Noble Memoirs

New Recipes this week. I love trying new recipes all the time. I didn't like the sandwiches though, which was a bummer. I think it was because they were doused in butter. I don't like butter and I really can't stand it since my surgery. I don't have a taste for it. Curt says I also have a picky palate. Which is true. Curt really liked them, so maybe I will make them again soon and give them another try.


Spinach Artichoke Dip- We really loved this with Scoops. I always use the neufchatel cheese (fewer calories) in place of regular cream cheese while cooking and baking.

I'm loving the show, Good Things Utah, and that is where this recipe comes from.
Nicea's Favorite Fried Rice

1-2 chicken breasts or 10 Kirkland Chicken Tenders (from Costco), marinated in soy sauce and cut into pieces
4 scrambled eggs
1/2 onion, chopped 
2 carrots, thinly shaved
3/4 c. frozen peas or broccoli
*1/2 c. butter
1-2 garlic cloves, minced, or 1 tsp. garlic powder
2 c. white rice, cooked

(I just pulled the frozen chicken breasts out of the freezer, put them in a ziploc bag with soy sauce and let them marinade while they thawed out.) Cook marinated chicken in a little bit of olive oil. Add onions and saute until clear. Add carrots, frozen peas and broccoli. Cook until soft. Add cooked rice. In another pan, scramble 4 eggs and chop. Add to mixture. Melt 1/2 c. butter, add crushed garlic to butter, stir and add to rice. Mix all together well. *(Again, a little too much butter for me, but that's only because I really don't have a taste for it.)
