Buffalo Chicken Bake- Amazing Easy Dinner!

Pinterest, you are one of my favorite things in the world. 

I am actually unsure how I previously lived without you. 

Since you have been in my life, I have been so much more creative & a much better cook!!

One particular recipe I found on Pinterest is the Buffalo Chicken Bake:

So easy & soooo yummy!!!

Ingredients: 

• 1 1/4lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
• 1/3cup buffalo wing sauce (More depending on how hot you like things)
• 6cups frozen (thawed) southern-style hash brown potatoes (we bought any hash browns we could find)
• 1cup ranch or blue cheese dressing
• 1/2cup shredded Cheddar cheese (2 oz)
• 1can (10 oz) condensed cream of celery soup
• 1/2cup corn flake crumbs
• 2tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
• 1/4cup chopped green onions (3 to 4 medium) 

  

Directions: 

• 1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray.
• 2 In medium bowl, stir together chicken strips and wing sauce.
• 3 In large bowl, stir together potatoes, dressing, cheese and soup. Spoon into baking dish. Place chicken strips in single layer over potato mixture.
• 4 In small bowl, stir together crumbs and butter. Sprinkle in baking dish.

Lemony Tuna Pasta

So I oddly tried a random recipe the other day, that actually turned out to be quite delicious!!

It is quite random, and odd together, but surprised me enough to want to post about it!!

Ingredients

· 12 ounces linguine (3/4 box)

· 3 tablespoons olive oil

· 4 cloves garlic, sliced

· 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

· 2 6-ounce cans oil-packed tuna

· 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest

· kosher salt and black pepper

· 1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions

1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Reserve ½ cup of the cooking water; drain the pasta.

2. Wipe out the pasta pot and cook the oil, garlic, and red pepper over medium heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.

3. Add the pasta, tuna, lemon zest, ¾ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and the reserved pasta water to the pasta pot and cook over low heat, tossing, until the sauce is slightly thickened and coats the pasta, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the parsley and toss to combine.

Slightly spicy, slightly sweet but very good!!
