Skillet Gnocchi and Chard and Chicken

"So let it be written. So let it be done." The Ten Commandments is one of my favorite movies.

Anyway, I had found a recipe on EatingWell.com for Skillet Gnocchi with Chard and White Beans. As I was gathering the ingredients I realized I did not have the white beans, I had used them in the Pasta Fagioli I made last week. Not a problem, I added Chicken and did not use beans. Actually I got everything together and Chris made dinner. I was busy with Chocolate Chip Cookies. It was a delicious one pot meal.

So today being Holy Saturday I had to do some Easter baking. Chris likes Rice Pie and last year I found a great recipe for Traditional Italian Rice Pie at Food Blogga. The crust is great to work with and the results look good. We will wait until tomorrow to taste it. As you can see from the photo below Kramer is very much the kitchen cat.

While on the subject of crusts there was a recipe in the new Bon Appetit that I had to try. Strawberry Pop Tarts! I loved Pop Tarts when I was a kid. I filled these with Blackberry and Vanilla preserves and added Mascarpone Cheese to some. We will try them tomorrow with breakfast.
