*parmesan-crusted fish…curse auto correct!

Lisa, I will be glad to share them with you. They are so easy and delicious and an easy way to use leftover potatoes and no one cares that they are eating leftovers. Hope you and your family enjoy them as much as we do. I agree regarding the auto correct too!! lol
Leftover mashed potatoes or you can make fresh, 4 ounces softened philadephia cream cheese, 4 -6 ounces sour cream, I use cheddar or Colby jack cheese, bacon and chives. (I don’t measure these 3) Just mix them all together and bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 -40 minutes.
We started back to school last week, while my sister and her 3 kids were here. So, it was a crazy way to start the year! Good thing the first week is easy on the homework… I have no idea what I’m making for dinner this week. Yikes! We seriously just had homemade chocolate chip cookies for dinner tonight – that’s how “off” we are. Haha!
I have a question: You had an instagram post not too long ago about you and your daughter making a bunch of different chicken dishes (like 8) for a cosmo article. Did I miss the article or the post about that?? I was hoping to read it for some new ideas. Thanks for any info!
Enjoy your last week of summer! 🙂
that IS a crazy way to start the school year – you are a brave woman! 😉
that post has not published yet – but when it does I will for sure to link to it in my friday show and tell post!
Yay! Thanks!!
