I really like the wooden red sleds from days gone by and all the memories of the Holidays sledding down hills. I’ve seen many red sled ornaments, decorated porch sleds and sleds used any Holiday decorating.

These red sleds I saw on Pinterest (Tidbits) and thought I would make some for our Christmas Table.

The Little Red Sled

Supplies Needed:

*Craft Sticks, 4 1/2 “x 5/8″ 1/12″, I found at Michaels
*Mini Craft Sticks, 2 1/2″ x 3/8″ x 1/12”

When you have cooked the chicken until no longer pink, add the following Sauce, saving about a 1/2 cup of sauce for the bottom of the 9×13 baking dish.
