What's for Dinner?

Dinner tonight: broiled mahi-mahi, noodles with butter and mizithra cheese, and asparagus with bacon. I'm reasonably proud of myself.

Dinner last night was 50/50 chicken manicotti.

I took a few chicken breasts - boneless skinless uncooked and put them in the food processor and zipped them a bit. Then added a bunch of parm. cheese, mozzerella, garlic salt, italian seasoning and pepper. Whirled that around until it was mixed then stuffed it into uncooked manicotti shells.

In a 9x13 pan I put a little spaghetti sauce on one side and alfredo on the other. Put the stuffed shells in a a little water... maybe a little less then 1/4 cup. Then top with more sauces so you have 1/2 tray red and 1/2 tray white. Then lots more cheese on top. cover with foil and bake at 350 for an hour or so. Then remove the foil and cook more until it's bubbly and melty and yummy looking.

I like to have one of each.

I make this same recipe a few different ways -by cooking the noodles first - by using chicken tenders and string cheese just shoved in them...

All good - but this was the easiest method so far. And delish too!
