Pam Wamsley's Casserole

By -
I got this one from my aunt, who got it from her friend Pam Wamsley. My uncle has heart issues, so my aunt modified to reduce the fat and cholesterol a bit. I'll put in the original ingredients, along with her modifications....

Ingredients
- 2-1/2 to 3 pound chicken, cooked and off the bone (or take the easy way like me, and cook up about 2 pounds of chicken tenderloins)
- 1 12-serving package of Stove Top stuffing mix
- 1 can cream of chicken soup (use low-sodium, low-fat, or whatever version)
- 1-1/2 sticks of butter (margarine)
- 1 cup sour cream (fat-free)
- 1-1/2 cup chicken stock (2 chicken bouillion (sp?) cubes dissolved in 1-1/2 cups boiling water)
- canned cranberry sauce

Preheat oven to 350.

In a large bowl, melt the butter, then stir in stuffing. Mix well, do not add water. Spread 3/4 of this mixture in a greased 9x13 baking dish. Lay pieces of chicken on top.

In a medium bowl, mix sour cream, soup, and just 1 cup chicken stock. Pour or spoon over the chicken and stuffing.

Spread the rest of the stuffing on top, then sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of stock on top.

Bake uncovered for 45 minutes.

Serve with cranberry sauce on the side. (In my opinion, the cranberry is necessary. Its sweetness/tartness really complements the dish well.)

Dayton's Famous Pine Club Salad Dressing

By -
Well, close enough anyway. The Pine Club is probably Dayton's most famous restaraunt--not that Dayton is some culinary mecca or anything. This dressing is traditionally served on an iceberg lettuce salad with grated carrot (boring). It's a shame, really, since the dressing is so good but that's why it's better to eat it at home on the salad of your choice. I like it over a green salad with blue cheese, apples/pears and toasted walnuts/pecans, it's good with pasta salad and it's also good on Isaac's broccoli salad. Serves approximately 8. 1 C vegetable/canola oil 3/4 C cider vinegar 1/3 C white sugar 1 tsp salt 2 tsp garlic powder 1 scant tsp red pepper flakes You can mix this one of two ways: either pour it all into a mason jar, put on the lid and shake the heck out of it or do it up with your stick blender. I recommend using the stick blender. Either way it's delicious. Refrigerate leftovers and note that it keeps pretty well. I think I had my...

Pesto Tortellini Salad

By -
Why don't we just re-name the blog "Recipes Kelly Stole from Isaac's" because I seem to have no other recipes amongst my repertoire. Sheesh. Again, this is not really a recipe, but this salad was, and still is, one of the biggest sellers at the restaurant. As with all of Isaac's recipes, I've drastically reduced the quantity from the original (5 lbs. of tortellini, anyone?) 1.5 lbs tri-colored cheese-filled tortellini (or regular white ones, whatever), cooked according to pkg directions and gently rinsed with cold water 1.5 medium-ish tomatoes, diced 1/2 medium-size red onion, diced 1/3 C black olives (do yourself a favor and get some decent olives) 2/3 C or so pesto (I did a mix of basil pesto and arugula pesto) Dump all ingredients into a bowl and stir until everything is well-coated by the pesto. This is tasty when served immediately but the flavor will continue to develop the longer it sits. As usual, I added 2 handfuls of chopped asparagus but wi...

mango soba update

By gwen -
A small note to those of us trying to eat more veg, as Kelly would say... this soba noodle salad is delicious with slaw replacing some or all of the noodles. I made it with just one little bundle of noodles, a whole bag of broccoli slaw, and half a bag of cabbage/carrot mixture, and it's great -- actually provides a delicious crunch and you don't miss the rest of the noodles. I cooked the chicken in a bit of the marinade, too, and diced it into the salad/noodle/mango mixture for some protein. Yum.
