Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

So my husband asked if I could not only make Banana Bread, but make a 'Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread'.  I thought it sounded like a great idea, so I adjusted my favorite recipe to make my own combination, and it turned out great!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

3 very ripe bananas

1 cup sugar

1 stick margarine (I used light and it worked fine)

2 cups flour

2 eggs

3 Tbsp peanut butter

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

1/4 cup peanut butter chips

Mash bananas (a potato masher works well), and combine with sugar and margarine.  You can use a hand mixer if desired, but I just mix well by hand.  Add flour, eggs, peanut butter, vanilla, soda, salt, and cinnamon and mix well.  When ingredients are well combined, stir in chocolate and peanut butter chips.  You could also add nuts if you like, my husband is not a huge fan so I leave them out, but I would reccommend about 1/2 cup.  I baked mine in a bundt pan at 325 for 40 minutes (two loaf pans works well, also), but I have the feeling my oven here in AR cooks a little hot...so check your bread and cook longer if needed.

This turned out awesome...give it a try!

The Best Chicken Recipe

So tonight I will share what is my favorite chicken recipe of all time.  Sorry, no pictures, but I did just cook this, so it is fresh on my mind!

Wedding Chicken (Jayme's Version)
4-6 cooked boneless skinless chicken breast (baked works great)
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 8oz container of Sour Cream
1 sleeve crushed Butter Crackers (We all know our favorite round brand...but I have even used the chicken flavored crackers and they work great!)
1 stick melted margarine or butter

Dice chicken breast and arrange on the bottom of a greased 9x13 casserole.  Mix soups and sour cream together and cover the chicken with the mixture.  Top with crushed crackers, and drizzle melted butter/margarine on top.  Bake for 30 minutes at 350, or until crackers are browned and mixture is bubbly.  Your chicken is already cooked, so no worries about that!

This is ALWAYS a winner in my house...as it was when I was a child.  Serve with your favorite veggie or rice, its a nice mild dish that works well with most anything!
