Happy Mother's Day!

Happy mother’s day to all you mothers out there... a day late! 
This post is dedicated to my mom on her very special and well-deserved day.   She has probably been the most helpful person out of anyone throughout my diabetic life.  She is always the first person I call and most importantly gives me the best advice.
Besides her great sense of humor, scrabble skills, and knack for making just about anything, she can sure cook up a feast and make it look easy! For all you diabetics out there you know what I’m talking about.
One of favorite dinners my mom has passed down to me is her super easy Chicken Cordon Bleu.  Here’s what you need…
4 Chicken Breasts
1 Egg
8 Slices of ham
4 Slices of Swiss cheese
            1 Cup of breadcrumbs
Directions:  Preheat over to 350.  Mix egg into a small bowl.  Put breadcrumbs into small bowl.  Flatten chicken as much as possible.  Lay two slices of ham on chicken breast and then roll as tightly as possible and you may have to insert a toothpick to keep from unrolling.  Dip breast into the egg and then breadcrumbs and place into pan.  Place a piece of Swiss cheese to the top.  And repeat the same process for each chicken breast.  Bake for 30 minutes or until done.

P.S.  I too hope to be a Proverbs 31 women like my mother.
            “Her clothes are well-made and elegant, and she always faces tomorrow with a smile.  When she speaks she has something worthwhile to say, and she always says it kindly.  She keeps an eye on everyone in her household, and keeps them all busy and productive.  Her children respect and bless her; her husband joins in with words of praise: “Many women have done wonderful things, but you’ve outclassed them all!”  Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades.  The woman to be admired and praised is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God.  Give her everything she deserves!  Festoon her life with praises! – Proverbs 31 15:31
