   Here are a few E-Z recipes you might want to try. Good Luck & enjoy.

   COLA CHICKEN

   4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
   > > 1 cup catsup
   > > 1 12oz. can cola (pepsi, coke, etc.)
   > >
   Put chicken in a non-stick pan. Mix together catsup and cola, pour over chicken.
   Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and cook 45 minutes.
   (turning chicken a few times, while cooking…to prevent from
   sticking to pan)
   Uncover, turn up the heat and continue to cook until the sauce becomes
   thick and adheres to the chicken.
   It turns into the most incredible BBQ sauce. Yummmm!

   You can double the recipe and use more pieces of
   chicken….wings…would be ideal…add some hot sauce….presto "Hot
   Wings"! Not tried this, yet.

   I have used Ribs, just as good.

   Fixed chicken wings, (using the above recipe) but…I
   added the spices from a MILD (I don’t care for "HOT") Buffalo
   Wings packet…(the kind you get to bake in the oven)…..I thought it
   was really good…..(but you/I can’t find a ‘bad’ way to fix chicken).

   CRUNCHY ONION CHICKEN

   1 1/3 cups French’s Original French Fried Onions
   4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
   1 egg, beaten

   LIGHTLY CRUSH:

   Onions in a plastic bag.

   DIP:
   Chicken in egg

   COVER:
   With onion crumbs, press firmly to adhere to chicken.

   BAKE:
   Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
   Place chicken on lightly greased baking pan.
   Sprinkle with additional onion crumbs, if desired.
   Bake for 20 minutes or until no longer pink in center.

   POOR MAN’S SWISS STEAK
   Mix: 1 lb. hamburger
   1 cup cornflakes
   salt & pepper to taste
   small amount dices onion
   Spread in a square baking pan.

   Pour: 1 can mushroom soup
   1 can water
   (combine together, first)
   Pour over meat mixture.
   Bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees.

   CHILLI DOG CASSEROLE
   1 pkg. (8) hot dog buns
   1 pkg. (8) hot dogs (use more if you like)
   1 can Chilli (15 oz. without beans, use more if you want)
   1 small onion (chopped)
   2 cups shredded cheese
   mustard

   DIRECTIONS: Pre-heat oven 350 degrees
   In a 9" x 13" baking pan, break up hot dog buns (bite size) and spread in pan.
   Cut up hot dogs (about 1/2" size) spread over buns.
   Spoon/spred chilli over hot dog/buns.
   Sprinkle onions over all.
   Squirt mustard over entire mixture (don’t spread…just make a few lines both ways across mixture)
   Cover with shredded cheese.
   Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly.
   (Hint: If using extra hot dogs & chilli, don’t add extra buns.)

   POT ROAST
   Your choice of beef (to fit crock-pot)
   1 pkg. dry Ranch dressing mix
   1 pkg. dry Italian dressing mix
   1 pkg. dry Brown Gravy mix
   1 cup water
   Put beef in pot.
   Mix together all the dry mixes….then add water …pour over meat and cover & cook on high 4-6 hours.
   Until meat is tender.
   The first time I mad it I didn’t have the Italian Dressing mix….so I added a pkg. of Onion Soup Mix….I have to say I liked that better.
   If you use more water you might want to add more Brown Gravy mix….to make a thicker sauce. Was gonna add potatoes and carrots…but never got around to it.

   rolling
   into balls and dipping in a chocolate coating….sounds good to
   me.)

   I’ve doubled all the above recipes. The Marshmallow Nougat
   recipe…doubled and added a container of white frosting (had an
   extra one….so thought….why not!)

   I use a double boiler..(prefer the double
   boiler)…add chips in first …then rest of
   ingredients…..saving
   nuts and flavorings for last.
