I thought it was only fair to include a couple recipes since I am asking for a bunch. AND you've never eaten these ones, cause I made them up! So bonus!
matrix chicken
Chicken Breasts
1 can Creamy Chicken Soup
3/4 c. milk
a little flour
a little butter
Italian seasoning(oregano, thyme)
2 small cloves garlic minced, or garlic powder
1/4 an onion, minced
2 cups bread crumbs
tomatoes, sliced
Pound out the chicken breasts so you get a better yumminess to chicken ratio. Combine the onion, soup, milk, and garlic. In separate bowl combine bread crumbs, flour, melted butter, and italian seasoning. Dip the chicken in the soup mixture, then bread one side. Place on a greased cookie sheet, then place tomatoes on top of the chicken. Spoon Crumbs onto the top. Cook at 350 for 20 minutes or so. Or, cook it however you cook chicken so it doesn't dry out, I don't know how very well. Serve with rice, pilaf, couscous, or a luscious bed of pasta.
Note: I was watching the matrix while inventing this chicken, that's how it got it's name. However, it's probably a copyright infringment to use that title, so don't publish and make money off this recipe.
Nat, I wish you could see the illustration william did in my cookbook
Savory Harvest Delicious
Pork chops or Lamb
Potatoes (new potatoes from the garden are my fave)
carrots
heck, throw some pumpkin chunks in there, or other squash if you like it
Garlic
parsley
rosemary(if you like it)
pumpkin sauce(exactly what you would use for a pumpkin pie)
roasted pumpkin seeds(you can buy em! Or make em, if you want to. But whichever way you do it, take off the shells before you eat them, cause they are not as good with them on :) OR if you hate em, don't use em! "This is your world, anything can happen" Ooh, maybe try candied pecans...)
Thaw and sear the meat. Scrub and cut the potatoes and carrots and dump them in a pan with the meat. Season with savory goodness. Baste with pumpkin sauce(I had left-over pumpkin pie mix, but not enough for a pie. That is what prompted this experiment). Bake at 350, covered, for an hour, or until potatoes and meat are done. Baste again half way through cooking, and add water if need be. Serve hot. Sprinkle with salted roasted pumpkin seeds and drizzle with more warm sauce. Eat with biscuits, rice, or something else that is delicious.
KungFu Panda Noodle Chicken
again with the name. Don't be tricked into thinking this is chinese food, it's more like Chicken Cordon Bleu.
SO, there aren't very many of us so I only use 2 chicken breasts and make this in a bread pan, but make however much you need for your family!
2Chicken Breasts, boiled and cubed
1 1/2 - 2 cups cooked Penne Pasta
2 Cups Alfredo sauce(if you home-make it, you can add garlic and onions)
sliced ham
grated cheese
Layer pasta, sauce, chicken, ham. Do a couple layers and top with cheese. Cram it in the oven
long enough to heat it through.

Thanks for your meal ideas and recipes! I read the meal ideas list first and when I came to Matrix Chicken, William also mentioned that he didn't remember exactly what it was like, but he drew a picture of a chicken doing "this". Haha. Anyway, that sounds like one I'll have to try! Also, I just discovered justcookalready.com and really like it! If you scroll down far enough, on the right are the tags if you are looking for beef or chicken or to use rice or whatever. She's got a lot of good stuff on there!
