Requested Recipes

Okay, I know this is random.  Especially since I haven’t posted anything since….February? It seems like all my friends decided to get pregnant this year, so I have been making a lot of extra dinners to help out.  Here are a couple of recipes that my friends wanted.  I figured this was the most central location for them.  Let me know if you have any questions!

Crock Pot Chicken and Noodles

4 boneless chicken breasts
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1/2 – 1 cup carrots, chopped
1/2 soup can milk
1 Tbsp parsley
8 cups noodles, cooked

Combine chicken, soup, onion, celery, carrots, milk, and parsley in a greased crock pot cook on high for 4-5 hours (until the chicken is done).  Stir occasionally to help with burning on the edges.  Shred/cut up chicken in the sauce and serve over hot cooked noodles or brown rice.  I cook the noodles a little al dente and mix them right in the crock pot at the end.  They soften with the sauce. 

* I cut this recipe in 1/2 for my family of 4 and usually only use 1 chicken breast and we still have plenty of leftovers. 

“Pizza” Breaksticks

2 1/4 cups water
1 1/2 Tbsp yeast
4 1/2 Tbsp sugar
2 1/4 tsp salt
5 1/2 to 6 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cube margarine
Salad Supreme seasoning

Mix and knead ingredients.  Grease a large cookie sheet and roll the dough into the pan with a rolling pin.  Melt the margarine and pour over the dough in the pan to coat the top. Cut the dough with a pizza cutter into apprx.  13 short cuts by 1 long cut in the pan.  (however big you want the breadsticks)  Sprinkle the top with the Salad Supreme seasoning.  Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise for about 1/2 hour.  Remove the plastic wrap and then bake at 400 for 10-15 minutes.  (My oven is closer to 10 minutes)

* I cut this recipe in 1/2 for my family and use one of the smaller sized cookie sheets. If it is cut in 1/2 you can use a bread maker on the dough cycle for the mixing and kneading, just don’t let it rise in the machine. 
*  I have also seen suggestions that instead of Salad Supreme using Italian spices, garlic powder, onion powder, parmesan cheese, etc… but I have never done that.
