Yep, you guessed it!

I feel like all I blog about these days are RECIPES!! For some reason I have been on this kick of trying new recipes and baking goodies...yum!! Back in the day when our church was getting ready to build it's building we did a cookbook fundraiser that was compiled of recipes from ladies in the church. It's a treasure for sure! I made these muffins a couple days ago and they are DELICS!! I pretty much had everything in my pantry to make them too which was fantastic. This recipe is from Deb Gaiotti :)...

Oatmeal Apple Raisin Muffins
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1 cup raisins
1 chopped apple
1/2 cup oil (I used applesauce instead)
1 cup flour
1 cup oats
1/3 cup sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. nutmeg
2 tsp. cinnamon

Beat egg; stir in remaining ingredients. Mix just until moistened. Pour into muffin cups. Bake at 400 for 15 minutes.

That's IT!!!!!

Muenster Chicken Recipe

I tried a new recipe last night for dinner. Don't you just get tired of making the same stuff all the time after a while? I do. It's from our church cookbook that was done YEARS ago. I didn't eat it until I got home from work last night but it was YUMMY! So it's not the HEALTHIEST meal so we ended up just making veggies to go with it. Enjoy! Oh yeah...I'm going to try a Pampered Chef recipe soon too...Curried Turkey Meatballs...stay tuned!

Boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup bread crumbs

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
