Lightly Breaded Please!
Sharing one of my easy to make comfort food recipes.

You know, chicken is one of my favorite comfort foods that is so easy to prepare? If I was a vegetarian, I would seriously miss my baked chicken!

When I was married, we had chicken thighs a couple of times during the week. However, they were usually prepared on the outside gas grill or inside on our finished patio on the fancy Jenn-Air Barbecue Grill.

Chicken thighs are so versatile to prepare. I love their perfect little size that you can use a knife or eat them with your fingers.

I personally like to use Vigo Italian Style Bread Crumbs for my breading. You'll find a lot of prepared breading mixes at your grocers, but this is the one I use! Along with the same brand of olive oil.

Plus, my main side dish has long been one of the Uncle Ben's packets of rice. They only take 90 seconds in the microwave and really are quite good. Lately, I've been enjoying the Quinoa and Brown Rice with Garlic. It has quite the interesting texture! ~ The Comfort Foods Ambassador, Jaguar Julie!

A Closer Look at the Ingredients!
You get an idea how simple this is to prepare!

ingredients for breaded baked boneless skinless chicken thighs

You know, I've been using the Vigo brand of products for years. It seems to make sense to use those bread crumbs with their olive oil. Rather a synergistic effect on taste; Italian Style!

I Love Corningware and Corelle!

Who doesn't love Corningware, I ask? Would you believe, I think my set is over 40 years old! I seriously can't believe it ... they say this stuff is indestructible and that it will probably outlive you and me. I believe it!

I am one of the many home cooks who rely on my Corningware casserole set for baking. The cornflower pattern is like a vintage collectible. I think it is a right of passage that each homemaker start off with such a set.

Yellow Squash Dressing Recipe

My yellow squash dressing recipe is a cross between a traditional yellow squash casserole and a dressing. It is a delicious recipe that puts a twist on the typical squash casserole recipe. I whipped this very tasty yellow squash dressing dish up for our family's Thanksgiving dinner. It's a delicious side dish or dressing alternative for stuffing your Thanksgiving turkey. Gobble Gobble.

That nutty yellow squash dressing was such a hit with all the relatives who asked for my best-ever recipe for a side dish that's more than a casserole and oh so deliciously tasty!

You don't need to wait for Thanksgiving to roll around to prepare some of it for yourself. Think nutty; think outside the proverbial box.

I LOVE Le Creuset Stoneware

I love it for making my Yellow Squash Dressing! I used a rectangular stoneware dish for baking my yellow squash dressing. It is similar to the Le Creuset Stoneware Rectangular Dish, 10.5 by 7-Inch.

Limited Lifetime Warranty. Safe for oven use up to 500 degrees F. Attractive dish can go from freezer to microwave or oven to table. Poterie glaze will not absorb odors or flavors; resists chipping or staining.

I ALSO Love Corningware!

You might have noticed this dish in my photos? I use the corningware all the time. Great for reheating and using in the microwave too!

I recommend the Corningware StoveTop 4-pc Pyroceram Blue Cornflower Casserole Set.

Would you believe? I have had mine for over 40 years.

It is nearly indestructible. Probably the wisest investment I ever made. 


The Yellow Squash Dressing Debate!
Have you eaten this before? Say you chefs! Google yellow squash dressing. I'm always experimenting with my recipes, particularly in a casserole dish. This blend of ingredients was so good that I knew I needed to do a lens on it! Have you tried a yellow squash dressing dish yet?

There was just enough left of my yellow squash dressing for me to take it into the office for our group to sample. They loved it!

"Folks! I have to tell you honestly that doing a bit of experimenting, I came up with a recipe for Yellow Squash Dressing that really works! It's a delicious deviation from the regular yellow squash recipes AND dressing recipes too!" --The Brand Ambassador JaguarJulie!

Grow Your Own Yellow Squash!!

It's very rewarding to grow your own yellow squash from seeds!

There were a variety of yellow squash seeds available, but I opted for the Ferry-Morse 3203 Organic Squash Seeds, Early Yellow Summer Crookneck.

I like the idea of using organic seeds for food products. The USDA organic yellow crookneck squash seeds are ready to harvest in 53 days.

Plant 1-inch deep, 3-foot row spacing, and 4-foot plant spacing. Couldn't be any simpler!

Do you love yellow squash?
Love dressing? Got a recipe to share? Maybe tried something like this? I love to hear from my readers! Especially those of you out there who CAN cook and who do actually experiment with their recipes and not copy and paste from the internet -- know what I'm saying???
