Basic Cream White Sauce

Ok, after eating "clean" for so long those canned cream soups are really gross, I just can't do it, so here are some easy alternatives.

MEDUIM (1 cup)
2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons all purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk

THICK (1 cup)
3 Tablespoons butter
4 Tablespoons all purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk

THIN (1 cup)
1 Tablespoon butter
1 Tablespoon all purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk

Note: try arrowroot powder instead of flour. I even substitute the butter with Wildtree Butter Grapeseed oil to get a better fat in our diet.

Directons:
Melt butter in saucepan over low heat.
Blend in flour, salt, and dash of white pepper if desired.
Whisk in milk all at once. NO LUMPS
Cook quickly, stirring constantly until mixture thickens and bubbles.

For cream soups add you flavor; use celery, mushrooms, asparagus, chicken, etc.

For cream of chicken soup you can use 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup chicken broth.

You can also try it with shredded cheese to make a cheesey sauce.

Crockpot Roasted Chicken

Super easy, and better than cooked in the oven.....

Make three balls of tin foil about the size of your fist and place them in the bottom of the crock pot.

Wash and dry the chicken and place it on top of the foil balls.

Add salt, pepper, herbs and spices to taste.

Cook on high for 1 hour, then turn to low and cook for 6 or more hours depending on the size of the chicken until done.

Asian Ginger Plum Pork Patties

1 Pound Ground pork
1 ½ teaspoon seasame seeds, toasted
1 tablespoon Wildtree Asian Ginger Plum Dressing & Marinade
½ Cup Panko Bread Crumbs
2 Tablespoons Wildtree Natural Grapeseed Oil

Mix pork, sesame seeds and Asian Ginger Plum Dressing and Marinade together and shape in four equal size patties. Coat each side of patties with Panko bread crumbs. Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the patties and cook for 3-4 minutes per side.

Garlic & Herb Chicken Breasts

6 Boneless, skinless Chicken breasts
