Chicken Salad Stuff Shells Recipe


Hi Doll's
Welcome Back!!!

I am back with another rocking twist to one of my favorite's, and to no surprise it's a pasta dish!! you all thought I was kidding when I said "my love for pasta runs deep." Today we are going to be making chicken salad stuff shells now does that not sound delish.
This dish is perfect for a quick lunch or a picnic or if you want to get lil crazy you can also eat it with Your hands, Now is that not awesome or what.
The more I keep blabing the more I want to get making it, So let's begin.

Things your going to Need  

-bowl for mixing 
- pot for cooking the noodles 
-1 box of jumbo pasta shells 
- 2 cups of chicken chopped ( I used a rotisserie Chicken )
-1 cup of celery chopped
-1 cup of seedless red grapes cut in half 
-1 cup of Red onion diced  
-1/2 tsp of salt 
-1 TBS of lemon Juice 
-1/2 cup of mayonnaise ( you may need more if needed )
- Course Parmesan cheese 

Directions 

Grab a Large Cooking pot and fill with water, add some salt  and bring it to a boil 


Add the the box of jumbo pasta shells and cook for about 8 minutes


while that is cooking grab your chicken, you can make the chicken yourself Or you can do what I do and go to the store and buy one off the rotisserie. Then you want to cut it into cubes and put that in your mixing Bowl.



 next take the red seedless Grapes and give them a rinse. Cut them in half  and place them in the bowl.



 Grab 2 stalks of celery which should give you 1 cup but you may need more. Give them a good rinse and you want to cut them and place into the bowl.



 Now Grab 1 cup of Red onion diced and put into the bowl 


 By Now the Pasta noodles should be finished so you want to drain them and run them under cold water and then place into the fridge to cool down. 


Now take 1 TBS of Lemon Juice and 1/2 tsp of salt and pour it into your bowl.


Take 1/2 Cup Of mayonnaise and plop it into your bowl. you may need more depending on your taste.



Now Mix it together really well and place this in the fridge to get cooled. 


Once everything is cooled you may need to add more mayonnaise but that's totally up to you. Grab your shell and carefully spread a thin layer of  mayonnaise inside then scoop some chicken salad 
and place it in your shell and then place on a dish. 
you do this till all the shells are stuffed.


When that all finished  sprinkle some course Parmesan Cheese on top 
and get ready to enjoy every bite.


Well that's it dolls I hope you enjoyed this easy and fun twist just as much as I do. 
let me know if you give this a try. What pasta dish have you made lately?  I just have to know.

Eating alone is never fun.

Over the holidays I had visit my Family

Fried Kielbasa and vegetables Recipe

Hi Dolls,
Have I got a quick and tasty recipe 
That your going to plotz over!!  
This meal is perfect For those crazy hectic days 
and you need something fast.
I believe this meal can be made a lot of different ways
depending on your taste and size of family.
 ours is made for a family of  2   
so get creative and make it your own.
This idea originally came from my brother in law, 
but we went and made some changes 
So here's how you make it 

Things Your Going to Need

~ A Frying Pan 
~  Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
~ 1 kielbasa 
~ 1 Onion
~ 1 Pepper 
~ Green Beans 
~ 3 Cloves Of Garlic Minced  
~ 1 Corn On the Cob
~ 3 or 4 Roma Tomatoes Cubed 

Directions 

-Take your frying pan
 and pour your extra virgin olive oil 
in the pan just enough to cover the bottom


-Turn the stove on to medium
and get your oil heated 
then grab your cutting board 
and your kielbasa 
and cut them into medium to thin slices 
and place them into the pan


- Now cook the meat till 
it gets to a light to medium 
brown color.
Keep mixing it around 
it does tends to stick 
-Then get a paper towel and place it 
on a paper plate 
so you can take some of the excess oil out.


-Now let your kielbasa sit.
Rinse your frying pan 
and give it a nice clean 
for your vegetables.
Repeat the oil step like you did above


-Cut up your 
pepper long ways  
and when the oil is hot 
go ahead and put the pepper 
in the oil 


-Then grab your onion 
and cut them and 
place them in the oil.
Be sure to stir them all around throughout 

  
-Take your green beans 
and wash them.
(we used the green beans from our garden )
Then cut the ends off 
and break them in half
and put them in the pan 


-Now take your 3 cloves of 
garlic and give them a good mincing
and place that into the oil.
Here is a good tip I've learned to take the outside off the garlic, 
 take your knife and turn it on its side and place it on the garlic 
(now be careful) take your fist and smash it on top of the knife
and the outer part comes off easy.


-now time for the corn on the cob. 
 what your are going to do is shave the 
corn off the cob 
Please Be Careful doing this.
You can use frozen corn but the corn on the cob 
taste alot better.
and put that into the pan.


-Now give it some salt and pepper 
and cook it till its slightly brown and soft.


-Now your ready to add the tomatoes.
Dice them up and put them in the pan 
and cook them till they just get soft 
(make sure they don't get to soft) 


-Now add the meat back in and continue to cook 
until the tomatoes get soft.


-Now serve it up with some rice 
or whatever your Lil  hearts desires
and enjoy. 


There you have it dolls,
I hope you enjoy it just as much as we do.
Let me know if you give this recipe a try.
What is one of your favorite vegetable dishes??
This gal just has to know.
