  • 1/2 cup flour

  • 1 cup seasoned panko bread crumbs

Cook the pasta in boiling salted water for 10 minutes then drain in a colander.
(Even better if you have a sweet husband like me to help you cook!)
My baby girl Ava sat in her highchair 
(and chewed on her tag blanket!) like a big girl while we cooked.
Set up a breading station for the chicken: beaten eggs, seasoned panko breadcrumbs, and flour.
First dip the chicken in the egg. Then lightly in the flour and sake off excess. Then back into egg.
Let egg mix drip off some so it’s not heavy then finally roll in panko and place on a plate. 
Now your chicken is ready to cook!
 
Don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty! Breading chicken isn’t as intimidating as it may look. But here’s a tip: Use one hand as your “wet” hand to dip the chicken in your egg and flour mix then your other hand as the “dry” hand to dip in the panko. This way you won’t have one hand that is messy and crusted with everything!
Brown the breaded chicken on both sides (but don’t cook through) 
then move to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
Pour a jar of tomato pasta sauce (any flavor) in the bottom of a 9X13 baking dish.
Then mix in half a container of Philadelphia Cooking Creme in Italian Herb flavor.
Here’s my secret ingredient: Philadelphia Cooking Creme! Find it in the cream cheese section. 
If you can’t find it us a cream cheese spread and mix with Italian seasoning and/or fresh herbs
Doesn’t this look delicious already?! Creamy, cheesy pasta goodness!
Now lay the breaded chicken strips in two rows on top of the pasta 
in the baking dish.
Sprinkle with shredded Italian mix cheese and bake for 20 minutes for until chicken is cooked through and cheese is melted.
Here it is, all bubbly and gooey: Lay on the Charm Chicken Parm!
Serve this at your next dinner party and you’ll impress even your toughest critics!

#WhatchaReadingWednesday (🤦‍♀️ summer schedules got me a day late...)
👑 📖 👑📖👑📖👑📖👑📖👑
I just finished "Spare" by Price Harry and it may just be the best and most heartbreaking memoir I have ever read. He tells his story as the 'spare to the heir', starting at 12 when his beloved mother Princess Diana passed away, up until 2022. I started with the hardback book but then after a few chapters, I switched to the audiobook version from the library. I always recommend audiobooks of memoirs and autobiographies if they are read by the author. I think it makes it so much more personal and moving to hear their story in their voice. Harry is a great storyteller with a lot of emotion and blunt honesty. I teared up and gasped out loud during many of his stories. He truly is misunderstood and this book opened my eyes to what a thoughtful and genuine person he really is. I highly recommend reading "Spare". 
⭐️ Did you know "Spare" broke the Guinness Record for the fastest-selling nonfiction book? It sold 1.4 million on its release day and has currently sold 3.4 million! 
💕It is a little over 400 pages (15+ hours on audiobook) with 232 chapters.
