necessary. Place shells
on pasta sauce in baking dish. Pour remaining pasta sauce evenly over
shells, covering completely.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake about 1 hour or until shells are tender.
Sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered about 5 minutes or until cheese is
melted. Sprinkle with basil.

I'll even throw in an extra one for the first day, it's a great side dish (not to have with the pasta though):

Homemade Rice and Roni
From Paula Deen
Servings: 2
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Start to finish: 35 minutes

Categories: Side Dishes

Source: Food Network

1/2 tablespoon oil
1/4 pound pasta, vermicelli or spaghetti
1/2 cup long grain rice
1/2 small onion, chopped
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves, or 1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 cup chicken or beef broth


1. Begin by placing the oil in a pot and breaking the dried noodles into 1/2 to 1-inch pieces.

2. Turn on the heat and stir the noodles in the oil until they begin to brown slightly.

3. Add the rice, onion, parsley, and broth. Stir mixture, cover tightly, and cook as you would regular rice, approximately 20 minutes.

4. Fluff rice with a fork and serve.

Never would have thought about putting chicken in Manicotti. I have to try this - sounds so yummy!
