Chicken Stroganoff

I love crockpot recipes! This one is super easy and uses ingredients that I always have on hand.

Chicken Stroganoff
I got this recipe from my friend, JoDee

1 or more chicken breasts (I usually just use 1 that's enough for my family. I buy the chicken breasts w/bones & skin -- it's tender and cheaper than boneless skinless)
2 Tbsp flour
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp pepper
1 T. onion soup mix (here's the link to make your own)
1/2 cup water
10 oz can cream of mushroom soup
9 oz jar sliced mushrooms, drained (optional)
1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley (optional)
1/2 cup sour cream
(I usually throw in 1/4 c. butternut squash puree from my freezer --completely optional)

Remove skin from chicken. Combine flour, garlic powder, pepper, and paprika in slow cooker. Place chicken in flour mixture and toss until meat is well coated. Add mushroom soup, water, butternut squash puree and soup mix. Stir until well blended. Cover. Cook on high for 3-3 1/2 hours or low 6-7. through.

Before serving, shred chicken and into. Mix in sour cream, parsley and mushrooms. Cover and cook on high 10-15 minutes or until heated through. Serve over egg noodles, pasta or rice.

One Hour Rolls

These rolls are amazing!  I've been making these rolls since 2001 when I was a newlywed and my sister-in-law shared the recipe with me.  The rolls are light, fluffy, easy to make and they only take one hour!  And delicious too!   I've made these rolls more times than I can count, so I've perfected the art of making them.  Here are some step-by-step instructions with pictures for you. Here's what you'll need.  I buy pretty much all of the ingredients in this recipe at Sam's club, thus the huge containers.  You need warm water, yeast, oil, sugar, salt, egg and flour. In the mixer bowl, add warm water (not hot), oil, sugar and yeast.  Mix together. After ten or fifteen minutes the yeast mixture should be puffed up like this.  Time to add the salt and beaten egg. Then mix in the flour.  (I've used a mixture of half wheat and half white flour successfully.) Keep adding flour until the dough is manageable.  It will be a little sticky, b

Don't like your house to smell like food? I've got a kitchen tip for that!

I have a smallish, one story house and if I cook food that is kind of smelly, like onions, the smell tends to linger in every room.  This is a pet peeve of mine and (also my husband's).  Over the years I've found a few ways to cook smelly food without smelling up the kitchen. Use your garage!   I use my garage quite often to cook things in.  I open the window and it airs out, especially when you open the garage door.  I'm sure my neighbors wonder what I'm cooking. I've used two different kitchen appliances in the garage:  my crockpot and my food dehydrator. Crockpot - I did this very thing today since I'm simmering chicken, onions, carrots and celery to make chicken noodle soup tonight.  I don't want my house to smell like onions all day, so I plugged it in on my husband's workbench.   Food dehydrator - when I make jerky, I plug the food dehydrator in in the garage.  I don't really want my house to smell like meat for hours

The Best French Bread I've Ever Made

This is the best french bread I've ever made.  I got this recipe from my friend, Nikki, who gave us some of this bread as a thank you for my hubby helping them move a piano.  I remember it being delicious and we gobbled it up fast.  I was intimidated for some reason by the recipe and waited a few years before I made it. We needed some bread for to make some turkey, provolone, avocado sandwiches, so I made some of this bread and it was perfect!  We sliced one loaf like they do at Subway.  Then later I made normal shaped sandwiches with the rest of the bread.  Delicious... light and fluffy and yummy! Update 2/22/12: This is still my favorite bread after making it for a year! It turns out perfect every time and it's gone in a flash! printable recipe French Bread recipe from my friend, Nikki Yield: 2 loaves   Ingredients 2 c. warm water 1 pkg (or 1 heaping Tbsp.) yeast 1/4 c. granulated sugar 1 T. olive oil
