I stink at posting.  I admit it.  I have tried so many different things and said, "This is going on the blog!".....and obviously notsomuch.  So, here are a couple of the things I have tried recently and loved!


1) Crock pot Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti
1lb Velveeta (I used the Queso Blanco...delicious!)
12 1/2 oz canned chicken drained and flaked (we like lots of chicken...so I used two cans)
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 can Rotel
1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
14 1/2 oz cooked spaghetti (roughly one package)


Combine all your ingredients in your crock pot (minus the pasta).  The original instructions did not say to turn it on until later, but I went ahead and turned it on low. Cook your pasta and drain it, then add it to the crock pot.  Stir it well.  Put the lid on and cook on low for 2-3 hours.  That's it!  It was absolutely amazing and it made A LOT.  It freezes well, makes a great pot luck dish, and is very affordable per serving!


2) Yummy Potato Soup (I cannot take credit for this entirely...I stole it from a friend's page...Thanks Barbara!) :)
1/2 (30 oz) bag of frozen hash-brown potatoes (I used the whole bag and I used the kind with onions and peppers already in it)
1 box Au Gratin potatoes with cheese packet
32 oz of Chicken Broth (one box)
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1/2 cup chopped onion or substitute onion powder (don't add this if you use the hash-browns with onions)
1/3 tsp black pepper
1/2 package cream cheese (softened)


Combine all ingredients in crock pot (except for cream cheese).  Cover and cook on low for 5 hours.  With 30 minutes left to cook, add the cream cheese.  Stir occasionally (until combined).  Enjoy!  It makes a wonderfully thick and creamy soup!  I am sure you could add more broth if you preferred it to be "thinner," but I like my potato soup thicker.


Happy crock pot cooking!!!
