Sticky Bun Breakfast Ring

Sticky Bun Breakfast Ring

2 small tubes refrigerator buttermilk biscuits OR 1 tube Pillsbury Grands buttermilk biscuits

3 Tbsp. butter or margarine, melted

1/2 C. pancake syrup

1/3 C. packed brown sugar

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 C. chopped pecans, opt.

1/4 C. chopped almonds, opt.

 

Spray a fluted pan with non-stick spray. Combine the melted butter and syrup in a small bowl and set aside. In another bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts (if desired).

 

Place about half of the syrup mixture in the bottom of the pan. Then sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture on top.

Lay the biscuits on the bottom of the pan, overlapping edges (closely together) to form a ring.

Top with remaining syrup and sugar mixtures.

 

Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool for 1 minute in the pan, then invert onto a serving platter and enjoy!

Chicken Parmesan Wraps

Sooooo pinterest... lol. That's about all I can say lol

I saw this on there and I was like whoaa that looks good!

I made this YESTERDAY lol. I hardly EVER post recipies that quick. It was THAT good.

Original Recipe

Chicken Parmesan Wraps

makes 6

8 oz raw chicken breast

1 cup marinara sauce, plus more for serving (see my favorite recipe here)

6 egg roll wrappers (each 7 inches squared)

1 cup baby spinach leaves

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Place the chicken breast in a small pot and fill with enough water just to cover. Bring to a boil on your stovetop, reduce the heat slightly, then simmer for about 12 minutes, or until cooked through. Drain and let cool before shredding with two forks, pulling against the grain of the meat.

Mix the meat with the marinara sauce in a small bowl.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Lay the egg roll wrappers on a clean work surface.

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE, GET SOMEONE ELSE TO COME HELP SO YOU CAN TAKE PICTURES...

Ok, continue...

Layer each with a few leaves of spinach, then chicken, followed by mozzarella and parmesan.

(Ignore the crappy cell phone picture lol)

Lightly brush two adjacent sides of the wrapper with water and fold the upper left corner downward, covering the filling, and press to seal on the bottom right corner. Press to seal each of the sides. Repeat with remaining wraps.

 

Place all 6 filled wraps on a greased wire rack set over a cookie sheet, coat each in cooking spray or a light brushing of olive oil, and bake for about 12 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn a golden brown.

Serve with warmed marinara sauce for dipping.

 

I didn't use marinara sauce for dipping. I used the Asian Sesame dressing from the other day. I seriously put it on everything and it was OH so good on this!

The only thing I will do differently next time is add more spinach. This is GOOD. I actually cooked the entire pack of egg roll wrappers. They KILLED it.

Soul Food, My Walk With God

I've had 3 people in my life that I was seriously holding on to. 

I seriously did NOT want to let go.

I wanted so much that two of them would see the change in me and want to do differently themselves.

Well what I'm learning is that God won't always use YOU to witness to someone else. I'm not talking about beating the Bible over their head, I'm talking about living your life before them.

One of the people, when ever we went out to dinner or when I was around them, I could NOT look them in the eyes,  (That's a post for another time) and there was a general "I don't like the way I feel around you" type deal.

Another one was cool, but they didn't think for themselves. They were easily led by other people and umm well that's just not good.

The last one, there was a huge, huge, huge, emotional attachment and it was one that I'm just not able to deal with anymore and I had to let them know.

I don't think I'm ever rude so when I let them know that I really need to cut all ties, there was such a release. I wish I could explain it. I cried because I care deeply for them but them being in my life wasn't a good thing.

I'm so glad I'm not a people pleaser anymore. I thank GOD for deliverance in that area. Had I still been in that place I'm sure I would STILL be holding on and not doing what's best for me and my relationship with God.

If I can't be a blessing to you and I don't have ANY peace when I'm dealing with you, it's time to move on. I don't want to block someone else blessings and I SURE don't want them to block mine.

I thank God for letting me know when it's time to move on.

I REALLY pay close attention to the people I allow in my life and in my space. Physical space or mental space. I'm VERY careful.

Be careful who you are holding on to. Some people REALLY do just come in your life for a season.

Ok, that's it lol

I'm not perfect, just striving to be the woman God wants me to be. Keeping my life lined up with the WORD!

Even the BEST plans change lol

So, y'all know I'm working on getting my house back together after all the renovations.

THIS is a job lol.

I feel like I've just moved into a new house. BOXES EVERYWHERE lol.

I'm still organizing my kitchen/dining room/pantry lol, so the next room I do will be my studio.

Remember THIS post? Wellllllllll all of that has kinda changed. I think I've found something that will work even better for me.

I ran across THIS post and fell in LOVE with her shelves!

(Source)

I was like eeeeeek! I LOVE it!

Y'all see the bookcase? This little "nook" is behind my door. I'm going to get a better picture of it:

I can put shelves on BOTH walls and still be able to leave my door open all the way up.

DOUBLE space. If you ask me and that leaves my other wall open for other things lol.

I'm still going to make a version of THIS

table. It will be a little taller and NOT as long. Kinda like THIS

one.

Lowe's/ Home Depot and Target carry these cubes so I'm going to price check them and see who has the best deal.

I STILL need to go to IKEA, but not for that bookcase. Funny how you think you realllly want something and it's not exactly what you need. I just got a spiritual meaning out of that one. WHOA. Post on that coming soon lol.

Ok that's it for now! Y'all have a great day.

Can't WAIT until I can post some progress pics lol. Right now everything looks like the above pic... BOXES lol

 

GREAT BOOK!

I guess this is my first book of 2012 lol

The Proverbs 31 Woman

I've spent the earlier part of this morning reading this and whoaa.

It really opened up the scriptures for me and made me O_O at my own life lol.

It's a super quick read, only 40 pages or so but VERY good.

I'll be back with  more later!!!

Toodles!
