Here is a new Gifts to Grow Code worth 10 points.  It expires May 16th at midnight.  FBMD76C7HMEXT12

This is one my favorite go-to recipes.  I love to make this for parties, showers, or anytime I need to feed a large group of people.  This week was teacher appreciation week at my son's preschool so I volunteered to make a main dish for the teacher and staff luncheon today.  This is the easiest thing to make and it's absolutely delicious. 

Ingredients:
Boneless skinless chicken breasts
Purple or red grapes
Canned pineapple tidbits, drained
Seasoned salt
Fresh ground pepper
Miracle whip 
Crossants or bread

1.  I fill a large crockpot with boneless skinless chicken breasts (frozen or fresh) and water the day before.  I usually sprinkle a few spices in like cajun seasoning, marjoram, pepper, whatever you have that goes with chicken.  Cook all day on low (8-10) hours.  

2.  Then remove chicken and shred/chop for the salad.  Put chicken in a large mixing bowl and add about half a bunch purple or red grapes (split grapes in half).   Add 1/2 to 1 can pineapple tidbits drained.  Then add 1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.  Add miracle whip (not mayonaise) probably more than 1 cup (I don't know a quantity-just mix in til it seems like the right texture).  Add seasoned salt, at least a teaspoon (you will have to taste and decide how much to add).  Mix all together.  

3.  Refrigerate overnight and put on crossants just before serving.  About 2 1/2 lb. of chicken makes enough salad for 18 mini crossants.  You can put extra salad in fridge and serve on crossants or bread later.  

I buy the mini crossants at Sam's Club.  They have the best price for the quantity needed.  

Whenever I slow-cook chicken for a casserole or chicken salad, I strain and save the chicken stock and freeze it for recipes.  You can freeze it in ice cube trays and then transfer the frozen cubes to a ziploc bag.

These homemade apple chips are delicious, healthy, and really easy to make.  I started making these when visiting my sister and her family recently.  My nephew has dietary restrictions due to food allergies so I thought this would be a new snack he would enjoy.  He loved them and so did everyone else.  The only ingredients are apples and cinnamon.  

Ingredients:

3-4 Apples 
Cinnamon
Parchment Paper

Directions:

1.  Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees F.

2.  Peel, core, and thinly slice apples into rings.  A mandolin or sharp knife works well.  

3.  Place apples in a single layer on two parchment lined cookie sheets.  

4.  Sprinkle with cinnamon.

5.  Bake for 1 hour.  Turn apples and sprinkle other side with cinnamon.  Return to oven and bake until crispy for another 1 to 1 3/4 hours.  I just leave them in until they are crispy.  

Store in an airtight container.
