I created two new recipes, one served hot and one cold...

both beginning with my favorite way to prepare chicken.

-5 frozen boneless, skinless, chicken breasts

-1 small bottle Italian dressing

-1/2- 3/4 cup Allegro Original Marinade

-cook on low in crock-pot for 6-7 hours

for the hot:

-1 large bag wide egg noodles- cooked per bag instructions

1. melt stick of butter in a skillet, add carrots, onions, celery

and saute until tender

2. in a large pot combine chicken broth, "drippings", shredded chicken,

for the cold:

Jill's Chicken Salad
