Life has been so busy lately that it’s hard to believe it’s been 10 days since my last post. WOW! I’m still on track with my weight loss efforts though, so no worries there. I’ve just been busy.
Part of that included going over to a friend’s house on Saturday night to lend her a hand. She’s recovering from recent knee surgery and her husband was out of town. I helped her with a couple of chores around the house her husband normally takes care of when he’s home. I also offered to cook dinner for us and made enough to give her leftovers to carry her over until her husband is back home tomorrow. I made Betty Crocker’s Healthified Chicken Tortilla Casserole. It was so tasty! This recipe is definitely a keeper!
From start to finish, this recipe took me about 90 minutes to make since I had to start by cooking the chicken since the recipe calls for 2.5 cups of cooked chicken. There are definitely a couple of ways you could make this dinner more quickly. You could use leftover chicken from another meal, or you could purchase a rotisserie chicken at the supermarket.
In the category of she shouldn’ve have, Nancy gave me a lovely gift for coming over and helping her out. She gave me a bottle of perfume and matching lotion from Crabtree & Evelyn. It smells so lovely. Thanks, Nancy!
Lastly, I just wanted to take a minute to send out a big thanks to Tara over at taraburner.com and Erin at Baker’s Breakfast Cookies. I recently won a giveaway on Tara’s site for a sampler pack and it arrived today. I’ve already sampled the oatmeal raisin mini cookie and it was deee-lish! I can’t wait to try the other items, too.
Well, that’s it from me for now. Until next time …
