I think i'm late getting this to you for tonight but maybe you can use it for another night!.
make the dessert first so it has time to gel!. I usually prepare the desserts the night before so I don't have to hurry the next day!.
Take 1 large box of orange flavored jello and prepare it according to the instructions on the box in a medium sized bowl!. But when it says to use water use half orange juice for the cold water!. Now drain 2 small cans of mandarin oranges!. Grate 2 medium sized peeled carrots fine and after the jello is dissolved add the oranges and carrots with the jello and put in refrigerator to get firm covered with plastic wrap!.
If you have some Cool whip or Reddi whip topping it's great on this fruit flavored jello!.
For the main course how about chicken breasts cooked ahead of time roasted or boiled or braised with salt and pepper a little red pepper too for a kick!. Set aside after it's cooked and cooled for handling!. Tear apart into long pieces!. Two or three large pieces of chicken should be plenty
In a frying pan melt 4 tablespoons of butter or margarine and 4 tablespoons all purpose flour!. Dash of salt and pepper!. Stir until it becomes a paste on medium heat then lower the heat!.
Pour about 3 cups of milk in this mixture and stir with a whisk until it becomes thick on low heat it takes a few minutes but it will thicken!. You can use part chicken broth with the milk like 1 1/2 cups milk and 1 1/2 cups broth!. it will have more flavor this way!.
Chop up some green parsley about 2/3 cup and saute some mushrooms if you like them!. add this to the sauce!. Now add the cooked chicken and about 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated!.
If you want to serve egg noodles with this boil enough water and cook the noodles according to the directions on the package!.!.!.or do the same with rice!.
After it's done!.!.!.drain the noodles or rice and pour into a buttered baking dish then pour the chicken and sauce mixture over the noodles or rice!. Top with red spice paprika then bake in hot oven 375 degrees until hot and bubbling!.!.!.great with a green salad and Italian bread and that jello for dessert!.
