Chicken & Dressing

Hey Guys!

Thank you so much for your response to the Two Tone Pie! Some have asked what we did for the entree. Well, I’ll tell you – you can’t keep a Southern girl away from traditions. So with that in mind I came up with a “corn bread” dressing from you youth. Bon appetite, Y’all – Mama Kat

Almost Southern Chicken & Dressing. Serves 4.

Crush 28-oz white tortilla chips to a fine crumb. Sprinkle with 2 tsp chicken bullion (we get it out of a Chicken Ranch Noodle mix,) 1 large palm of dehydrated onion, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp cumin.sage powder(out of the Thai soup mix.) Mix ingredients, cover with boiling water and let sit gor 1 hour to hydrate.

Stir in 4 bags of diced chicken breast, 2 7-oz bags of corn (including the juices) and season with salt and dices jalapenos to taste. Make sure it’s very moist. Pour into a cooking dish and microwave 4-minutes. Turn the dish and cook for another 4 minutes. Let sit for 30-minutes and serve/

Holidays behind bars doesn’t mean we don’t enjoy the time spent with friends we have made. With a little creativity we can get pretty close to traditional meals with the little we have to work with from the store.  (Read the rest of the story and the recipe below or click here.)

    I love the artwork “Saddle Still Life” by Taffy. It is really amazing. It captures the feel of the old wild west.

    Love seeing the art online and great that it contains poetry, paintings, sketches and even recipes! Taffy is my one and only cousin and her art work is stunning! I got to see the “Saddle Still Life” in person….very detailed and beautiful! Hope that some more art work can make it onto the site!
    Keep up the good work!

      Many of these pieces are out for display so I’m not sure if Lone Starfish is still available. I have requested an update and will let you know as soon as I hear back from the exhibit curator.
      Thank you for your interest

      Lone Starfish is still available. Since many of this artist’s pieces are being shown in galleries, we are required to charge the same prices as the galleries. This piece is priced at $65, plus packing and shipping.

    Is this artwork made by currently incarcerated women or previously incarcerated? If currently incarcerated, are they allowed to keep the money when they sell a piece, and how or where do they submit their work to get it displayed on your web site?

      The artwork is by women currently incarcerated, The money is deposited directly into their personal account. Prior to COVID-19 lockdown, it was possible for inmates to have their art inspected and left for pickup at the prison package facility. That is no longer happening.

    I don’t see any artwork from Jodi. Isn’t she painting anymore?
