Sesame Chicken Strips

Thanks to Taste of Home, I found another YUMMY & EASY chicken recipe!

Sesame Chicken Strips
1 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons dried minced onion
2 teaspoons ground mustard
1 cup crushed butter-flavored crackers (about 25 crackers)
1/2 cup sesame seeds
8 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (2 pounds)
sauce:
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons honey
In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, onion and mustard. In another bowl, combine the cracker crumbs and sesame seeds. Cut chicken lengthwise into 1/4 in. strips (I did them bigger). Dip strips into mayonnaise mixture, then into the sesame seed mixture.
Place in a single layer on a large greased baking sheet. I put down tin foil and sprayed that with PAM. Bake at 425 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until juices run clear. Combine sauce ingredients and serve with chicken strips. YUMMY!!

playing on the 4th of July

Evelyn started playing with the water cooler that held the soda's. All the other kids joined in. They were wet, but it kept them cool!
Evelyn loves going down slides! Whee
Whoops!! Susan dropped her jell-o salad all over the floor! It was a yummy salad (before the fall!)

Samatha's wedding

Justin's sister decided to get hitched. So, with only one week to plan, we came up with the dinner and decor. It turned out wonderful I think! Here I am making little bouquets for the little girls to hold.

more summer fun & Arizona

Evelyn & Jakie playing outside the college ranch where we held our family reunion.
Evelyn found this baby seat at her cousin's house and she loved getting in and out of it!
Aunt Sammi got married!! This is at her bridal shower. I gave her a "teddy" to help "Spice" up her wedding night...It was a package of gummi bears and some spices!

Grandpa's cabin

Evie loved eating marshmallow's. She liked them better raw and not roasted.

Justin whittled sticks for the kids to use.
The kids worked for hours building this fort. It turned out so good! They wanted to sleep in it, but it was a little too downhill to be comfortable.

Summer fun!

Grandpa put up the new water slide. Evie loved playing with her cousins in the water.
This was driving to southern Utah for the family reunion. She fell asleep with her legs up! So cute!
Grandpa put up the zipline at the cabin so the grandkids could try it out before the reunion. Evie didn't want to get off!
