Kelsey's wedding shower.........

My niece Kelsey is getting married on Febuary 21st....her fiance is Zach, he is amazing and very good looking too, anyway my sister Laina is giving her a shower up here in Utah County since she has been living up here for a while, I'm going to help her and I volunteered to do the Chicken Salad to put on mini crescents, I figured I could do that ahead of time in case I can't get off work early. Thought I may as well post this recipe since I was typing it up anyway.  It is a recipe from one of Laina's good friends Charlotte, it is supposed to be amazing, I will post pictures of the food and the shower as soon as I can.....Enjoy!!!


Charlotte’s Chicken Salad
3 cups cooked, shredded chicken
1 cup diced celery
¼ cup diced green onion
1 can water chestnuts, diced
1 cup mayo
¾ cup whipping cream
Grapes cut into quarters
Pasta to make it go further (acini de pepe)

Place all ingredients into large mixing bowl, stir together until well mixed.

Serve on Crescents or bread of choice.

I need to get busy, I was showing my coworkers my blog and realized I have not posted since 2012, I can't believe it's been that long.....WOW!!!  So decided I had better post something.  This is one of my favorite recipes and I'm asked for it alot.  I think this recipe is also from the Kanosh cookbook, I honestly can't remember, I know I first got it from Marjean Christensen, she gave it to my mom when they were making this for a RS meeting on a Saturday morning, I tasted it and I knew I had to have the recipe.  I'm just going to call it Kanosh Breakfast Casserole....I love and miss Kanosh, it's the most awesome place in the world!!!!  Anyway, I have made this every Christmas morning since and taken it to my in-laws for breakfast.  Jake loves it, so I make it alot on the weekends.  If there are leftovers, it is also great heated up in the microwave the next day. Hope you enjoy it!



 Kanosh Breakfast Casserole

1 roll Pillsbury Crescent Seamless Dough Sheet(if you can't find these, just use the cresent rolls but you have to press the seams together, the sheets are so nice, I have found them at Smiths)
1 cup of breakfast meat, sausage, ham, or bacon(cooked and crumbled or diced)
2 cups grated cheese(calls for Mozerella, I use what I have)
7 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup milk
1/8 tsp ground pepper
1/2 tsp salt

Roll out dough, press into edges and corners or 9X13 greased pan. Top with cheese and meat, evenly spread.  Mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper together, pour slowly over other ingredients.  Bake @ 350 for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown and egg mixture is set.  Cool for 5 minutes, cut and serve.  (Leftovers are very good warmed up)
