BBQ Chicken Tostadas

I put 4 chicken breasts in a crock pot and cooked it for 4 hours on high for my chicken, or you can boil chicken, then shred it. You can also buy Rotisserie Chicken and shred that, Will take at least 2 of those.

8 Tostada Shells

3 green onions finely chopped

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lay out the tostada shells on baking sheets. C combine the chicken and 1 cup of BBQ sauce in a small bowl and stir to coat. Divide the chicken between the tostadas shells and top with the cheese. (about a 1/4 cup) Put in oven for 8-10 minutes (or until cheese is melted and shells are crisp on ends). Remove from the oven and and drizzle remaining BBQ sauce. Sprinkle with green onions if desired. Can top with sour cream also.

Easy Baked Ziti

makes 2 8×8″ dishes or one 9×13″ dish

I used 2 disposable 8×8″ pans, as it makes for easier clean-up. You can freeze one.

1 16 oz. box mostaccioli or penne noodles
1 jar spaghetti sauce
1 pound cooked hamburger
1 16 oz. container ricotta cheese (optional)
1/2 c. sour cream
2 c. shredded mozzarella

Boil noodles a few minutes less according to box directions, you want them still a bit firm since they’ll continue to cook in the oven. While noodles are boiling, brown up the hamburger. Add the spaghetti sauce to the pan. Let cool a bit. In a big bowl, mix together the spaghetti sauce mixture, the ricotta, and the sour cream. Dump in the noodles & toss thoroughly to coat. Lightly spray your desired pan(s) and add the noodles, dividing equally if using two pans. Top with shredded cheese. If you’re baking it now, pop it in at 350° F for about 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and edges are bubbly. Otherwise, cover with plastic wrap, then aluminum foil and put it in the freezer til needed.
