Honey Glazed Chicken Drumsticks, Mashed Potatoes and Cauliflower with Cheese Sauce

Honey Glazed Chicken Drumsticks
12 chicken drumsticks
1/2 C. honey
2 cloves garlic, minced fine
1/2 C. soy sauce
4 Tbsp. vegetable oil
Remove skin from chicken and cut off all fat. Combine sauce, honey, oil and garlic. Coat chicken pieces. Refrigerate for 2 hours to marinate. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line pan with foil. Place chicken on foil and bake 25-45 minutes or until cooked through.

Mashed Potatoes
6 potatoes
4 Tbsp. butter
1 cup sour cream
milk
Adobo seasoning to taste
Peel potatoes and quarter. Boil in enough water to cover potatoes until potatoes are tender. Drain. Mix all ingredients except milk and mash with a potato masher or large fork. Add enough milk to make potatoes creamy. If you like very creamy mashed potatoes you can use a mixer to get a good whipped consistency. If you like lumpy potatoes, I recommend using a fork or potato masher to maintain a more solid consistency. If you want a healthier version, omit sour cream, mix with skim milk and add butter buds for flavor.

Cauliflower with Cheese Sauce
1 med. cauliflower
2 C. milk
4 Tbsp. butter
4 Tbsp. flour
1 1/2 C. cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 tsp. salt
Steam the cauliflower , until tender, about 12-15 mins. While cauliflower is cooking make a white sauce, by melting butter, and then adding flour. Add milk gradually. Cook slowly until thickened, stirring constantly. When thickened, remove from heat, and add grated cheese, and salt. Serve cheese sauce over cauliflower.

Happy Homemaker Monday
