    BUMP

    I do a different version of angel chicken

    6 chicken breasts
    1 can 10 3/4 oz cream of mushroom soup
    8 ounce of light/fat free cream cheese
    1/1 cup dry white wine
    1 cup mushrooms (more or less if you want)
    1/4 cup red onions
    1-2 garlic cloves
    1 Garlic and Herb seasoning packet

    combine and cook on low for 6-7 hours
    I will usually wait until there are only 2 hours left to add the mushrooms so the flavoring isn't cooked out of them. Serve over rice or pasta!

    Beef Stew

    2 lbs beef stew meat
    4 cups beef broth
    1/2 cup flour
    baby carrots (I don't measure)
    1/2 Green pepper, chopped
    1/2 cup red onion, chopped
    3-4 red potatoes, diced
    1/2 cup of mushrooms (optional)
    1 tsp of worcestershire sauce
    1-2 garlic cloves

    salt and pepper to taste

    Combine all ingredients in crock except for 1 cup broth and the flour. Cook on low for 7-8 hours. Before serving mix flour and broth together, pour into crockpot to thicken.

    I made this one a few weekends ago when we had friends over. It seemed to go over well with everyone. I lightened it up with using skim milk, 98% ff cream of whatever soup, 2% light cheese, and brummel and brown instead of butter.

    Cheddar Chicken
    Ingredients:

    6 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
    2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
    1 can cream of mushroom soup
    1/4 cup milk
    2 cups stuffing mix
    1/2 cup butter, melted


    Directions:

    1. Lightly grease Crock Pot or spray with cooking spray. Place chicken breasts in pot. Top with cheese.

    2. Combine soup and milk, stirring well. Spoon over cheese; then sprinkle stuffing mix on top. Drizzle melted butter over stuffing mix.

    3. Cook on low 8 to 9 hours or high 4 to 6 hours.

    Sounds great!

    Ive been using the progresso lite soups as a base/broth and add chicken, turkey, shrimp whatever you like or sounds good with the soup and slow cooking/crock potting it while at work, then serving over brown rice with a sm salad. The santa fe veggie pairs well with turkey leg meat....

    I had some skinless boneless chicken breasts and the kids were getting out of school early today. So i threw this together this morning so I could give them lunch easily when they got home. It turned out pretty good.

    5 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    1 can Campbells chicken condensed soup
    I packet McCormick Beef Stroganoff mix

    I wanted to add some frozen veggies but forgot.

    I boiled some pasta shells, broke up the chicken and spooned it over. I couldn't resist and made a sandwich for myself with some of the chicken. Yummy. It would probably go great with some quinoa or mashed potatoes too.

    Easy and verstile. I loved it.
