Reader Latonia sent me this recipe to share with everyone. This sounds so yummy! It is a great way to us up some of your kids Halloween candy.
“Hi Cindy,
A friend of mine made a yummy dessert the other day while we were scrapbooking. I thought I would share it with you and all the others since we always have a ton of crescent deals and now all the candy bar deals.”
4 Milky Way miniature candy bars (or Snickers) or one regular sized bar
Heat oven to 375°C.
Separate dough into 8 triangles. Cut each candy bar in half crosswise. Place one candy piece on shortest side of each triangle. Roll up, starting at the shortest side and roll to opposite side. Pinch edges of dough to seal. Place rolls on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375°F for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
I am a huge fan of bulk cooking. I have found that this method of cooking not only saves time on busy nights but also a lot of money. If done the right way. More on that later.
Here is the recipe. (I did change the amount of the ingredient’s listed to work for only 4 chicken breasts.)
Ingredient’s
6 boneless chicken breast
10oz Monterey Jack Cheese with jalapenos
4 eggs
1/4 cup salsa
1/4 t salt
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 t chili powder
2 t ground cumin
1 1/2 t garlic salt
1/2 t dried oregano
Instructions
Cut a horizontal slit into each chicken breast. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
Put a piece of cheese into each slit. (I used cheese sticks and they worked perfectly or you could slice your own cheese.)
You may need to use a toothpick to secure the pocket.
A big thanks to reader Danielle Bowling for submitting this weeks bulk cooking recipe. I can not wait to try them.
