Quick n’ Easy Chicken Most of us are always looking for “easy” recipes to make. This one is easy and low in fat and calories… perfect for the “weight conscious”! For 4 chicken breasts (2 cut in half), mix 4 TBSP of Watkins Onion Soup & Gravy with 2 tablespoons Watkins Mushroom Soup & Gravy and add enough orange juice to make a thin paste. Baste over chicken. Bake covered for 45 to 60 minutes at 375°. Serve with white or brown rice.To flavor the rice, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of Watkins Chicken, Onion and/or Mushroom Soup and Gravy Bases to the water before cooking.

Tropical Chicken Salad
For a NEW way to make chicken tasty, baste chicken pieces with Tropical Salsa and bake at 350ºF for 45-55 minutes. This is delicious and the chicken is very moist. Serve over rice or with Garlic Mashed Potatoes (easy with Watkins Liquid Garlic Spice). |
 Did
you know ....... that in 1868, J.R. Watkins introduced
the very first documented money-back guarantee in North American history?
He had his special "Trial Mark" bottles molded so that customers could try
a good amount of his famous Red Liniment. If they were not happy
with it, they would stop at the Trial Mark. The next time J.R. made
his rounds, he would buy the bottle back at full price. Today,
ALL of Watkins products come with a full 100% Satisfaction
Guarantee ... although we don't enforce the Trial Mark rule any more!
... what makes Watkins Gourmet Spices and Seasonings so good? It's what is NOT in them - Watkins does not add any "fillers" in any of our pure spices and seasoning blends! Fillers can be extra bits of husks, leaves or stems, and any manufacturer can add them - as long as they come from the same plant, tree or bush as the spice itself. By not adding the traditional fillers that many supermarket and bulk brands add, Watkins spices could actually be considered "concentrated" by comparison! ... that Watkins Vanilla Personal Care Products are scented with real
Watkins Vanilla Extract? ... so that's why people just want to "eat
you up" when you wear them!
... that "Mary had a little lamb, it's fleece was white as snow; And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go" is regarded as the best-known four lines of verse in the English language? And the words "Mary had a little lamb," spoken by Thomas Edison on November 20, 1877, into his latest invention, the phonograph, were the first words of recorded human speech? Imagine that! |

Iron Out Your DifferencesSpring is just around the corner and
that means it's time to get out the spring clothes and iron away the
wrinkles in your cottons and linens. Most people keep a spray bottle of
water next to the ironing board to help release wrinkles from clothes, but
tap water can often leave noticeable mineral deposits, particularly on
bright colored spring fabrics, and water may leave a stale aroma when left
in the bottle.

Quick and Healthy Tips!
Food value of dried fruit:
While all dried fruit is good for you, dried plums are antioxidant superstars, being among the highest fruits in total antioxidant activity. Antioxidants work to prevent cancer, heart disease, cataracts, and other diseases associated with aging by mopping up the free radicals that damage cells. |

April
... we've all heard the saying that "April showers bring May
flowers" ... but we think that those famous showers do so much
more! After a long winter, that for many of us includes a
lot of salt and sand, it's so refreshing to see the streets and
the world in general get a good and thorough cleaning, leaving
the way clear for those tiny buds of May to poke open their
little heads and drink in the sunshine.
Combine
Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise) and Tropical Salsa. Set aside. Dice or shred
chicken. Combine chicken, pea pods, carrots and onions. Mix dressing into
chicken/vegetable blend. Put lettuce on plate(s), mound chicken salad on top of
lettuce, sprinkle with chopped nuts. Listen for the mmmm!
Kitchen
Tips and Tricks!
Placing
a cake that has just come out of the oven on a damp cloth for a couple of
minutes will help it come loose from the pan and prevent sticking.
To
have a nice flat cake top, cut a piece of toweling the width of the cake
pan, and long enough to wrap around and overlap slightly. Wet the towel
strip and place it around the cake pan, pinning or fastening it snugly.
Bake cake as usual (no, it won't burn). Your cake will be nice and even on
top because the edges cook at the same rate as the rest of the cake.
creative
and raid the pantry. Some tasty alternatives that will usually work
well mixed into any chocolate chip cookie recipe include: raisins, dates,
coconut, nuts, chopped candy bars, toffee bits and dried fruits.
In a
mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, strawberries and confectioners’ sugar
until combined. Spread about 2 tablespoons on one side of half the bread
slices; top with remaining bread. Place sandwiches in an ungreased 13-in.
x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. In a bowl, beat the eggs, cream and vanilla.
Pour over the bread. Turn each sandwich. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours
or overnight. With a slotted spatula, transfer sandwiches to a
greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Discard any remaining egg
mixture. Bake at 375° for 15 minutes; turn and bake 10 minutes
longer or until golden brown. (Makes 10 servings)
