Easy Recipes For Those Who Like To Cook and Bake
I love this recipe because it is super easy and there is no need to boil the lasagna noodles before baking them! We had an impromptu cocktail party with friends and I just happened to make this earlier in the day. I served it for dinner and everyone was thrilled. It is so delicious and cheesy and the noodles are perfectly cooked. Try it for your next dinner party! You will love how easy it is!!

One of the greatest jobs of being a food blogger is having the opportunity to review cookbooks. It just so happens that I read cookbooks and blogs everyday and try out new recipes as often as I can. Someday’s they are spot on what I imagine the recipe to look and taste like. I may have to make it again, or twice or thrice, depending on the recipe.

Once in a great while I will make this per request of my family. I stress the words, once in a great while, but seriously, it is a creamy Italian Heaven. You can use Cream or half and half, I have tried this recipe with both and the results are delicious.
Serve with sauteed mushrooms and my recipe for Easy Pizza Puffs with pesto!
Cook the fettuccine noodles in boiling salted water following package directions.
Meanwhile, in a large sauté pan, bring the cream just to the boiling point. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly, for 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Drain the fettuccine well and add to the cream in the sauté pan. With the pan over medium heat, toss well and add butter pieces, nutmeg, salt, pepper, and 1 cup of Parmesan cheese.
Toss again while heating through.

I am so excited to share this wonderful Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken recipe with you! This chicken is melt in your mouth tender, crispy and garlicky! I have made Chicken Parmesan many times, with all of the messy steps: dipping the chicken in milk, then egg, then bread crumbs, but no more! This is so easy with two easy steps! Plus no frying in a skillet. It goes in the oven for just 30 minutes and is golden brown and crisp to perfection, my family was fighting over seconds!
Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup Panko and 1/2 cup dry Italian bread crumbs
2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
( I cut the chicken breasts in half, placed in a large ziploc bag and pounded them flat with a meat mallet~ get all of your stress out!!)
2 sliced tomatoes~garnish
6 basil leaves, cut into a chiffonade~garnish
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
In a bowl, blend the olive oil and garlic. In a separate bowl, mix the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, basil, and pepper. Dip each chicken breast in the oil mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, and top with any remaining bread crumb mixture.
Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. Add sliced tomatoes and basil chiffonade and serve!

I have a LOT of food blogger friends. Not just friends that you write to on Facebook and blogs, but friends that you wish you could hang out with if they lived closer.
I can’t wait for the day when we can all get together and share a meal and a big bottle of something!! These friends mean a lot to me, like a pen pal but in a group and way better!
So, Chris ( or as I fondly call her Pickles~ yes I fondly have nicknames for the friend’s I love) from Foodthoughtsofawannabechef Blog came up with a brilliant idea to have a food ingredient swap, a secret swap with our Foodie Group.
