    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.

    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.

    So many good recipes to try. I did use my crockpot recently for the chicken taco with salsa, lime juice, taco seasoning. Turned out very good.

    I'm making Scotch Broth in mine at the moment.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/scotchbroth_8116

    I used a potato instead of the turnip and didn't put the kale in (because I didn't have any and couldn't be bothered going to the shop).

    The recipe calculator puts it at about 135 calories a bowl

    Edit: It serves 6.

    + 1 for those broken bookmark days. :)

    Thanks to all who've added to these great threads...Crockpots are so helpful and so much can be done with them.

    I wince when I see a 'cream of soup' ingredient in a recipe anymore because since eating healthier I try to watch the sodium more carefully so I usually slowly skim over those thinking.......mmmm LOL

    But it doesn't mean I don't remember how yummy it all tasted back in the day with the canned soups.

    I do have a 'cream of soups' dry ingredient recipe (I'll share it when I get a moment if anyone is interested) that you add water to that works the same way but has a bit healthier ingredients in it.. I really need to make up some batches of the powder and stick them in the cupboard for recipes like these. Because...porkchops <3

    I'm interested in your dry soup recipe, thank you! I also try to watch my sodium and really miss the days of using canned soup :(
