Weird...

The blog settings seem weird to me. The text is so big and the spacing is off. I have looked but don't know how to fix it. Any ideas? If you know how to fix it, give it a try...And if you ever want to change the background or anything. feel free. On my other computer where I set it up the yellow was lighter and different - this one is bright and kind of ugly.

Creamy Cheddar, Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice

This recipe sort of seems like a staple to me, so it's possible you already have a recipe like this. So sorry about that. This is what I'm making for dinner tonight. I think it's a Kraft recipe. Simple and delicious.

Creamy Cheddar Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice


- 1 pound boneless, chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 soup can milk
- 1 ½ cups instant white rice, uncooked
- 2 cups chopped fresh broccoli
- 1 cup shredded cheese

Spray skillet with cooking spray, add chicken, cover and cook until cooked through. Sprinkle with garlic powder. Add soup and milk. Bring to a boil. Stir in rice and broccoli. Cover. Reduce heat to low, simmer 5 minutes. Stir in ½ cup cheese, and sprinkle remaining cheese on top.

BBQ Chicken

I thought, while I was sitting here, I would just post about what we are having for dinner tonight.
BBQ Chicken

Ingredients
BBQ sauce, whatever kind, I like original flavor
(you might have to use more than one bottle, just enough to cover the chicken)
Apricot & Pineapple Preserves 1 jar
3-4 chicken breasts, or really any amount you want, just add more of the above ingredients

Mix BBQ sauce and Apricot & Pineapple preserves in a pan that can go in the oven.  My big soup pot can go in the oven, but I think that you could just use a cake pan, and cover it.  Then put in chicken and make sure it is covered with sauce. 
Bake @ 350 for 45 minutes or until chicken is done.
I usually just make baked potatoes to go with it, but I am sure that anything would go with it.  If you want to bake the potatoes with it just put them in at the same time, it will take a little bit longer though!

I hope you guys enjoy this recipe!
