Thread: Recipes we love

Okay so I thought I would start a thread where we could share recipes and then ask admin to sticky it for us.

Here are some of my favorite crock-pot recipes:

Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup
(From Sandra Lee)

1 store bought roasted chicken
1 bag of frozen stew mix vegetables (potatoes, carrots, celery and onions)
4 (14 oz) cans of reduced sodium chicken broth
2 cans of cream of mushroom soup
salt and pepper
2 tsp Fine Herbs (I can never find this at my grocery store, so I use 2 tsp parsley instead
2 cups cooked egg noodles

Remove the skin and shred the chicken from the bones. Place vegetables and chicken into crock-pot. Mix chicken broth and cream of mushroom soup then pour over vegetables and chicken. Add seasonings and stir. Cook for 3-4 hours on high OR 8-9 hours on low. Before serving, add egg noodles and stir.

Ohhhhhh I have an awesome Swedish apple pie that's perfect for TG and the holidays. I'll find it and paste in a minute!

Stacey I was thinking this would be a great idea, too. I'm so glad you posted it. I never know what to make for dinner anymore, and I'm so tired of trying to figure out something that my boys will eat. I have a couple favorites I'll have to dig out - 2 chili recipes (1 is really easy) and a chicken recipe that's easy and great to serve for a dinner when you want to try to impress someone. OH! and deserts! I have lots and lots of desert recipes. I'll be back . . . . . . .

Yay for all the recipes!!!

I have tons at home that I'll post tonight

I need some with lots of veggies...that's my problem, getting good tasting veggies in.

This is such a fun idea.

Roasted Chicken - better than what you can buy at the store

1 whole chicken
2 Tbs olive oil
2 Tbs rosemary
2 Tbs Worsh. sauce
1 Tbs lime juice
2 Tbs garlic powder
hot pepper powder to taste (opional)
salt pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 425F. Mix together everything but the bird and coat the chicken with the mixture. Place the bird in an oven safe dish that is at least 2 inches deep. Cook at 425 for 30 min. Turn the oven down to 350 and cook for another 2 to 3 hours. The chicken is done when the leg pulls easily away from the body.

Denise~ if you add potatoes, carrots, and onions and stir in the juices every 30 minyou will have some great veggies.

Yummy!! I'm gonna add that to my next week menu!

Ginny’s Swedish Apple Pie

Peel and slice about 4 Granny Smith apples
Butter pie plate and heat oven to 350 (melt stick of butter after using on pie plate)
Layer apples in bottom of pie plate
Sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar
In mixing bowl, beat one egg, one cup of sugar, one cup of flour, one stick of melted butter and one T-spoon of vanilla
Spread mixture evenly over apples and bake til golden brown

You can add walnuts if you like but I like it better without
