District Lunch at the apartment

Jan 25, 2020 - Last district meeting for this transfer so we timed the district lunch at our apartment as a last meal with some of the missionaries who will be transferring.  Since Elder Daley has to eat gluten-free, I ordered a gluten-free chocolate chips cookies mix from Amazon Japan.  Here is a photo of a dozen cookies cooling off.  The cookies turned out well.  Sister Lee made the salad and cooked the vegetables.  I did the dessert, cookies for Elder Daley and brownies for the rest of the gang.  I did the main course as well, cheesy chicken broccoli casserole.  Since our microwave also serves as oven but being small, we went with cooking the casserole via a slow cooker to be able to feed the 12 of us.  Had to double the recipe.  The recipe said uncooked rice and either cooked or uncooked chicken.  Mistake!  We came back to the apartment and discovered rice not cooked and the chicken was only half cooked.  Learned the hard way that doubling the recipe was putting too much strain on the slow cooker.  Future attempts will be to pre-cook the rice and chicken.  Thankfully, we came home 1/2 hour early to cook the vegetables so we scrambled to cook the casserole outside in a large pot.  We managed and the casserole turned out to be a hit.



Elder Daley said I needed to be in the picture so he took this last photo.
