Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup
This soup is quick and easy. It's my go to when I am in a hurry.
Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup
2 cups sliced carrots
2 cups diced celery
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cans (14 oz) chicken broth
3 tsp chicken bouillon or chicken soup base
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup milk (or cream or half and half - whatever you have on hand)
2 cups cooked, diced chicken
about 4 cups cooked egg noodles
salt and pepper, to taste
Heat chicken broth and bouillon together. Add carrots, celery and onions and simmer until vegetables are tender. Add cream of chicken soup and milk. Then add cooked chicken and noodles. Add salt and pepper, and taste to correct seasonings.
I made this soup tonight and used 2 cans of chicken from Costco. It really is fast to make if you already have some leftover chicken or use the canned.

Pepperocini Roast Beef
Here is a really easy crock pot meal. My children love it, especially my sons.
Pepperocini Roast Beef
1 beef roast, 3 to 4 pounds (I like to use chuck roasts. I buy a two pack at Costco or Sam's)
1 jar (16 oz) pepperocini
deli rolls
provolone cheese
Place roast in crock pot. Pour entire jar of pepperocini over roast. Cook on low 8-10 hours. Take roast out of crock pot and shred. I usually drain all the liquid so my roll is not soggy. If you like spicy things, you can put some of the pepperocini on the roll with your meat. I spread my rolls with garlic butter and toast them with the cheese before putting the meat on. That's it!! The liquid in the pepperocini jar tenderizes the meat. I don't like spicy food and this is not too spicy for me.

Alfredo Sauce
I'm so excited!! This is the first time I have ever blogged in my life! So, please be patient with me as I'm not sure what I am doing. I got this amazing recipe from my friend, Janice. Everything she makes is delicious!! She is definitely my go to person when I need a recipe or an idea for a recipe. This sauce is so good and very easy to make. It is wonderful over pasta or over meatballs for an appetizer.
ALFREDO SAUCE
1 cube butter (please use the real stuff)
2 cups milk
2 8 oz packages cream cheese
2 tsp basil - or to taste (basil has such a strong taste, that I had a little at first)
2 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano
2 tsp garlic powder (if you use garlic salt, do not add the salt)
2 tsp sugar (I know, I know - but trust me on this)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup vinegar or apple juice - vinegar makes it a little more tangy
Combine all ingredients together and heat to almost a boil - it's never a good idea to boil milk. Make sure to stir until all the cream cheese has melted. If you feel the sauce is too thick, add a little more milk.
I have served this over pasta with grilled chicken added on top and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Yummy!

Beef Enchiladas
Another delicious and easy recipe that I took from a friend. What I love about this recipe is you can make it spicier or milder depending on the sauce you get (fire, hot, mild, etc.) and the recipe can be made smaller or larger depending on the number of people you need to serve. This recipe serves about 4 people.
Delicious Meatloaf
I have never been a fan of meatloaf, but I LOVE this meatloaf. It's absolutely delicious. I top with ketcup and leave in oven a few more minutes.
