8 Secret Food Habits That Wreck Your Diet. Chicken Parmesan. Crispy Yogurt Chicken. I love chicken legs. So does Marlboro Man. So do the punks. This means I’m always looking for new and interesting ways to cook them, since I’ve fried so many chicken legs in my life, I could fuel Airforce One for a year with the leftover oil. Plus, although fried chicken is delicious, I get a little tired of it. I do! This is a yummy, quick way to spruce up chicken, and considering I threw the dish together with ingredients I already had on hand (translation: I had no food and was scouring the pantry and fridge for something warm and hot to fix for my ravenous family) it turned out beautifully.

The fact that I actually remember the year I started using Panko bread crumbs should give you some idea as to why I can’t remember my grandmother’s birthday or important things I have to mail. The Cast of Characters: Chicken (I used legs, but any piece of chicken will do), Plain, Unflavored Yogurt, Garlic, Parsley, Lemon Juice, Salt, Butter, and Panko Bread Crumbs. Behold the Panko bread crumbs.

Cheesecake Bars. I was in the mood for something cold and lip-smackingly sweet. Something I could sink my teeth into. Something to maintain my weight. So I made this treat with a few of my favorite things. Cheesecake. Chocolate. And these cookies. If you ever fly Delta, then you’ve probably had them before. They’re a crunchy, no-frills, sans chocolate type of cookie. So I thought they would be great to use for the cheesecake crust.

Throw the cookies into a food processor and chop them up into beautiful golden brown cookie powder. About 1 1/2 cups worth. Then add 3 tablespoons of brown sugar. Don’t you love how packed brown sugar looks? To make the crust, mix the cookie crumbs and brown sugar together. Mix up the cheescake ingredients and pour it on the crust. Oh yeah! Then bake it at 325 degrees for about 45 minutes. And let it cool. And try not to eat it. Then whip up some chocolate ganache to pour on top.

Oh yeah. Spread the chocolate evenly on top of the cheesecake and then refrigerate overnight. Mingmakescupcakes.yolasite. Grilled Cheese Academy.
