Chicken Stuffed Shells

After spending week with my favorite Sarah in PA, I tried to copy one of her recipes.  (It didn't turn out 100% like hers, but it was still pretty good)

Chicken Stuffed Shells
1 box Jumbo shells
6 small or 3 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
Italian seasoning
1/3 head cabbage, chopped small
2 tbsp oil
mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 can of spaghetti sauce

Cook chicken with Italian seasoning and cut or shred. (I cook mine in water, then cut).

In frying pan, add oil and cabbage.  Cook cabbage until translucent.

 Add cooked cut up chicken. 

Boil the jumbo shells until tender. 

Drain.  In 9x13 pan, stuff jumbo shells with chicken.  Once all shells are stuffed, sprinkle each shell with cheese, cover liberally with sauce.  Cook for 20-30 minutes.  (Forgive me for not taking the end picture. They look like the shells on the Barilla box, but instead of a creamy cheesy filling, it is chicken/cheese filled).  Yumm-o!

Mulberries (Link to make some Mulberry Jelly)

While walking home from the post office yesterday, the kids and I stumbled upon some mulberry trees behind the common area in our backyard. 

Last year I heard from friends how yummy mulberries were and I kicked myself that I didn't run over and grab some while I could. 



So last night (in our good church clothes--as we were prepared for missions conference), the kids and I went out to grab some mulberries.  (I knew the color would stain, so we had our rubbermaid kitchen gloves on.)  Who knew it would be hard to pick berries with HUGE gloves on your hands??



I found an easy-to-make recipe...(I hope) for mulberry jelly, and the kids and I will be out today to round up some more berries. 

TIP---lay a tarp down and shake the tree over the tarp.  The berries will fall off and you will be able to gather more with less work!
