Campbell's Kitchen Creamy Chicken Enchiladas

Reviewed: Oct. 17, 2009

I had these at a friend's house and they were sooo good. They weren't very spicy, so if you like spice, use hot picante sauce. She said she used 4 chicken breasts, which is more chicken that it calls for, and she used extra cheese. I never would've thought something this easy would be so good. Try them! And don't complicate it by adding a bunch of other spices. The fact that it's easy is part of why I liked it.

Chicken Fiesta Salad

Reviewed: Sep. 23, 2009

WOW. Super easy, healthy and yummy! What else could a girl ask for?? This is very good with or without the chicken! When I make it with chicken, I marinate it instead of rubbing it with the fajita seasoning, it's just easier to me. I also drizzle spicy ranch dressing on top. This has become one of our favorite recipes. No need to add cheese, it's healthier without it and very, very good. Thank you so much for submitting it!!

Quick and Easy Chicken Spaghetti

Reviewed: Sep. 23, 2009

I've made a variation of this for years and we love it. I think it's better with cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken. I also saute a small onion and a bell pepper in butter to add to it. If you find this too spicy, use mild Rotel or use 1/2 the can.

Party Chicken I

Reviewed: Feb. 26, 2009

My whole family loves this. I make it just a little bit differently and think the combination of the soups that I use make it better than just cream of chicken. I use 1 can cream of chicken & mushroom soup (both flavors combined into one can), 1 can cream of celery, and 1 cup sour cream for the sauce. All the rest of the ingredients are the same but I don't shred the dried beef. I put one slice of dried beef on each side of the chicken breast and wrap the bacon around, ends down. Cooking it longer and slower is the key to the chicken getting so tender. I've never overcooked it and have left it on 275 as long as 3 1/2 hours and it's been great every time. I also recommend at least partially cooking the bacon or removing it before serving because it is soggy. But the bacon flavor that it gives the chicken and the sauce is really yummy. Also, this sauce is SO GOOD that we usually have mashed potatoes with it and use the sauce for gravy. You can cut down on a little of the sodium by buying lower sodium soups, but the fat free versions don't seem to work as well (including the sour cream). I don't make it often because it's fattening, but my family loves it when I do.

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2009

I thought this was great. I didn't use as many biscuits because other reviewers warned about them sticking together. I used one can of Grands and broke them off in small pieces (about 8-10 pcs per biscuit). I also used a couple of cups of chicken broth and added some poultry seasoning and garlic powder. I've never tried to make chicken & dumplings before but I will make this recipe again, with my alterations. It's very easy to prepare on extra busy days when I know I will not want to spend much time in the kitchen. Crock pots are great! I'm always looking for good meals to make in mine. Thanks for the recipe!

Chicken Noodle Casserole I

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2008

I usually sprinkle a little garlic powder into it and use a large package of cream cheese instead of sour cream. We also use Club crackers instead of Ritz. My kids love this!

No Bake Cookies III

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2008

I've been making these for years but I think there are two keys to making these. One is to make sure the mixture is at a FULL BOIL for 1 full minute (I do not like the consistency when I boil them longer). And the other thing is not to make them on rainy days because it's been my experience that they don't set up right if there's too much humidity in the air. My family loves these cookies, and it's nice for me that they are so easy and quick to make.

Apple Pie by Grandma Ople

Reviewed: Sep. 1, 2008

OH MY GOODNESS!!! This is the BEST apple pie I've ever eaten, much less baked myself. I didn't make the lattice crust but made slits in the crust and poured the sauce on top. There's something about the crunchy sweet crust that is really special. I did add a teaspoon or so of cinnamon to the mixture, and we definitely liked the tart apples in it. My family devoured it! Thanks so much for this recipe! It will be the only one I use from now on.

Sauteed Apples

Reviewed: Sep. 1, 2008

These are great! To vary this a little but use the same ingredients with a package of crescent rolls... put the cut up apples into crescent rolls, bake about 1/2 the time on the package, then take them out and pour the sauce from this recipe on top and finish baking. Scrumptious!!

Chicken Crunch

Reviewed: Aug. 28, 2008

This has been one of my kids' favorites for a long time, but I make it just a little differently. I melt a large package of cream cheese in the microwave and mix it with a can of cream of chicken soup. I shred the chicken and put it in the dish first, then I put the cream cheese/soup mixture on top. Then I crunch up Club crackers and drizzle melted butter on top. You can make this lower fat by using non-fat or lowfat cream cheese & soup, and reduced fat crackers. It still tastes really good. I've not found a way around using the butter and still get the same flavor (I love the taste of butter), but this at least helps with the fat content. I also sprinkle a little garlic powder into it. My kids, and all of their friends who have had it, love it!! Very kid-friendly dish!

Creamed Salmon on Toast

Reviewed: Aug. 13, 2008

This was good, reminded me of my grandmother who made this a lot when I was growing up. I left out the peas (served them separately), added a little garlic powder to the salmon mixture, then I let it sit in the fridge a little while to thicken up. It still is very soft but I coated large spoonfuls in flour and then fried them. I probably won't make it often, but it brought back good memories for me.

Bev's Chocolate Pie

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2008

This is awesome. My first homemade chocolate pie and it was delicious and set perfectly. I took advice from other reviewers and cooked the cocoa, sugar, evap milk mixture for prob 10-15 minutes just before boiling, and then let it cool quite a bit before adding the eggs. The mixture barely fit into a regular pie shell. It baked 40 minutes and was perfect! Thanks for the recipe!

BBQ Pork for Sandwiches

Reviewed: Mar. 14, 2008

This is SO EASY! You can use roast instead of ribs. Put the roast and broth in the crock pot for about 6-8 hours. Then take the meat out and shred it with a fork. Add your favorite bottled sauce and put it in the oven for about 30 minutes. This is perfect if you know you're going to have a busy day and won't want to cook dinner later. Just buy some baked beans and potato salad or chips and you have an easy dinner!

Christmas Breakfast Sausage Casserole

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2008

We all love this. I use flavored croutons and extra cheese. I like to make this when we have company or for Christmas morning. I put it together the night before, refrigerate overnight, and put it in the oven the next morning as soon as I get up because it cooks a long time. I made this one Christmas and just put it in the oven when I got up, and by the time we were finished opening presents, it was done and I didn't miss anything that was going on. With company I get up early, put it in the oven, get ready while it's cooking and still have time to visit.

This may be my favorite appetizer. They are completely addictive!! I made these for the Super Bowl, and I could eat one batch all by myself. They're great without any alterations. Thanks!

Chicken Pot Pie IX

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2008

I don't think it's possible to mess this up. My 9 year old daughter was helping me and somehow we did everything a little differently :-) , but it still turned out great. We cooked the onion in butter and cubed the chicken and cooked it with the onion. We added garlic powder and poultry seasoning also. We used chicken broth to make the sauce and added extra poultry seasoning and garlic powder, and then we just used a can of mixed vegetables (which I usually don't use but wanted to make it easier). The Pillsbury roll out dough worked great, and I forgot to brush the bottom one with an egg white as some suggested, but it wasn't soggy. I did put a pan on the bottom rack in case of overflow during bake time, but it wasn't needed. The pie looked amazing too. Great cold weather comfort food! Thanks for the recipe!
