Angel Chicken

3-4 chicken breasts
1/4 c butter
1 pkg Good Seasons Italian Dressing mix
1 can golden mushroom soup
1 c white grape juice
4- 8 oz cream cheese with chives

Place uncooked chicken breasts in crock pot. In saucepan, melt butter. Add seasoning mix and blend, followed by soup, juice and cream cheese. Pour over chicken. Cover and cook on LOW about 3 hours. Shred chicken and mix thoroughly. Serve over noodles or rice.


Note: I used 1 lb chicken tenders instead of chicken breasts (because that's what I had on hand), and then halved the rest of the recipe. Delicious!

Baked Potato Soup

This recipe is one that a friend created, so there isn't exact measurements, cause she just showed me how to make it.

Fry chopped bacon (or just buy pre-cooked bacon from the Costcos like me :))
Saute onions, carrots and celery in about a tablespoon of butter until carrots are oh so tender.
Add chicken or vegetable broth (2-3 cans) and chopped potatoes.
Cook until potatoes are tender and add most of a quart of half and half. Use the remaining half and half to make a thickener with some flour or cornstarch. Add that to the soup to thicken her right on up. Add the bacon here.
I put shredded cheese and sour cream on top but you can put anything that tastes good on baked potatoes in it!
