Our commitment to our customers is simple: Offer the highest quality products at the best price and back it with a 100% guarantee.

Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Bites for #SundaySupper
In the aftermath of so many national and worldwide tragedies it may seem strange or even offensive to some to think about celebrating. Lets keep the Holidays in perspective for a moment.
The Holidays are a time for family and friend get-togethers, office parties and social gatherings. It is also a time to reflect and appreciate all we hold dear.
With that in mind, I’d like to share a quick, simple appetizer that’s tasty and budget wise. These little bites pack a punch of flavor from just the addition of a little ranch dressing.
Cheesy Chicken Bites
Ingredients
1 package crescent rolls
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup broccoli florets, chopped
1/2 cup cheddar, shredded
1/2 cup ranch dressing
Preheat oven to 425
Unroll crescent rolls and cut each in half.
Add chicken, broccoli, cheese and dressing.
Wrap each corner around the middle and tuck ends under.
Sprinkle with paprika and parsley if desired. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet on an upper rack in your oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until dough is cooked.
Remove from oven and serve with a side of ranch dressing for dipping!
This week #SundaySupper is hosted by Conni of The Foodie Army Wife. The Sunday Supper Team put together a menu of drinks and party snacks to share at your festive occasion and help create new memories. Have a safe and joyous Holiday Season everyone!

Build a Better Gingerbread House part 2- construction
Here’s some tips for putting together a Gingerbread House to add to your Christmas display.
If you missed part one, you can find it here .
Use a good Royal Icing. Here’s a recipe from Alton Brown for a simple royal icing that works great!Royal Icing
Build your Gingerbread House on a solid foundation. I use cardboard covered with foil. You can cover the foil with icing when decorating.
Run a bead of icing along the foil. Put the back in place. Glue one side to the back with icing. Run a bead inside and outside the joint.
Hold the pieces together for a minute or two until icing starts to set.
Add a box for stability if needed.
Add the other side and front one piece at a time.
Wait at least an hour before attaching the roof. It doesn’t need to be a perfect peak. That’s what the icing is for!
Decorate with your favorite candies.
Most of all:
be patient
have fun
Finished yet? Fantastic. How about entering your Gingerbread House in our contest?
Its a random drawing for a cool Gingerbread House apron from Cynthia at Home Matters 1st.
