4 Ways to Do Chicken...Baked!

Baked Chicken Parmesan

We love chicken!  And we hope you do to.  But...it is easy to run out of fresh ideas for preparing and serving that ever-so-reliable tasty fowl.  With Spring in full swing (pardon the rhyme) and everyone getting busier by the minute, we've gathered four new chicken recipes to add to your dinner menu.

Baked Ranch Chicken

Our Baked Chicken Parmesan and Baked Ranch Chicken are simple and easy to prepare.  Plus, they come out of the oven smelling delicious and tasting twice as good as they smell - a nice way to call the family to the dinner table!

Baked Crusty Curried Chicken

The Baked Crusty Curried Chicken is a unique recipe to add to your chicken menu, and bakes up with a savory curried kick.  But since not everyone is up for this Indian spice combination, we've also included a nice Baked Lemon Chicken recipe too!

Baked Lemon Chicken

For the milder palette, the Baked Lemon Chicken recipe will do in a pinch.  The lemon gives the chicken a fresh zingy taste without being too spicy.  And, if you are doing battle against finicky eaters (those little kiddos who haven't learned to embrace new tastes) the Baked Lemon Chicken is a nice way to entice their taste buds!

Enjoy these four Baked Chicken recipes.  We love feedback and photos, so be sure to send us some!

Baked Goodies & Their Friends!

Baked Donut Muffin

Today seemed like a good day to take a break, and enjoy all things baked!  Leading the parade of baked goodies is our very own Baked Donut Muffins...They are delicious!

Baked Pretzels

After muffins must come...pretzels, a carb-packed salty snack that will tingle your taste buds!

Basic Biscuits

Not to be undone by less popular baked goodies, our basic biscuit recipe is reliable, repeatable, and yummy!

Apple Jelly Recipe

I also thought it would be nice to include some accessories for our baked goodies, lest they feel too plain or just plain bare!  Our apple jelly recipe is a nice way to say "thank you" or hand out as a parting gift at your next get-together.

Date Jam

And for a little spice, try our date jam recipes.  Dates are a succulent way to celebrate more exotic fruits, so why not turn them into jam to enjoy all year?  Enjoy our baked blog post!

Easter Dinner Ideas!

Buttermilk Rolls

With Easter just a few days away, have you thought about your menu?  We have some ideas to simplify Easter dinner preparations, whether you are entertaining a crowd or small group of friends.  All you have to do is decide on ham or...ham!

Marinated Noodle Salad

Not to be outdone by it's more popular sister dish Macaroni Salad, this Marinated Noodle Salad is a fresh take on a traditional notion that Easter dinner requires a side dish made with pasta!  (Who am I to argue with tradition?  I happen to love pasta salad in any form it takes.)  

Ham & Potato Casserole

Because we know you just can't ever have enough ham or potatoes for Easter dinner, we included a nice casserole in our menu list that covers both!  This casserole is no slouch - easy to make, easy to bake!

Coconut Upside Down Cake

And lest we forget an appealing dessert to finish off your Easter dinner, we give you our Coconut Upside Down Cake, which we are absolutely nutty about.  Bake one and you will see why!  You should have everything you need to create a fabulous Easter dinner!  Now go, and buy that ham!
