Day 36: Chicken Stir Fry && Rice Krispies Treats






Today is one of those rainy days, actually, it has flooded entire downtown Nashville, and we were craving Rice Krispies Treats and Stir Fry. I was originally not going to put the stir fry recipe up since its way too simple, but I used a skillet so I figured that was "cooking".

Chicken Stir Fry





1-2 chicken breasts (depending how many people you are feeding)
Vegetables (celery, carrots, brocoli, green beans, snap peas, etc)
Sauce (pre made stir fry sauce or you can use soy sauce/sugar combo)
Rice (optional)


Directions:

1. Defrost chicken, and cut chicken into slivers. Cook chicken until fully cooked (3-5 minutes).
2. Add vegetables, pour sauce over vegetables and chicken in skillet, and cook until hot.
Serve over rice. Enjoy

What we thought: We added a bag of frozen stir fry vegetables plus a frozen bag of snap peas. I ate mine with rice. I thought this was so good! It was easy, effortless, and perfect for those lazy sunday days. 9/10!


Rice Krispies Treats
(this recipe came straight off the cereal box)







You will need:

3 tablespoons margarine or butter
1 package (10 oz, about 40) regular marshmallows OR 4 cups miniature marshmallows
6 cups Kellogg's Ricke Krispies cereal.


Directions:

1. Melt margarine or butter in large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.

2. Add Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal. Stir until well coated.

3. Using a buttered spatula or waxed paper, press mixture evenly into a 13x9x2-inch pan coated with cooking spray. Cut into 2 inch squares when cool. Best if served the same day.







What we thought:

Well, when I was melting the marshmallows with the butter, I couldn't help but think of the commercial where the dad was making krispy treats with his two daughters, and they were laughing and having the time of their life. I did not have that much fun making these, but I sure enjoyed eating them! They were delicious! This was my first time, that I can remember, making krispie treats. It was so good warm, and it just melted in your mouth! 10/10!
