Rocky

  Rocky was napping this afternoon and making some strange noises so I got it on my camera. Not very long but it was fun getting it.


At the doctor's office

   I've been fighting with Blogger trying to get text and a video on this same posting and I promise I will win. Don't know why things have to be so complicated at times.


   Beth got up this morning complaining of being dizzy and said it happens to her at work as well. Dr. Langley gave her an immediate diagnosis. I told her that she may be having reactions from not taking good care of herself. Namely eating some scrambled eggs when she gets up and then not eating again until she gets home in the evening. Just not eating enough or getting the proper nutrients in her diet. They took blood and will be testing it but told her to eat something every 2 to 3 hours and take multivitamins. I love it when a plan comes together.

Finger Licking Good, almost no cleanup



Asian Chicken Tenders Baked in Foil Pouches


Ingredients:
Boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into nuggets
Soy Sauce
Corn Starch
Hoisin Sauce
Brown Sugar
Grated Ginger
Minced Garlic

Ingredients may vary depending on how much chicken you need to cook. I had about 1 lb. In a bowl I put 1/2 cup of corn starch, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup Hoisin sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 Tbl grated ginger and 1 Tsp of minced garlic and stirred together. Add the chicken nuggets and toss to completely coat all the pieces. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

I used 18 inch aluminum foil & tore off a piece about the same width. Spoon the chicken along with some of the sauce into the center of the foil. Bring up two sides to meet and fold downward being careful not to allow liquid to spill out the ends. Then fold in the ends toward the center sealing the pouch. Repeat for as many pouches as is needed. Place on a large enough pan to hold them all and put into a 400 degree oven for 30 minutes. 

Serve with a flavorful rice like Basmati. 

You could add veggies to the pouch like broccoli, carrots, green onions, be creative.

Remember, all you have to wash is the bowl and throw away the foil. I love that part.  Enjoy.
