This came from 2008 Woman's World magazine. I actually made this last year, for my coworkers. It is easy, and oh so good. A great substitute if you are tired of plain old pumpkin pie. Click the picture to enlarge, and read the recipe. There are two others there too, that I have not yet tried. Happy Saturday, everyone.

Simple Saturday Recipe

Do you need a nice, easy, cool drink your kids, and friends will love? If you said yes, then this is the recipe for you. My kids had this last year for Thanksgiving, and they loved it. We are having friends this year, with young kids, and I will make it again. You can use any combination you want, if they don't like one of the ones listed.

You will need:

1 carton 64 ounces orange juice, chilled
6 cans, 12 ounces each, of creamed soda, chilled
1 bottle, 2 liters, lemonade
1 pint of pineapple juice, chilled

In a large punch bowl, combine the OJ, lemonade, and cream soda. Top with sherbet, and serve immediately. It won't last long, trust me, you might want to have extra on hand to make more LOL. It makes 16-20 4 oz servings. Enjoy!

Simple Saturday Chicken Recipe

This is such an easy, and yummy recipe. Anyone who knows me, nothing beats a good, easy recipe. This is pretzel crusted chicken. I made it two different ways. One with the ham, and cheese, and one without. My kids didn't think they would like the ham variety, my husband however loved it.

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 cup honey mustard
8 thin slices deli ham
1 tbsp butter melted
8 thin slices swiss cheese
1/2 cup crushed pretzels

Cut a horizontal slit in one side of each chicken breast half to within 1/2 in. of the opposite side. Spread honey mustard inside each pocket, stuff with ham, and cheese slices. Place in a greased 13x9 inch baking dish. Brush with melted butter, sprinkle with pretzels, I rolled them in it so they were covered. Bake uncovered at 350 for 40-45 min or until juice runs clear.

This awesome recipe came from my Taste of Home magazine. We added the cheese to it, their recipe did not have it. We also cooked ours in the toaster oven, to keep the heat in the house down. Enjoy!
