I wasn't feeling well enough to cook on Thursday, and Friday The Kid and I went out to dinner before seeing "The Rain: A Tribute to the Beatles" at the Coliseum. But I was feeling better Saturday and up for some real cooking. So I made a chicken casserole and steam-in-the-bag baby peas with mushrooms.
The casserole is called Chicken Bruschetta Bake and it's made with chicken, tomatoes, and stuffing mix. The recipe, as I originally found it (and still make it) called for the diced chicken to be mixed with 1/4 cup Kraft Sundried Tomato viniegrette or other Italian salad dressing. I've never made it the "new" way, but I'm sure it's just as good.

.50 - canned tomatoes
