Last night I had to go to the grocery store. I was hungry. The number one rule of grocery stores is to "Not go while you are hungry!" So since I had to go home anyways I figured I would try and make dinner before I went. One problem, I felt like I didn't have any thing to make! I had half of all the ingredients I needed to make stuff! So to the clouds.. Just kidding. I started rummaging through my pantry & fridge and found a meal! yay! It turned out delicious! Here it is:
Chicken Cheddar Broccoli Biscuit Casserole (say that 5 times fast!)
1 can of Texas style biscuits (10/can)
2 chicken breasts
1 can cream of chicken
1 cup fresh or frozen broccoli
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Cut chicken into cubes and cook thoroughly. (I seasoned mine with lemon pepper and cooked in olive oil) Simultaneously boil broccoli in separate pan. Once chicken and broccoli are cooked, place the chicken in the pan with the broccoli. Add CoC/Sour Cream/& cheddar cheese and put on medium heat until heated throughout and cheese is melted. Grease a 9 X 9 Pan and place 7 biscuits in bottom of pan. Pour chicken/broccoli mixture on top of biscuits. Then tear the remaining 3 biscuits into small pieces and place on top of the mixture. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until biscuit pieces on top are golden brown. Let sit to cool for atleast 5 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!

The easiest pizza dough recipe
Whenever I want something easy and filling I make a pizza. Okay not everytime, but it is a family staple food! Before I write out the recipe you must know this one secret. KITCHEN AID.
The kitchen aid has changed my cooking life. Anything I have to mix or knead is now done by my red beauty! If only she could roll out dough too.... Anyways, If you do not have an electric bowl mixer ie kitchenaid, bosch, etc.. I highly suggest you ask Santa for one for Christmas! Especially if baking/cooking more is one of your new years resolutions! (Oh and you can mash and shred things with it too!)

Easy Crispy Pizza Dough
1 packet insant dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 tsp salt
1 tbs olive oil
1 tbs sugar
*spices to taste (optional)
2 1/2-3 1/2 cups of flour
Mix water and yeast together and let sit for a minute. Add salt, olive oil, sugar and 2 cups of flour
Mix together and add 1/2 cup of flour until dough is firm but slightly sticky.
Put dough in oiled bowl (roll the dough in the oil so all sides are covered) and let sit for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat oven to 450*
Roll out your dough and place whatever sauce and toppings you desire!
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
*Spices to taste-I will sometimes add garlic and oregano to my dough to give it a little extra flavor, it tastes great with out it though!
Slice, Dish, & Enjoy!
