I am trying the Once-a-Month-Cooking and have ????

Wow! These marinades sound sooooo good. I've gotten into the habit of cooking/prepping food on the weekend, for use throughout the week, and these recipes will be perfect for that. Thank you so much for sharing. I think chicken breasts are on sale this week.

I clean my George Foreman the same way MerryPoppins described, and it works like a charm.

Wow -- this sounds so nice and easy. I'm going to have to give this "DUMP" business a try.

Finally got around to copying these. Deb, in the South of the Border one what should "½ vegetable or olive oil" read? 1/2 what? Thanks.

It is starting to snow in my neck of the woods....so I am going to fill the house with the smell of roasting garlic....my family will be so excited (and impressed!) Thanks to you all! Especially

Oops! I missed that. When I went back to check the original recipe, that's all I had. I can tell you, though, that from the others it's probably 1/2 cup.

However, I never use that much! If I put any oil in before freezing, I add 1/8 cup (2 Tablespoons). If I don't add it before freezing, I'll add 1/8 cup to the bag & squish it around just before putting on the grill - just to keep it from sticking. If I'm baking it, I usually spray the pan with my Misto if I skipped it earlier.

I think the oil separates & we limit our fat intake anyway.

I edited my original post now. Thanks!

Thank you.

Thanks for those marinade recipes. I especially like the fact they are not "cream of ~" recipes.

Here's a link of my fave OAMC site where I often refer back to the recipes : http://snider.mardox.com/OAMC.htm

Wow! What a terrific website, grlpwrd! I've bookmarked it for exploring, later, but I'm sure I'll visit it often. She's got lots of great info.

Looks like I will be busy tomorrow!

Several of the chicken marinades.

 

[Tarheel Tink]

Chicken was on sale today and I now have the first 3 Dump recipes in my freezer for a total of 9 meals for DH and I! They all sound great- I love Dump Cake so these are right up my alley.

Piratesmate- one question. For the cranberry recipe, where do you find cranberry juice? I can only seem to find the cranberry juice cocktail. Is it a frozen juice or jarred? Thank you for all of the recipes- I am very big on freezer storage and leftovers so I know that DH will kiss your hand should we ever meet!

That's how I do mine! We buy 3 or 4 family packs of boneless chicken & marinate it all! Mmmmm

About the cranberry juice....I'm pretty sure I did a copy & paste of those recipes rather than typing them from their original source. I never noticed that it just said "juice" not "cocktail". I've always just used the cocktail....although I'll often use the cran-raspberry. I think years ago you could buy cranberry juice in the frozen section, but I don't know if you still can.

 

[Tarheel Tink]

OK, so far we tried the Teryiaki (grilled, loved it! Be great for wings.), the Garlic Lime (wonderful), and the Creole (wonderful with beans and rice). DH is a fan and says thank you!

 

[GrayFal]

Bumping because I LOVE the concept of "all in the freezer bag" meals.
We buy the fresh chicken breasts at Costco and I always marinate them before I freeze them - this is taking it a step further....

Got any more, Deb???

 

[Tarheel Tink]

The Triple Citrus chicken is fantastic! Its also wonderful cold tossed in a salad. Only one "dump chicken" package left in the freezer- waiting for a sale on fresh boneless chicken breasts!

"I can't wait to try all these recipes for marinade, and I've just discovered using a George Forman grill. I still have trouble cleaning it after cooking chicken or steak with any kind of marinade (been using the bottled stuff), but that's a whole different topic!"

Try putting wet paper towels on grill and closing grill. Let it set for awhile and clean-up is easier.

Thanks for all the posts the recipes sound delicious. Can't wait to try them.
