With grilling in full swing, here is a very easy recipe. You can use the oven or put it out on the grill. This recipe comes from Rose Hill Community Church. It has some good recipes. When you open up the foil, have some sour cream, extra cheese, chopped green onions (or regular onions) in bowls so your family and guests can top with whatever they like. I also have put onions and green peppers with potatoes but that’s what we like for a different taste.
Meal-in-One Taco Chicken Dinner
4 chicken breasts
4 small potatoes, sliced thin
8 tablespoons salsa
shredded cheddar cheese
sour cream
4 teaspoon taco seasoning
• Cut four squares of foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Spread potato slices into the center of foil
• Top with one chicken breast.
• Sprinkle 1 teaspoon taco seasoning over each chicken breast.
• Then top with some cheese and 2 tablespoons salsa.
• Seal foil into little pockets.
• Bake each packet at 400 degrees for 40 to 50 minutes.
For your grill, cook until juices run clear and chicken is done.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream and any topping you desire.

TRIED ‘N’ TRUE: Healthy Granola Bars good for everyone
I always liked Granola bars. Also Granola, to eat by handful. Pat Coolley always keeps granola on hand to nibble on. I don’t like raisins so I use dried cherries or cranberries instead. Instead of brown sugar use Splenda or your choice. I also use sugar-free syrup. So my husband, Gene, can eat these bars, too. This recipe comes from Rose Hill Community Church.
