Holly's Stew

You will need butter, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, boneless skinless chicken tenders and cooked rice. Place 3 tablespoons of butter in large skillet and heat to medium/high heat. While pan is warming, in a small bowl combine 4 teaspoons garlic powder, 2 teaspoons onion powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt. Place 8 boneless, skinless chicken tenders in a large bag.  Pour in your seasoning mixture, blow air into the bag, twist and shake it well to coat your chicken. Once you butter is all melted and bubbling a bit add your chicken.  Cook about 7 minutes on each side.  It is ok to move the chicken around while it is cooking but wait to flip till it is done on that side. Chicken have the nice golden brown color when you are ready to flip. Chicken will be a little crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. Serve with rice. Enjoy!!

You will need Karo syrup, butter, brown sugar, french bread, eggs, vanilla, milk and cinnamon. In a small sauce pan cook at low/medium heat; 1 stick of butter, 1 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons light Karo/corn syrup.  Stirring occasionally till starts to bubble.  While the mixture is cooking, cut up about 3/4 of loaf of french bread, about 1 inch thick slices.  Once your mixture is bubbling pour into a 9x13, make sure to spray with cooking spray first. Put as much bread as you can into the pan.  As you can see you will cut up some of your slices into little pieces to fit into the little crevices, pack it full!  Whisk together 5 eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/2 cup milk.  Slowly pour you mixture over your bread. Next melt one stick of butter and drizzle that over the top. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Cover and place in fridge overnight or for at least 8 hours. When ready to bake, uncover and bak...

You will need cream cheese, sour cream, taco seasoning, taco sauce, lettuce, cheese and tomatoes. Start by combining 8oz sour cream, 8oz cream cheese (softened) and 1-1.24oz packet of taco seasoning.  You will have some small lumps of the cream cheese, that is ok. Spread evenly as possible into a 9x13 container, you can use plastic like I have or you can use a glass or metal pan.  Spread a thing layer of taco sauce or you can even you salsa.  I have done it both ways and it is great either way! Next a layer of shredded lettuce and then a layer of chopped up tomatoes- you do not have to de-seed the tomato if you do not want to.  And then a layer of finely shredded cheddar cheese. Serve with Nacho Cheese Doritos. You can mix this dip up by adding a layer of cooked and cooled ground beef, some onions, black olives or other veggies. Enjoy!!
