Spaghetti Braid Bread

I used homemade pizza dough. Next time, I will probably use a thicker dough. The pizza dough wasn't quite hearty enough to hold the spaghetti well.

1 pkg Kraft Fresh Take Cheese and Breadcrumb Mix, Rosemary and Roasted Garlic Flavor
1 egg, beaten
6 pork chops, 1/2" thick

Dip pork chops in egg. Coat both sides with Fresh Take mix. Place flat in freezer bag, so that no pork chops are stacked. Freeze flat.

Thaw completely. Bake on 375 for 28-30 min. or until cooked through. Do not turn during baking. If pork chops are thinner, cook for less time.

Cream Cheese Chicken Chili

http://www.plainchicken.com/2012/01/slow-cooker-cream-cheese-chicken-chili.html

**I modified this by using split chicken breasts (Food Lion had a wonderful sale) and cooking them on the stove in boiling water. Then I shredded the chicken and put all the ingredients on the stove to cook together.

Enjoy!
