This is a recipe I now use instead of my old method of making pot pie from scratch (which took almost 5 hours!). Enjoy!

Inside-Out Chicken Pot Pie
1 lb. chicken breasts, cubed
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/4-1/2 C. milk
8 oz. frozen peas & carrots
1 can Pillsbury Grands! biscuits

Spray a 10" skillet with cooking spray and cook chicken until white. Add soup, milk, and veggies. Cover and simmer on low-med. for 10-15 minutes. While that is cooking, bake biscuits according to package directions.

Serve chicken mixture over opened biscuits.

Here's a recipe I made up the other night and it was a HUGE hit! I had few ingredients in the house but wanted something other than stupid burgers...again!

So I created something for which I don't really have a name, but it was delicious, if I do say so myself!

I don't usually measure with instruments. I use my hands as measuring cups and spoons, so I'm estimating the amounts.

I made glazed carrots alongside this recipe (in the steamer) and while I imagined that combo being strange, it was strangely good!

Creamy Beefy Noodle...Stuff
1 lb. ground beef
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1/2 C. (or so) milk
1 1/2 Tbsp. parsely (small palm size)
3/4 C. grated parmesan cheese (3-4 good handfuls)
12 oz. egg noodles (I used the thick, old-fashioned kind...not "No Yolks" like I usually do)

While egg noodles are cooking, brown ground beef and drain. Mix in the rest of the ingredients and heat through. Drain the noodles and stir into beef mixture.

Glazed Carrots
8-10 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1 1/2"-2" strips OR small bag of peeled baby carrots
2-3 Tbsp. butter or margarine
2-3 Tbsp. light brown sugar
1 pack of dry ranch dressing mix

Cook the carrots however you like (I steamed mine while the other stuff was cooking, but they can be boiled if you'd prefer.) In a microwave-safe bowl with a lid (I used a large Tupperware bowl), melt butter. Add brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Stir in ranch dressing mix and add carrots. With the lid tightly secured, shake the bowl until all carrots are well coated.

These are great for pot-lucks, family dinners, or parties. I put it on in the morning and it's ready to go by the time we need it. It's SO easy and yummy!

Cheesy Potatoes
2 (16 oz) bags of hash browns (the square kind, not shredded)
2 blocks of cream cheese
2 Cans cream of mushroom soup
2 (16 oz.) bags of shredded cheddar cheese

Mix all ingredients in the crock pot on cook on Low for 6-8 hours or on High for 4-5 hours.

**Around Christmas time, I add diced red & green peppers to create a little extra color!

Here's a recipe my family LOVES. It can be spicy so you just have to adjust to taste.

CAJUN CHICKEN
1 whole frying chicken cut into pieces
Flour for dredging
1 can mushroon soup
1 can tomato soup
1&1/2 cans water
1 large onion diced fine
1 green pepper diced
1 red pepper diced
2 Jalepeno (sp) peppers diced fine. (seeds included)
1 hot red pepper diced fine ( the long skinny type)
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
dash or worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Dredge chicken in flour and brown in a bit of oil. While the chicken is browning, dice up the veggies and add to remaining ingredients in a large oven proof casserole or pot with a lid(needs to be big enough for the chicken and the sauce).Once the chicken is browned add it to the sauce making sure it is covered well. Put on the lid and pop in a pre heated 375* oven for 1 hr or until chicken is fully cooked. Serve over rice. Enjoy.
