Stove Top Chicken

This chicken is really really good- and SO easy! If you don't like swiss cheese, I still think you might like this recipe- it's not 'swissy' at all (in fact you hardly taste the cheese- so you could really just omit it if you want)!

2-4 boneless/skinless chicken breasts
4 slices of Swiss Cheese (or 1 cup shredded swiss cheese)
2 cans Cream of Chicken Soup
1 box uncooked stove top
1/2 stick Butter (or margarine) melted
salt and pepper


Salt and Pepper both sides of the chicken and put in a 9x13 dish. Top with Swiss cheese. Pour soup on top of the cheese. Sprinkle stove top over the whole dish and pour the melted butter on top. Cover your pan with tin foil and then bake it in the oven for 50-60 min at 325 degrees.

Breakfast Casserole

This is one of our favorites- my kids eat it really well :)

1 lb breakfast sausage, cooked & drained
6 eggs
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 20 oz bag shredded frozen potatoes
salt and pepper to taste

Whisk eggs and milk together. Mix all ingredients together except for the cheese. Pour in 9x13 pan. Bake at 375* for 35 minutes. Pull out and stir. Put back in the oven for 15 minutes. Pull out and add cheese. Return to oven for another 15 minutes. (You just want the eggs all cooked- and the potatoes soft). I like to add some chopped onion and red pepper, too. But my husband and kids don't eat it when I do! You can also substitute the sausage with bacon or ham or some other breakfast-y meat, if you prefer :) Leftovers can be frozen!

Artichoke Chicken

Sorry there isn't a picture! I would've taken a pic- but I had company over for dinner and I was rushed and didn't have time ;) This recipe is so yummy and is (in my opinion) best served with rice- although it's still good served with pasta or potatoes!

Artichoke Chicken

1 (14 oz) can packed artichoke hearts (chopped
1 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Place chicken in a greased 9x13 pan. Combine 1st 4 ingredients and spread over top of chicken. Bake uncovered at 375 for 30-35 min.

Chilli Dog & Tater Casserole

There is no picture-- but this is way easy and my kids ate it up!! I was feeling a bit lazy. The kids wanted french fries and chili dogs. I didn't have any frozen french fries and I didn't want to make homemade fries :) - but I did have frozen hashbrown potatoes (the little square country style ones). So, I decided to make my own casserole. Aaron and I actually liked it too!

3 tbsp cooking oil
1/2 bag frozen potatoes
dash of salt
2 hot dogs chopped
1 can chili (I used chili with beans)
1 cup cheddar cheese- shredded
optional: mustard, chopped onion, etc...

Heat your oil through. Add potatoes. Fry until they are cooked through (we like them kinda crucnchy). Add a dash of salt. Add hot dogs. Cook until the hot dogs are cooked through. Add chili. Serve. Top with cheese, onion, mustard, etc...

Chicken Divan

This is my favorite chicken divan recipe. It's really quick and easy and my family loves it!


CHICKEN DIVAN

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (I like to cut them up really small)
1 bag frozen broccoli (I use florets and chop it to about the same size as the chicken)
2 cans Cream of Chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp salt
fresh bread crumbs (about 4 slices of bread)
2 tbsp butter- melted


Cook chicken in large skillet. Once it's cooked add soup, sour cream, mayonnaise, curry powder, broccoli and salt. Heat through. Remove from heat and add cheese. Pour into 9x13 pan. Mix bread crumbs and melted butter together and sprinkle on top of casserole. Bake at 425* for 25 minutes.
** This casserole is really yummy served over rice **
