Keeper Recipe Alert! Buffalo Chicken Nachos Grande



Want an appetizer that's real good, just not good but down right delicious? Look no further, from Pillsbury it's Buffalo Chicken Nachos Grande! Just a warning, these are addictive! I came across these on a Pillsbury Recipe email update the other day and it sounded too good to pass up, and they were.






The recipe calls for 4 cups shredded deli rotisserie chicken, 3/4 cup Buffalo wing sauce, 1 bag (18 oz) restaurant-style tortilla chips, 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (12 oz), 1/2 cup finely chopped celery, and 1 cup crumbled blue cheese (4 oz). Sort of sounds like Buffalo Wings. I used a Walmart Rotisserie Chicken, Kroger Brand Medium Wing Sauce, Mission Round Tortiia, Sargento Reduced Fat Shredded Mozzarella, I was out of Celery so I didn't add any, and Mayfield Crumbled Bleu Cheese. I think chopped Celery or maybe even chopped Green Onions would both work. Even add a sliced Jalapeno Pepper on top for added heat.


To prepare them just Heat your oven to 350°F. and in large bowl, toss chicken and 1/2 cup of the wing sauce to coat. Spray two large (14-inch) pizza pans with cooking spray. Arrange half of the tortilla chips on one pizza pan; top with 2 cups of the chicken and 1 1/2 cups of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat on second pizza pan. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top each pan with celery and blue cheese; drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup wing sauce. To serve; slide one pan of nachos off onto other pan to make one large mound of nachos. Serve immediately. I wanted to try a small batch of these so I only made one baking sheet of them. As I said earlier these are delicious! Perfect for those tailgate football gatherings, parties, or even a main meal. Easily made and they are good leftovers; just put them on a plate with a paper towel over them and reheat in the microwave about 30 - 40 seconds. So if your looking for a new snack or appetizer, here it is! Thank you Pillsbury!

What better way to heat up a cooold and windy day than some Baked Buffalo Chicken Breast! I love this recipe for Chicken Breasts. The Kroger Wing Sauce gives it fantastic flavor with nice heat, not over powering but you know there's Wing Sauce on it! For dinner I prepared Baked Buffalo Chicken Breast Sandwich w/ Baked Crinkle Fries.



To prepare my Chicken I needed 2 (4 ounce) Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, 6 Tablespoons favorite Wing Sauce (I used Kroger Wing Sauce), and 1/2 Cup Litehouse Lite Bleu Cheese Dressing/Dip, and Aunt Millie's Light Whole Grain Buns .

Placed the chicken in dish and poured Wing Sauce over chicken and baked (uncovered) 20 minutes. I served it on an Aunt Millie's Light Whole Grain Bun and topped it with some Litehouse Light Bleu Chesse Dressing. I made 2 Chicken Breasts 1 for dinner and 1 for lunch tomorrow.



To go with the Baked Buffalo Chicken Breasts I baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Fries. For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding topped with Cool Whip Free.

Baked Sweet Asian Chili Wings w/ Baked Crinkle Fries


Dinner Tonight: Baked Sweet Asian Chili Wings w/ Baked Crinkle Fries




Rainy and gloomy today, but still 60 degrees! But from what I hear that all changes by tomorrow, back to more winter like temperatures. So to get rid of those rainy day blues I prepared Chicken Wings, Baked Sweet Asian Chili Wings! I love these Wings from Tyson. The seasoning is just too good! They taste like the name; a little sweet with a hint of chili heat. Served them with a Litehouse Lite Big Bleu (Bleu Cheese) Dipping Sauce. Great Dip, thick and full of Bleu Cheese. For a side I also had Ore Ida Crinkle Fries. I baked both at 450 degrees. My type of dinner used 1 large baking sheet and 1 small baking sheet. Easy clean up and easy to prepare! For dessert later a single serv cup of Healthy Choice Frozen Vanilla Yogurt.

Tyson® Individually Frozen Sweet Asian Chili 1st and 2nd joint Wings are perfect for game time or a fun family meal. These oven-bake wings pair perfectly with easy-to-prepare dip recipes on the back of the bag! Contains up to 22% seasoning solution.

Bleu and 'Shroom Bison Burger w/ Baked Steak Fries

Dinner Tonight: Bleu and 'Shroom Bison Burger w/ Baked Steak Fries


To me the best tasting Burgers are Bison Burgers! I had a Bison Ground Sirloin Burger that I seasoned with Sea Salt and Ground Black Pepper. Fried in Extra Virgin Olive Oil about 4 minutes per side. Topped with Sauteed Mushrooms and Murray's Maytag Crumbled Bleu Cheese. If you love Bleu Cheese as much as I do you have to try the Maytag Bleu, Murray's if you can find it. I served it on an Healthy Life Whole Grain Bun. As a side I had Ore - Ida Steak Fries with a couple of splashes of Heinz 57 Sauce. For dessert later a bowl of Del Monte Sugarless Sliced Pears.

Soon to be World Famous Bleu and 'Shroom and Bison Burger w/...

Dinner Tonight: Bleu and 'Shroom and Bison Burger w/ Baked Steak Fries


Light comfort food tonight for dinner. I had a Ground Bison Sirloin Burger which was seasoned with McCormick Grinder Steakhouse Seasoning and then fried in Extra Virgin Olive Oil about 4 minutes per side. Just a note when you fry a Bison Burger watch it carefully as it fries quicker than Beef because it's so lean. Anyway I used Healthy Life Whole Grain Buns and topped the Burger with Crumbled Bleu Cheese and Sauteed Mushrooms. The Mushrooms were lightly sauteed in E.V. Olive Oil and a half pat of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter then seasoned with Sea Salt, Pepper, Parsley, Cumin, and Minced Garlic. As a side I had Ore - Ida Steak Fries that I baked. Dessert later Breyer's Carb Smart Vanilla Ice Cream topped with a little Smucker's Sugarless Chocolate Hot Fudge Topping.
