Dinners for February 21-25


Hey everyone! Hope you've had a great week so far. Here are my dinner plans for this week.

Meals:
1- Chicken Spaghetti
2- Kung Pao Chicken
3- Seared Garlic Mojo Fish Fillets, Asparagus, and Rice
4- Anti-Ramen Noodles
5- Tacos

Recipes:

Chicken Spaghetti
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
12 ounces spaghetti
1 small onion, diced
1 green pepper, diced
1 can Rotel
2 cups shredded cheddar
1 can cream of chicken soup
½ cup chicken stock
Salt and pepper to taste

Bake chicken breasts for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees until cooked through. Allow to cool, and finely chop the chicken in a food processor. Cook noodles according to package instructions. Sauté onions and green peppers until they are tender. Mix noodles, chicken, onions, peppers, cream of chicken soup, Rotel, chicken stock, 1 cup shredded cheddar, and salt and pepper together. Transfer to a 9x13 casserole dish, and cover loosely with foil. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes until it bubbles around the edges. Remove from the oven and top with the remaining cheddar. Continue baking for about 5 more minutes.

Kung Pao Chicken

Seared Garlic Mojo Fish Fillets

Asparagus
Asparagus, 1 bunch
Garlic Mojo, 2 tablespoons
Salt and pepper to taste

Clean and trim asparagus. Place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the garlic mojo, and season with salt and pepper.

Rice 
I just use minute rice. Sometimes I add a couple tablespoons of garlic mojo to the rice for some extra flavor.

Tacos
1 pound ground beef (0r ground chicken)
1 packet taco seasoning
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup salsa
Lettuce, chopped
Tomato, diced
Shredded cheddar
Tortillas

Brown the beef with the onion and garlic. Drain. Transfer back into the pan, and add taco seasoning, ½ cup water, ½ cup salsa. Stir and simmer at low heat for about 5 minutes. Serve in tortillas with salsa, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheddar.
