Magleby's Rolls

Ever eat at Magleby's Restaurant? They have the worlds best rolls. I've used this roll recipe (came from my mother-in-law) for years and I think it tastes pretty similar, if not exact!
Plus, the best part...... EASY!!!


24 Rhodes frozen dinner rolls, thawed out
1-2 cups grated KRAFT Parmesan cheese (the lovely stuff in the green bottle-or you can use fresh if you want to, although I take the easy way out and use the bottle!)
approximately 1 Tbsp. garlic powder, go heavily with this stuff
2 Tbsp. dried parsley flakes
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted



-In a small bowl mix together the Parmesan cheese and parsley flakes. In another small bowl mix together butter and garlic powder.
-Take your rolls and roll them out bread stick-style about 3-4 inches long.
-Dip your rolls in the butter mixture and then the cheese mixture. Place on a greased cookie sheet one inch apart. Cover and let rise until doubled in size.
-Cook in a preheated 350* oven for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.

Easy Ranch Chicken

1 chicken breast per person. (I use 3 Kirkland brand chicken breasts and cut them lengthwise; they're pretty big. That will feed my family of four- with a little extra!!)
1-1/2 cups Ranch dressing
1-1/2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs

Put ranch in one bowl and bread crumbs in another. Dip chicken in ranch and then in bread crumbs. Place in a greased 9 x 13 in. baking dish. Place in a preheated 375* oven and cook for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through.

Super EASY and the ranch makes it very flavorful and DELICIOUS!!

Awesome Grilled Cheese with any kind of Soup

So I have never posted anything, even though the thought has always been there in the back of my mind, so here is to my first post, hopefully you like it enough to try it.

Winter is always a great time to have soup. I remember always having the usual of tomato soup with grilled cheese. So instead I decided to mix it up a little bit. I love the Bear Creek Soups and I like to add a little bit more to it, you know the suggestion part on the back of there packages. But what I really did to mix it up was with the grilled cheese. At Costco there is this awesome stuff called Johnny's Garlic Spread. I always use it with pasta night and just use plain bread or whatever. It is so easy, just add butter and wala you are done.


So I made the spread mixed and ready to use. Spread it over the bread and starting thinking, why don't I add more than just American to this. I knew that my kids would just want the American, but I love different things, so I used what I had which was Provolone, Swiss and American.
Can I just tell you it was delicious. So if you want something different to try, I swear you will love this, in fact my husband came home didn't want to eat and I just made him try a taste and he then all of a sudden got hungry.
