Stroganoff CHICKEN

INGREDIENTS:

• 6 ounces (about 4 ½ cups) uncooked medium egg noodles • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into strips • 6 ounces sliced mushrooms (about 2 cups)

• 2 Tbsp butter (divided in half) • 1 medium onion, chopped (about ½ cup) • 1 can (10.5 ounces) Cream of Chicken Soup • ½ cup sour cream or plain yogurt

DIRECTIONS:

1. Cook and drain the noodles according to the package directions. While noodles are cooking, season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 Tbsp butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet. 2. Heat the remaining 1 Tbsp butter in the skillet. Add the mushrooms and onion and cook until tender. 3. Add the soup and heat to a boil. Return the chicken to the skillet (including pan juices) and cook until the chicken is done. Stir in the sour cream and cook until hot (don’t boil). Season to taste. Serve the chicken mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.

REMOVE DUST TO HELP YOUR HOME SMELL BETTER

Dust particles absorb moisture from the air and as it settles onto surfaces, floors and baseboards, it can create a musty smell in your home. Removing dust and vacuuming those hard to reach places where it may accumulate (like baseboards, under dressers, behind bookshelves, etc.) can definitely help improve the fragrance in your home. A practice to get in the habit of is to dust from top to bottom to ensure you get any settling particles. Use a damp rag or microfiber cloth instead of a feather duster to trap and remove dust as opposed to just spreading it around. If possible, open a window while dusting and vacuuming (and for a few minutes after) to help prevent particles from settling again. Maintaining proper humidity (30% to 50%) throughout the home can also help prevent dust from absorbing excess moisture and creating a musty smell.
