Easy Chicken Casserole

3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (actually half breasts)
2 boxes Long grain and wild rice ( I use Farmhouse)
2 cups of broccoli (frozen or fresh)
1 large can of Cream of Chicken soup
3/4 cup of mayonaise
Juice of one lemon
2 cups grated cheddar (medium or sharp)
2 cups of breadcrumbs

Prepare rice as per directions on box
Cut chicken into bite size pieces, season with salt and pepper, cook on stovetop until almost done.
Cut Broccoli into bite size pieces, put in pan of water until heated through (frozen) or cooked (fresh).
Mix Mayo, soup and lemon together, season to taste. Once chicken has cooled off a bit mix in with soup/mayo blend.
Once ingredients are cooked, layer in large pyrex dish in this order, Rice, Broccoli, chicken/soup mixture, cheese and breadcrumbs.
Put in oven at 350 for about 30 minutes or until nice and brown, then let it cool off some.

If you like lemon, add more. If you dont like Broccoli substitute for other veggie such as Asparagus. You can use white or dark meat.
I use sharp cheddar, I wouldnt use xtra sharp though. You can also use more or less mayo.
Enjoy!

Hey that sounds pretty good!

Hey that sounds pretty good!

It is. It tastes good with or without salt (IMO). Maple and garlic gives it a nice balance. I put vegetable and canola oils as an alternative in case anyone might be allergic to peanuts. I hope you like it if you try it. By the way your recipe sounds tasty too. I'm trying to keep it to a low drool over here. Good luck.

...well I don't want you to be thirsty after all those gorgeous meals. I know you all know Mojito - but when visiting Trinidad, Cuba I actually prefer Canchanchara over Mojito.

There is also rum and lemon juice - but just a little bit different.
So that's how it goes:
You will need:
•   1.5 oz of raw rum (The most typical version of this drink uses a crude, unfinished rum called Aguardiente – but you will be good with Havana Club - Anejo 3 Años, which is light yellow (Aged 3 years)
•   0.5 oz of honey (approx. 2 tablespoons)
•   0.5 oz of lemon or lime juice
•   1 oz of water
•   2 oz of cracked ice (or less if you wish)


Pour the honey and the lemon juice into the glass and stir until the honey has dissolved. Add the rum and stir a bit than add the ice and the water and stir.



Enjoy,

Appetizer:
 Cut up two links of Kielbasa into bite size pieces add two jars of guava jelly, four jars of Chili sauce, place in crockpot. Low temp if you will not be eating till three or four hours later, high if you wish to consume within two hours or less.

Main Dish:
Groundnut soup.
Another crockpot meal.

Place medium size jar of natural peanut butter, two sliced onions, two jars of butter beans, large can of whole tomatoes (break these up), and a quarter cup palm oil (may use other oils in place of ).  Whole cooked chicken, not skin or bones, broken up to bite size pieces. Salt to your liking, either flake pepper or hot whole pepper to your liking. This dish is normally prepared very spicy, but may be toned down to a "hot" level that is more acceptable to other diners.

Heat setting may be either high or low depending on hour long quickly you wish to consume it. This dish can prepared prior to leaving for work on low and is ready to eat in early evening.

This is a sauce and intended to be placed on top of rice. Jasmine rice is a nice choice for this sauce. Can work as a topping for boiled cassava root or even potatoes.
