What's For Dinner?

[lizzie bargain]

I have leftover pasta defrosting for tomorrow as my husband is having a hip replacement so the day will be busy enough.

Tried something new using whatever I could find in the kitchen.

Tonight I took four chicken breasts and cut each one into three long strips like chicken tenders. Then I mixed it with olive oil and hot Texan spice, 2 tbsp of fresh garlic, 4 tbsp of Korean spicy red pepper paste, and then I added seasoned Parmesan breadcrumbs. I made them in the air fryer and they came out absolutely amazing. I used Caesar dressing as a dip for them.

@mulock ! You must love the hot and spicy eh? The chicken inventions you made sounded very good, Air Fryers are like Magic.
I did something quite silly about 20 minutes ago. I was layering the items into a casserole for the oven. A Mac 'N Cheese using
both cheddar and some Cheez Whiz plopped around on the cooked macaroni. I reach up for the Corn Flakes to place on top and
, I had none.
So I put Frosted Flakes on it. Dear God, I hope it doesn't turn out weird.

Sounds a little weird to me WOB! I will be picking up some Chinese food as I think we deserve a little treat. Nothing extravagant- just some beef with broccoli and steamed rice.
Even though my husband's surgery cost his PT annual salary so nice to see him in less pain-which will get better every day. Besides I think he would have had to stop working if we didn't go private for his hip-and he would really like to go back to work in the fall. He should be good as new by then.

The casserole turned out very delicious! ( Whew! ) Now I'm going to make a small batch of a white sauce, melt
more cheddar into it and mix it all through the cooked casserole because I want it to be MORE creamy/saucy.
There's always a fix. So relieved that those sweet flakes never affected the taste one way or another.

Papa Johns tonight.
