This week I wanted to fix simple and quick dinners and I found this recipe from my good friend Patricia Nicholes. This is for all you working mothers and fathers. Thank you so much Patricia, we are having chicken noodle casserole.

It looks so good. I will serve it with a salad and a bowl of fruit, and it will be great.

Please send me your favorite recipe, along with a story or photo of the recipe if you have one, and I would love to put you in the kitchen with Sharon. Send the recipes to [email protected] or call me at 937-393-3456.

Have a great week!
