Bacon wrapped chicken


This is an exceptionally easy recipe to prepare but looks and tastes great. Start with 5 oz lean chicken breasts, rub them with your favorite choice of dry seasonings and wrap each filet with two slices of bacon.  Bake them in a 400 degree oven for 40 - 45 minutes and serve. The bottoms will be quite greasy so I like to place them first on a few folded paper towels on a paper plate to drain.

Nantucket Pie


Nantucket pie is great all year around but especially festive for Autumn through the Holidays. This recipe was given to me by my friend Benita who brought it to a post-Christmas Julbord festival. It is easy to make and was a big hit at our event.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups chopped cranberries
  • 1-1/2 cut chopped pecans
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cup flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1-1/2 sticks melted butter
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Lightly grease a deep pie dish with non-fat cooking spray. Mix the flour, sugar, eggs, melted butter, salt and almond extract. Spread the cranberries and pecans in pie dish and sprinkle the sugar over the top, then pour the mixture prepared above over the top.

Bake 30 - 40 minutes.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

"There are four unbroken rules when it comes to Thanksgiving: there must be turkey and dressing, cranberries, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie.”
