Hey Good Lookin' What Ya Got Cookin'

I was on such a cooking kick the other night..... I think it is because I am obsessed with coupons and putting lots of meals together at Kroger and seeing how much I can SAVE! I am so into the Houston Chronicle coupons now. I literally run to the street when I wake up on Sundays to get the paper like I have won the lotto, it's pathetic really! I even take it with me on the way to church (like I have time...) with my scissors and sexy wallet (this is my Sunday School's version of the Dave Ramsey envelope system, my friends and I have come up with). I always cut coupons on th eway home from church and start my grocery list, followed by going to http://www.shortcuts.com/ and adding anything extra to my Kroger Card.

This past week I saved over 33% on doubling coupons and taking mulitple coupons for the same item. Our super expensive Hypo-allergenic Formula I used 2 5.00 off coupons and saved 10.00 bucks, that is so rewarding to me, I never thought I would be so into coupons,

but I look at it as free Cash Baby!

Here are a few recipes I made the other night I would like to share.

Creamy Stuffed Chicken Roll-Ups

"Yumm-O"

What You Need!
4 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1 lb.)
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1 clove garlic, minced
1/3 cup KRAFT Original Barbecue Sauce
3 Tbsp. apricot preserves
1/4 tsp. hot pepper sauce
4 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cooked, chopped

Make It!
HEAT oven to 375ºF.
POUND chicken to 1/4-inch thickness; place, top-sides down, on work surface. Mix cream cheese, onions, parsley and garlic; spread down centers of chicken breasts. Roll up, starting at one short end of each. Place, seam-sides down, in single layer in shallow pan.
MIX barbecue sauce, preserves and hot pepper sauce; brush 1/4 cup evenly onto chicken.
BAKE 35 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF), brushing with remaining barbecue sauce mixture the last 5 min. Top with bacon.

Sun Dried Tomato Pinwheels

Ingredients :

1/2 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1/4 cup basil leaves
8 ounces cream cheese

Directions

1. Chop sun-dried tomatoes, Chop Basil and blend. Add cream cheese; process until well-mixed. Transfer to a serving bowl or storage container.

2. Spread onto tortillas and roll up, cut desired bite size pieces.

This pinwheel is a similar version to a treat at my sister in laws baby shower a few weeks back, it was soooo good I had to tru to make it.

The Pullen ladies are pretty mean in the kitchen, we are never dissapointed!

I think it tasted the exact same, I must have found the exact recipe or close enough to not tell the difference.

Derric and I loved both of these recipes, I threw together a "Suddenly Salad" to go with it and it was pretty amazing with our frosty milk glasses!

We will definetly make these again.
