Chicken/Vegetable Casserole

Things you will need:
~ 1 can of green beans or the equivalent of fresh green beans
~ 1 can of corn
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
2 cups of diced, cooked chicken
1 cup of cooked rice
3/4 cup of milk
1 can of french onion rings (you can also use crackers if you do not have french onion rings)
~ 1 cup of cheese (optional)

Combine the beans, corn, cream of mushroom soup, chicken and rice. Put the mixture in a casserole dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Top with onion rings and bake for 10 more minutes. If you love cheese like the Fox family does, add some shredded cheese before placing the onion rings on top.

Creamy Chicken Casserole

This is seriously one of the easiest and most delicious chicken casseroles I have ever made.

Ingredients
~ 4 chicken breasts cooked and cut up
(or whatever is needed for your family)
8 ounces of sour cream (I usually get the low fat or fat free)
1 can of cream of chicken soup
1 package of Ritz crackers
1 stick of butter or margarine (melted)
Poppy seeds

Combine the chicken, sour cream, and cream of chicken soup. Pour into casserole dish. Crush up the crackers and combine with margarine and poppy seeds. Sprinkle over top of the chicken mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

Chicken tacos in the crock pot

I work everyday. I leave my house about 7:00-7:15 and get home about 5:45-6:00. I am not complaining, but it makes crock pot cooking hard. Well, GOOD NEWS, if you work like I do, you can still make this recipe. I usually put it all together the night before or in the morning before I leave for work.

Ingredients:
Chicken (I usually use 3 breasts for 2 of us)
1 jar of salsa
1 taco seasoning packet
taco shells

Optional Ingredients (this is what you want to put on your taco!). Below is what I like
avocado or guacamole
cheese
tomatoes
jalapeno
onion

Place the chicken, salsa and taco seasoning in the crock pot. If you would like to cook on low, cook for about 4-6 hours. I cook it on high for about 2 hours. Once the chicken is cooked, it should shred easily wich a fork. You can use the chicken for quesadillas, enchiladas, burritos, tacos, etc. Use the leftovers for taco soup!

Trader Joe's quick dinner

Hey friends, Abbey here.  I wanted to share this super quick, cheap and easy meal.  It made me want to have it again the next night and the next.  But I refrained because when I do that, my hubby gets mad.  Boo.

Here we go:
~Trader Joe's goodies~
Frozen veggie burgers
Frozen Sweet Potatoes
Frozen organic broccoli
Flat burger buns

I steamed the broccoli, baked the fries according to the package (well, a little longer because we like them crispy) and I cooked the patties on our griddle.  I buttered the buns and thew them on the griddle also.  It was so cheap and somewhat healthy.  Of course we added pickles and mustard and ketchup.  The tomatoes I had went bad, but that was the plan to have them with the burgers.

I really need to start taking pictures for you guys!!

Enjoy.

BBQ Chicken

I don't know the "real" title of this recipe nor where it came from.  My sister told me about it and her  best friend told her.  I have told all my friends and it's so easy.  It sounds really weird, but TRUST ME when I tell you, it's a conversation stopper!

Here you go:
Chicken (however much you need for your family)
1 bottle of BBQ sauce (i have used the trader joe's brand and the sweet baby rays, both are awesome)
1 jar of salsa

Put everything in the crockpot for 4 hours.  Serve over rice.  I also serve a side of broccoli or salad.

Yes, it's that easy and I know it sounds weird, but just do it!!  You can thank me in the morning!
