Chicken soup:
boil any chicken in large pot with water chopped onion and celery cook till chicken falls off bone. add salt pepper to taste
remove chicken from water and skim fat
Add 1 bag frozen mixed veggies and 1 bag egg noddles cook till done add deboned cut up chicken serve
My group loves it and it takes half the time that mom did.
No Bake cheese pie:
1 already made grahm crust
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 and 1/2 pkgs softened crean cheese (softening is nessary for texture)
1/4c lemon juice
1t vanilla
mix till smooth pour in crust set in fridge till firm top as desired
I use strawberry pie filling
I make this every thanksgiving and xmas.
1 box elbow macaroni (I use Muellers)
1 Brick low fat mild yellow cheddar (or the non low-fat kind vbg)
1 brick white sharp cheese (low-fat or regular)
1 brick white or yellow extra sharp cheese (I usually can't get this in low-fat)
It does taste better if at least one of the cheeses is regular
Grate the cheese
(sometimes this is too much depending on what size I can get so I grate only 1/2 of each until I know)
Cook the macaroni al dente
spray glass or metal rectangular pan with spray olive oil or PAM
put a layer of macaroni on bottom of pan (I sprinkle a little salt on the macs)
sprinkle on a layer of cheese (a combo of all 3 cheeses)
keep layering until pan is full--ending with lots of cheese
Pour skim milk into pan until it slightly covers the last layer of macaroni
Put into an oven at 375 degrees and bake until cheese is golden brown (sometimes 425 degrees is better--depends on the oven:))
Once it is done let it set for about 5 minutes to settle in.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM good!!!!!!!

Here is a quickie
Cut up a chunk of 95% fat free ham into cubes
Spray no stick pan with olive oil or PAM
Fry ham until slightly browned
Add fresh or frozen yellow beans
Add skim milk to cover
Cook slowly until beans are done
Thicken with whatever (I use Wondra flour)
Serv over cooked rice (I use brown rice--Minute instant)
I have many more but most take a long time

1 to 1 - 1/2 pounds chicken pieces
1 cup packed Brown Sugar
2/3 cup Vinegar
1/4 cup Lemon-lime Soda
2-3 teaspoons minced Garlic
2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Black pepper
(veggies - optional - 4 or 5 thin sliced carrots, green and red peppers cut into 1 inch pieces, about 1/3 onion sliced)
Place chicken in slow cooker (if adding veggies, put those in first)
Mix brown sugar, vinegar, soda, garlic, soy sauce and pepper and pour over chicken.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours....(unless you have a new large crockpot - mine took 3 hours).
About halfway thru, break up the chicken pieces.
Serve over white rice or noodles.
This is wonderful - -spicy but not too sweet.

Actually, you ought to try this - - it is SURprising how yummy it tastes. I thought 1 cup of brown sugar would make this sick-sweet but not in the least....this is one of my favorites now and SO easy.

I'm glad they turned out good for you!! I loved the ones I made.
