This is what I'm doing tomorrow, only in the oven.

We bought a large one at Christmas & love it!
So easy to use this cooking challenged dad can do it!

Hamilton Beach, I thank you!


BTW, it was delicious!

I've been cooking and cooking and cooking lately. With both boys here, it's too expensive to eat out!! I made this Latino style chicken last night with Sofrito - so good! And tonight, it was homemade Chicken Parmesan. I made a ton of it, so there will be leftovers for the boys for lunches.

BTW, only one of the boys is really mine. The other one is "like" mine and lives with us in the summers. For the rest of the week, I'm planning Boston Market Meatloaf (their recipe, which is awesome), and perhaps Chicken Curry. I'm trying to be creative.

I'll dig it out and get it on here. It's the only meatloaf we really like - no chunks of onions or green peppers.
