About Me

Welcome to our blog!! This is a blog about our life, mostly from Jennifer's perspective. We were married in July 2007 at the Wynn Resort in Las Vegas and then sealed together for eternity in the Albuquerque New Mexico Temple in June 2009. We welcomed Ms. Ellie Sophia into our lives on February 9, 2010 and she is absolutely the light of our lives. Then we added Silas Ian on January 4, 2013 and his smile just brightens our days. We live in Rio Rancho, New Mexico where Justin works as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and I pursue my PhD in Nursing while being a stay at home mom! Life is so chaotic but we really couldn't ask for a more perfect life!

Golden nuggets

These little golden (chicken) nuggets are quite tasty and easy to make. I swear it takes like 15 minutes of prep and 20-30 minutes of baking. They are good for you too (I think!?!).

INGREDIENTS
3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 cup milk


DIRECTIONS
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2) Cut chicken breasts into 1 1/2 inch size pieces.
3) In a medium bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, cheese, salt, thyme and basil. Mix well. Put milk in a bowl for dipping the chicken into.
4) Dip chicken pieces into the milk first, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
5) Place well coated chicken pieces on a lightly greased cookie sheet in a single layer, and bake in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes. Turn the nuggets 1/2 way into the baking so they cook evenly on both sides.
