Chicken and gravy








Happy Weekend!!

Tonight we tried something new at our house. 

Chicken and Gravy over mashed potatoes. 

Absolutely delicious! 

Start with 2lbs boneless skinless chicken breast sliced thin. Salt and pepper chicken and cook over medium heat until it reaches 160°.





Once chicken has cooked, remove it from the skillet. Add to the skillet 4 tablespoons of butter, 1 chicken bouillon cube, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 4 heaping tablespoons of flour. Stir to form a roux. 

Then add 4 cups of chicken broth stirring frequently til boiling to make gravy. 


Once gravy thickens, shred chicken and add it back to the gravy. 


Serve over mashed potatoes and enjoy!

 I’m back!  You may have noticed I have taken a few years off from blogging. Life was BUSY! In my free time I’ve discovered I have a LOVE for meal planning. I am planning to share that love with y’all. I’ll be sharing recipes, weekly meal plans, monthly meal plans, and my tips or tricks that I have learned along the way. You'll notice my kiddos have grown up on me. They are so busy, so most of my meals will be targeted for the busy family. Stay tuned for more! -Keshia

Breakfast Prepping

  I am going to start by saying HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!! Thank you so much to those that gave the ultimate sacrifice so that we can be free!!! I try to prep some breakfast sandwiches weekly so the hubs has something to eat when he gets up at 4 am for work...so I can keep sleeping. Recently I made some homemade mcgriddle sandwiches. I made mini panckaes and drizzled some maple syrup in the mix. Cooked up some bacon and eggs and assembled sandwiches and put them in the fridge so they are easy to grab and microwave of a morning. However we found out that recipe was a sticky mess if he tried to eat them on the way out the door.  So, today I made biscuits and gravy for breakfast and purposely cooked about a dozen extra biscuits. I love these Grands biscuits. Cook them per the package directions and when they are done, drizzle melted butter over them.  This week I used premade sausage patties. I placed 1 frozen patty on each biscuit I had cut in half.  I added a slice of Kraf...

Meal Planning

"What's for dinner?" "What are we eating tonight?" EVERY DAY my husband and kids would ask these questions. And for a long time my answer was the same..."I have no idea we will figure it out later". Until, I fell in LOVE with meal planning. Now I can tell you what we are going to be eating any night of the week, for the next month. I thought I would use this blog to share some meal planning ideas with you. So, here it goes...Are you a weekly planner, Monthly planner, or fly by the seat of your pants type of person? I plan monthly. I start with a blank calendar. Fill in the activities we have going on so I know what nights we need "easy" meals. I try to plan a Mexican type meal on Tuesdays. We love breakfast for dinner, so usually one night of that too.  I am going to list our meal ideas. Comment and let me know what you want to see me blog the recipes for =)  Breakfast for Dinner French Toast Biscuits and Gravy Cereal Pancakes Waffl...
