Jacki's Meal 33

I enjoyed this meal today with my parents and we all liked it.  I thought it was funny that the recipe for the Macaroni Salad served 12 and the recipe for the chicken was for 2 to 3 people :) I made the BBQ Macaroni Salad first and it was fairly time consuming. But we all liked it. I agree with Audrey that a few less diced red peppers and red onions would be good.  I followed the recipe as written.  The Oven-Fried Chicken had a really good flavor I thought. I agree also that less butter would be better and might make the chicken a little crispier.  I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs and they worked out great - very tender and moist.  I am having a hard time getting my cookies from the recipes in this book to turn out. I think it is the altitude. (Couldn't be me:) I added a little more flour but I needed to add a little more because they were quite flat. For the last sheet of cookies I added more flour and they turned out much better. I agree the butterscotch chips made them very sweet. I enjoyed making and tasting all of these recipes!

Glad you guys liked the meal. We used crisco & the cookies baked just fine, but that might not help you enough.
