The 2 cans of diced tomato are in there already! I don't do sauce bc I don't want to make the potatoes too soggy - which is why I only put the tomato around the perimeter at first. But I would think after the 30 min stir a nice layer of mozzarella would be great!

Tonight I made a Mexican-inspire (lol) version of Disneyland's Cafe Orleans pomme frittes. I cut several potatoes into "steak fry" shape and sprayed them with Pam. I then combined 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese with salt, pepper, parsley, and paprika in a baggie. I tossed the potatoes in the mixture and baked for 20-25 minutes at 400. Delicious!

Crock Pot Corned Beef with Veggies a la Nikki

3 1/2-4 lb. Corned Beef Brisket
3-4 Large Potatoes
1 Cabbage
1 Cup Carrots
1 Medium Onion
Beef Stock
Water

Cut potatoes, carrots, and onions. Layer them on the bottom of the Crock Pot. Rinse brisket and place on top of veggies. Add equal parts of beef stock and water so that it just covers the meat. Cook on LOW for eight hours. Remove veggies and brisket. Cover with foil to keep warm. Add cabbage (cut into quarters or smaller) and cook on HIGH for 30 minutes. Serve with Gulden's mustard.


Mmmmm! Yummy!

Snow day today, so comfort food just sounded good! So i'm making chicken and dumplings in the slow cooker. It's a new recipe for me, so I hope it turns out good

4 chicken breasts
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 small diced onion
2 tablespoons butter
1 can chicken broth
1 can biscuits

Cube the chicken breasts, season as desired, then place in slow cooker. Dice onion, mix with chicken. Add butter, 2 cans of cream of chicken soup and 1 can of broth. Mix together. Cook on low for 8 hours. About an hour before it's done, roll out bicuits and cut into strips, mix in with the other ingredients.
We did double up the recipe as it didn't seem like it would make much.

I just saw a similar recipe the other day online. Let us know how it comes out! I'd love some chicken and dumplings!!!

[momto2inKC]

The chicken and dumplings turned out really good! Next time, however, I will use less broth and put the biscuits in for the last 2 hours. It was a tad soupy and some the biscuit pieces were a bit doughy. But the flavor was excellent!
We ended up making fresh snow ice cream for dessert

We had spaghetti and salad; not exciting.

BUT I am excited about the pumpkin spice muffins I baked. Add one can of pumpkin to a spice cake box mix, and follow the baking instructions on the box for muffins and VOILA!!! That's about as easy as it gets!!

And you could probably add cream cheese frosting to the top of them to be really bad, but I've resisted!

Tonight:

Black and pinto bean chili soup with leftover bbq (either beef, burger, or hot dog)

Chili soup--- tonight's version:
Fresh garlic chopped into a little olive oil to coat pot. Added in chili seasoning packet. Add a few other spices. 1 ...14.5oz can of diced tomatoes, 1 can of tomato soup, half can chicken broth, 1 can black beans,and 1 can fat free pinto beans.

When we want to eat...haberno ajo sauce (garlic)from our NYE Cozumel stop, low fat cheese, and maybe tortillas, and choice of meat.

Dessert---Edy's light ice cream..I think it is cookie dough.

Tonight we're having a Southeast Asian inspired beef dish. Thin slices of beef marinated for a few hours in a lemongrass, garlic, shallot, olive oil, fish sauce and pepper puree. Then fry or grill quickly about a minute each side and some wild rice/brown rice mixture to go with. Yum and lowfat!!

John,

There is actually a disboards thread for recipes. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1575103, but a more recent index to this thread is at http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1777635.

The baked onion soup (Soupe a L'Oignon Gratinee) is on page 105.

Make sure to make enough for the rest of us.

LOVE this thread! I printed lots of great receipes from this thread, and one I really wanted for Super Bowl the Buffalo Chicken Dip that my husband loves and a friend wouldn't give up the receipe, LOL! She said she knows we will come visit for the dip aka friend security! So now I have it, yeaheee!

I made a quick ** Kale, Turkey Sausage & Potatoe Soup ** last night:

Used what I had you can adjust to how much you want to make!
I did:
2 Large boxes Chicken broth, 8-10 medium potatoes 1/2 cooked skin on in microwave, bunch of kale cut to bite size pieces, 6 turkey sausage links (squeezed out of casing I used spicy or use mild). Chopped fresh garlic

Brown sausage and chopped garlic in heavy bottom stock pot chopping up into bite size pieces as it cooks once lightly browned dump in chicken broth and potatoes simmer low 10 minutes, dump in kale cook another 10 and its done - very healthy and warming!

Since the weather is rough in NC, I decided to make some white chicken chili. I plan to cook it in the crockpot and I hope it turns out to be tasty (first time making this recipe). I got this recipe from the Campbell's Kitchen website www.campbellskitchen.com

Southwest White Chicken Chili
1 tbl olive oil
4 skinless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
3-4 ts of chili powder (adjust to your taste. I don't like spicy so I only use 3 ts)
2 ts cumin
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 can cream of chicken soup, fat free ( I am trying to eat healthier)
3/4 cup water
1 1/2 cup frozen corn
2 cans white kidney beans, rinsed and drained
Cheddar cheese (fat-free) for topping
Sour Cream (optional)

Cook chicken with spices in vegetable oil until chicken is cooked through. Add chicken to crackpot with the rest of the ingredients, except for cheese and sour cream. Cook for 2-3 hours on high or 4-6 hours on low. Serve and top with cheese and sour cream.

Typing this recipe has made me hungry
