The Hardest Part of this blog....

So when I started this blog, it wasn't coming up with new recipes to share, or telling you the inspirations the meal was created from.  It was the fact I never measure a damn thing unless I am baking..  And since my Sister Wife Snow is the baking wife and I'm the bacon wife (long story peoples) I never have really needed to measure anything when I cook.  I just judge by taste, consistency and whatnot.  Then I decided to make this and now I have to give you measurements.  So without further ado here is my first actual recipe posting attempt and hopefully it turns out.

Tonight's dinner  was actually inspired from a pic of something I saw waiting in a grocery store check out line on one of those over priced cooking mags you see in the check out lane. 

Its called Cheesey Chicken Surprise

  Ingredients:


3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 box (about half a pound) of Penni Noodles
1/2 block of Velveta cubed (I hate the stuff except for this meal)
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 cup milk

Crunchy topping
 1 Box Stove Top
1/2 cup melted butter

Preheat Oven to 375

Add Pasta to boiling water

While pasta is cooking grill up chicken breasts using your favorite  seasoning (I prefer something with a little kick)  then cut up chicken into small bite sized cubes.

In a sauce pan add the milk and cubed velveta and stir until velveta is completely melted. 
Stir in sour cream and cheddar cheese is completely blended.

Drain Noodles and pour back into pan.  Stir in the cheese sauce until fully blended and add chicken

Crunchy topping:
Take 1 box of stove top and grind with a food processor or use a rolling pin and a freezer bag until its ground down. 

Microwave 1/2 cup butter until melted and combine with stovetop until it makes a nice topping.

Pour Noodles into a casserole dish and cover with stovetop topping and cook at 375 for about 30 minutes.

This meal will serve 6-8 adults, and I'm sure you can cut the calorie count down by substituting the butter with some home water, or replacing the sour cream with some cottage cheese.  But this is a fantastically rich and creamy meal that even my two year old loves eating.
