Loretta is letting me post this evening and I couldn't be happier! That's because I made dinner for her and I wanted to tell you all about it.
It ain't much, but it was mighty tasty since we both like herbs. I saw this recipe in one of Loretta's cook books, and thought I would try it out. If she was writing this, I know she would tell you about the mistakes and problems I had, but I'm gonna tell you how good it turned out. So, here is my herb stuffed chicken breast and all the trimmings. Click on the picture to enlarge.
This is Loretta's plate, she might eat some of it, but I doubt if she will eat it all. I ain't showing you mine because I have one of those hefty he-man plates! Loretta laughs every time I fix a plate. Heeeeheee I do too!
I seasoned the breast with the herbs, salt, pepper, then slit them for the stuffing. That was made from a bag of stuffing she had, chicken broth and some added vegetables, then stuffed inside the breast. I put a toothpick in the meat to hold it in there. Hate to sound like brag, but this dinner was downright good. Ashley hung in the kitchen and he was my taster. If he ate it, then it had to be good, I guarantee! Heeeehee
Loretta made this fruit salad for me 20 years ago and I fell in love with it. She stopped making it, so I had to learn how. Once I did, I keep a bowl in the icebox for my late night snack. That's what you have to do guys!
Easy salad to make, can of fruit cocktail, coconut, pecans, bananas, and cool whip. This is her salad. She tried to get a shot of mine, but I went out on the porch to eat it, yep, it was huge too. Heeeeheee!
I don't care, i'm a big man and if you happy I say, show it! Yes sir, that ole' gal has made me a happy man and I wouldn't have it any other way. I had to learn how to deal with her and that blame shot gun, she can scatter them buck shot too, but I can handle it! Can't do nothin' else, heeeeheeee!
Ya'll be good to each other. Have a good relaxing evening and to the men folks out there, like me, get ready to hit the pavement tomorrow morning. Ya'll be careful, ya' hear! Well, I hope you enjoyed my jawing, so I'm gonna close now!
Peace to you All,
James
Looks good to me. I love it when my husband does the cooking. He really isn't very good at it though, hah.
ReplyDeleteJames, you are a real sweetie pie. I am impressed with your dinner. Looks great. I'm sure it tasted great, too. Loretta's a real lucky gal! Hello, Loretta.
ReplyDeleteLooks and sounds like a yummy dinner...and the best part would be that she didn't have to cook it!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than when someone else cooks a meal for you. :0)

ReplyDeleteYOu did good, James!!!! Who doesn't love it, when someone cooks for them?
ReplyDeleteI never liked to cook. And when my husband semi-retired, he took it over. He LIKES to cook. Win! Win! :-)
Yes, I still bake though...
