Hello,
Thanks to Robin, Kathy, and Valery for today's recipes. I hope all of you in the U.S. had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. We had a nice once with my children and grandchildren, my sister and brother-in-law. I ate too much. For those of you who haven't read Doggy's poem (it's very appropriate for today and a good laugh), here's a link:

Does anyone have a recipe for Cajun Crab Dip they would like to share?
I had it recently at Tom Thumb Grocery store. Very tasty. Needs to have less additives.
Thanks,

Brown chicken cutlets, set aside
Saute celery, zucchini, onions and garlic Do not let garlic brown, it gets bitter
Add chicken back to pan Add rosemary, basil, salt and pepper to taste Add black olives Add 1/2 can tomatoes( squish to remove juice) Put 1 cube Knorr Vegetable Bullion (one cube makes 2 cups bullion) into one cup HOT water to dissolve. Add to pot

I use Knorr Vegetable bullion for everything, it has a wonderful flavor and goes well with all types of meat.
