    I would suggest you get a crock pot. There are tons of great recipes on the internet for them, too!

    This recipe was just shared here last week! I haven't tried it yet, but plan to this weekend!!

    Chicken & Biscuits Casserole (aka deconstructed chicken pot pie)

    1 can Campbell’s 98% Fat Free Cream of Chicken Soup
    3/4 cup fat free sour cream, divided
    2 cups cooked chopped chicken
    1 pkg (16oz.) frozen mixed vegetables
    1 cup reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
    1 cup Bisquick Heart Smart baking mix
    3 Tbsp skim milk


    1. Preheat oven to 375.
    2. Combine the can of soup and 1/2 cup sour cream in 8” square baking dish. Add chopped chicken, vegetables, and cheese and mix until well combined.
    3. Mix Bisquick, remaining 1/4 cup sour cream and milk in a medium bowl and stir until dough becomes stiff.
    4. Drop 4 even mounds of biscuit dough over top of the chicken mixture. Bake on the bottom rack for 35 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.

    Yields 4 servings.

    The servings are extremely filling and come out around 400 calories, depending on the brand of ingrediets used.

    One of my faves has always been baked garlic and egg soup.

    (for four people)
    2 large white onions and 1 head of garlic peeled and fine diced
    handful of bread crumbs
    can of white butter beans
    chicken/veg stock
    4 eggs
    parsley , lemon juice, black pepper and a small grating of strong cheese or /and chopped grilled bacon

    sweat the onions and garlic in a teaspoon of olive oil until onions go translucent , add breadcrumbs and stir until juices and oil absorbed , add the stock, a teaspoon of lemon juice and the butter beans . Heat until bubbling then blend with a stick blender . Pour into 4 oven proof bowls and break an egg in each bowl. Put sprinkle of cheese etc on each bowl then put in preheated oven (180 c ) for five-eight minutes (until cheese melted and egg poached. sprinkle of chopped parsley and black pepper to serve.
    Absolutely ace for a cold, evil to serve to someone before a date !!
