Favorite Ingredients Friday - Sandwich Edition

It's been a while since I participated in the Favorite Ingredient Friday posts, I can't believe I had totally spaced out on this. Anyway, I'm here again and ready to share a recipe. This is one that I've made many times before, it's quick and easy and it's really good........hubby and the kids love it and it's also great for a treat when the kid's friends come over.

I had some cysts removed from my wrist a few days ago and it hurts to type so I'm being lazy and I'm sharing the actual magazine scan for the recipe with you......I'm ashamed, I'm sorry, but at least you get to see the picture and all the other interesting info right????

Anyway, if you want to play along go on over to "Overwhelmed with Joy" and add your name to Mr Linky :)

Sandra's Jambalaya

This was a quick meal that I came up while trying to use leftover chicken and smoked sausage. I threw a couple of seasonings together and some rice and VOILA, it came out really good.

SANDRA'S MOCK JAMBALAYA

1 lb chicken tenders, cut into bite size chunks (or if you have leftover roast chicken you can use that)
1 lb smoked sausage, sliced
1 small onion, diced
1 1/2 cups of prepared rice (I usually cook mine separately and then add it to the pan).
Old bay seasoning to taste
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsps crushed garlic
1 bay leaf
chicken broth

I start off by putting about 1 tbsp of olive oil in a pan. Then I add my onions, chicken and sausage and my seasonings. Cook it over medium heat until chicken is brown and cooked through, add about 1 cup of chicken broth and continue cooking for about 15 minutes. You may need to add more broth to keep it from sticking. Like I said, just eyeball here.
Once that is done, you take your cooked rice and add it to the pan. Stir everything together and check the seasonings, may need more salt or old bay seasoning etc. Remove from heat, remove the bay leaf, sprinkle with fresh parsley and that's it.

Dump Cake

This is one of those recipes that I use when everyone is in the mood for a sweet dessert that is quick and easy to make.

DUMP CAKE

• 1 (20 ounces) can crushed pineapple, undrained
• 1 (21 ounces) can prepared more fruit cherry pie filling
• 1 (18.25 ounces) box yellow cake mix
• 2 sticks of butter or margarine, each cut into 12 slices
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (your choice - optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (325 for glass baking dish). Have a 9 by 13-inch baking pan ready.

Dump undrained pineapple baking dish or pan and spread it out evenly.

Using a spoon, dump globs of cherry pie filling evenly on top of the pineapple.

Sprinkle the cake mix evenly over the cherry and pineapple layers.

Cut butter into slices with a butter knife and place slices evenly over cake mix.

Sprinkle nuts on top if you're using them.
