Watermelon Lemonade

What speaks summer more than a combination of these two things?

The very sound of Watermelon Lemonade makes my mouth water! 

 (originally from Martha Stewart).

WATERMELON LEMONADE
 2 Lemons, quartered
1 cup fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 medium seedless watermelon flesh cut into chunks.

Squeeze lemons into a large pitcher; add squeezed lemon quarters. Add mint and sugar; mash with a wooden spoon until mint is bruised and sugar is dissolved.

In a blender, puree watermelon in batches until smooth: pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher (you should have about 8 cups juice). Stir to combine. Serve over ice. Refrigerate covered for up to 3 days.

Enjoy!

**This would make delicious popsicles or slushees!! Yummy Yummy!

Chicken Cutlets......

This is my twist on Chicken Cutlets.

Chicken Cutlets is tradition in my family , it is just usually tossed

in some egg and breadcrumbs. I wanted to make chicken cutlets one night, so I

decided to make it. I was completely blind going in on this cuz it was my 1st time making it

 but my sweet baby Jesus. It was delicious!!

 

The Goods:

Boneless Chicken Breast

3 Eggs

Breadcrumbs

Lots of Lemons ( if wanted) I did not use it this time

Olive Oil

 

What to do now:

Coat the boneless chicken breast in some egg.

Then toss is around in the breadcrumbs to completely coat it. Set aside. Repeat for all your chicken.

Now heat up a pan with some olive oil.

Place in your chicken breasts in pan

and cook for 5-10 minutes.

Then turn over and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes.

after done

Place your cutlets on a paper towel lined plate to soak up any excess oil.

While your cutlets are soaking, squeeze the juice from half a lemon on the bottom of

a baking/casserole dish.then place in there so the bottom are getting the lemon too.

Then squeeze the other half onto the chicken. I had double the amount of chicken then what is

shown, so I cut up an additional lemon and used it as well.

 

Finish off by topping it with thin lemon slices and parsley flakes(if wanted)

Why does everything taste better with lemon? Seriously, everything.

It is the bacon of the fruit family.

I absolutely love lemon paired with chicken. It brings out so much

flavor

I hope you enjoy this as much as we do!!!!!

Your sudden death will be totally worth it.
