Chicken Spice Mix

This spice reminds me a lot of that roasted chicken stores sell.

1/2 t. salt

1/2 t. pepper

1/2 t. garlic powder

1/2 t. onion powder

1/2 t. paprika

Mix everything together. It should yield enough spice for 2-4 chicken breasts.

(To make chicken using this, I pour a little olive oil on a baking sheet, rub the spice all over the chicken breasts and bake at 350 until the chicken is done).

Egg and Olive Sandwich Spread

Yeah, the name makes the sandwich sounds weird, but my family loves it! Unfortunatly the recipe is done my eye and your taste...if you like a lot of olives add more...like it really creamy add more mayo...big chunks, small chucks, your choice...
All you need for this recipe is three (well four if you count bread) ingredients.

Green Olives (sliced)
Boiled Eggs (sliced)
Mayo
Mix everything together, spread on bread and enjoy...

See, super simple.

Zesty Italian Crock Pot Chicken

Mix together everything except the chicken. Place chicken in greased crock pot, pour sauce over top. Cook, covered, on high for at least 5 hours (it all depends on how hot your crock pot gets; it may be more or less). When chicken is cooked, remove it from the crock pot, shred it, then stir it back into the sauce.
Serve over noodles. *If the sauce is thicker than you like (when it's all cooked) add some milk.

Peach Bars

Sorry, there's no picture for this recipe. I tried a version of this and liked it but didn't love it. So, with several alterations I now love it!

For the Crust:
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
2 cup all-purpose flour
For the Filling:
1 half-pint jar peach preserves or jelly, or your favorite flavor
For the Crumb Topping:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/8 tsp pinch salt

Preheat oven to 350º.
Mix together the butter, flour, and confectioner's sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom of 11x7 baking pan. Bake for approximately 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
Remove from the oven and spread the preserves or jelly evenly all over the crust.
Combine the flour, sugar, and butter in a medium bowl with a pastry blender (or fork). Stir in oats, walnuts and salt.
Spread crumb topping evenly over the filling.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes until the top is lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before cutting, about an hour.
Enjoy!

Red Beans and Rice

I really am not pleases with this picture...I stirred the rice into the red bean mixture and to me, this doesn't make the dish look very good. But trust me, the picture is lying, this dish is delish!

1/2 cups of water
1 green bell pepper, chopped
