Chicken Parmesan Bake

My goal is to share a yummy Sunday recipe with you every week!!!!

INGREDIENTS:

• 12 ounces penne ziti (or any pasta shape)
• 2 cups shredded, cooked chicken (about 2 small chicken breasts)
• 1 (24 ounce)  Hunts spaghetti (original) sauce (Its my favorite)
• 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (I used 2% low fat)
• 1/3 cup freshly-grated Parmesan cheese (or the other is fine also)
• 1/4 cup packed fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped (or a couple of dashes of dried Italian herb) is great to!

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Cook the pasta in a large stockpot of well-salted boiling according to package instructions. Drain. Return pasta to the stockpot and add chicken and tomato sauce. Gently toss to combine until the pasta is evenly coated.
3. Pour half of the pasta into a greased 11x7-inch or 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, half of the Parmesan cheese and half of the basil. Layer the remaining half of the pasta evenly on top. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese.
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and just barely starts to turn golden. Remove and sprinkle immediately with the remaining Parmesan cheese and fresh basil. Serve warm.

Super fun idea for class room "Healthy Treats"

BRAZILIAN LEMONADE!

This drink is so yummy! Check out the recipe below!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 large limes, thin skinned
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup cold water
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 4 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
• Ice

DIRECTIONS

1. Cut the limes in half and squeeze out the juice. You should have approximately 1/2 cup juice. Keep the rinds and set the juice aside.
2. In a blender, combine the juiced rinds with 2 cups of water. Blend for one minute until the mixture is coarsely mixed and frothy (if you make this start to finish and feel the mixture is too bitter, try only blending this part for 30 seconds or 10-12 pulses). Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer set over a liquid measuring cup or bowl, pressing on the solids to extract all the juice. You should have about 3/4 cup liquid, more or less. Stir in the reserved lime juice. (You can go ahead and discard the pulp in the strainer.)
3. To the blender, add the cold water, sugar, lime juice mixture, and sweetened condensed milk. Blend for 10-20 seconds. Add ice as desired: I added probably about 2-3 cups of ice - enough to make it cool and frosty but not thick like a smoothie. Blend until smooth. Add more sweetened condensed milk or sugar to taste, if needed. Serve immediately.
