Everyone I know is having a baby right about... now.
Thus the reason for this post.
I can't drop off another hotdish of sorts to a new Mom, knowing that she has a freezer full from the rest of the good women in our ward who bring by a dish in the attempt to get the first look of the new bundle of joy.
I'd love it if I were creative & could come up with some amazing dishes for such occasions, but I've faced the music & it ain't pretty.
So here is my desperate plead, for everyone to post what they take to family with a new baby. All those tried & true recipes... you know the ones.
In return for yours, I'll share mine.
Chicken Salad
2-3 cups of small shells pasta
4 cups cooked diced chicken
2-3 stalks of diced celery
1-2 cucumbers diced
1/2 cup of mayonnaise
2 cups of grapes, cut in half
1 cup of salted almonds or cashews
salt & pepper
After the chicken & pasta shells have cooked & cooled, mix everything together with the mayonnaise. Salt & Pepper to taste & enjoy.
You really can't go wrong with this one, that is why it's a favorite of mine.
Yu-um.
