Chicken Spaghetti

Great casserole, serves about 4 people.

CHICKEN SPAGHETTI

3 cups cooked cubed chicken
8 oz. cooked spaghetti (break into thirds before you cook it)
1/4 c. chopped green bell pepper
1/2 c. chopped onion
1/4 c. pimentos (optional; adds great color!)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/4 c. white cooking wine
2 c. shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
salt/pepper to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook spaghetti for 8-10 minutes, drain. In large bowl, combine chicken, cooked spaghetti, bell pepper, onion, pimentos, soup, wine, and 1 c. of cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Spread in a 9x13 dish and bake for 30 minutes. Take out of oven, sprinkle on remaining cup of cheese. Cook for an additional 15 minutes.

Serve with french bread! SUPER DELICIOUS!

*This is another great dish to make for couples who have just had a baby and need a meal! Reheats well.

Five-Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)*
a small splash of vanilla extract

1. Add dry ingredients to large coffee mug and mix well.
2. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
3. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
4. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract and mix again.
5. Put the mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
6. Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired. Serve with ice cream if you have it.

Serves two (unless you want a big piece).

*Substitute other flavors of chips if desired, such as butterscotch or peanut butter.

This is pretty good, but you need to eat it right away. It gets kind of brick-like if you let it sit. You really can make it in about five minutes, so now you can have cake any time of day or night!--Sarah
