Friday......leftovers

Saturday.....Pork Ribs in the crock pot with baked beans and potato casserole and deviled eggs

Sunday.......This recipe is what Miller calls "Tomato Cheese Chicken"...or I call it Mozzarella Chicken....either way both my kids love it and its cheap. Ill serve this with green beans and either a wheat pasta or over cauliflower rice (bought frozen)

Chicken Breasts...thawed
Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
1 can of tomato sauce...enough to cover all chicken

Add chicken to a baking dish, cover with tomato sauce...bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes until chicken is done. Add heaping scoops of cheese to each breast, bake another 10 minutes or until its melted.
Serve alone or on pasta of choice
