Last night I didn't know what to cook since my grass-fed organic beef order had not come yet. So I searched in my freezer and found some frozen chicken tenderloins and decided to make some chicken fingers. I wanted to make them a little healthier than the fried version so I baked them on my pampered chef bar pan.
If you don't have a pampered chef bar pan you do not know what you are missing. This is probably one of my favorite items in my kitchen and I use it for almost everything! (Also, I do not work for pampered chef and do not get any royalties or commissions).
Chicken Fingers
1 package of chicken tenderloins
1 egg (beaten with a bit of water)
1 cup flour
1 cup bread crumbs ( I used the seasoned bread crumbs but if yours are unseasoned then you can season it with herbs of your choice)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Take chicken and dredge in the flour, dip in the egg and coat in breadcrumbs. Place chicken on baking sheet and bake for 20-30 min.
I served my chicken fingers with ketchup, baked sweet potatoes and some green beans that I lightly steamed and sprinkled with some seasoned salt and butter. YUMM!

Hamburger Pie
This is a quick family friendly meal that my husband loves!
2 cans pillsbury crescent rolls (if you can find the crescent sheet it works even better)
1 lb chopped meat (use the type you like; beef, chicken or turkey all work well)
1/4 lb american cheese
Preheat oven according the directions on the can for the crescent rolls. Cook chopped meat over medium heat and season with salt and pepper. Roll out 1 can of dough and do not separate, it should be one sheet on a baking sheet. (I use my pampered chef bar pan) Spread chopped meat onto the dough but leave about 1/2 inch of the dough around the edge. Cover meat with cheese and then take the 2nd roll of dough and place it on top. Seal the edges and bake until golden brown. Serve with ketchup and some tater tots and a veggie and enjoy!

My inspiration
I decided to start this blog for my mommy friends who are often asking me what I made for dinner, and how I possibly had time to make it. So, this is to help my mommy friends cook some simple, kid-friendly, yummy dinners in a short amount of time.
Growing up my mom always cooked and made delicious dinners in a short amount of time. She is my inspiration! I hope that I can help out my fellow mommy friends by sharing my recipes and some funny stories along the way.
