I used this for the basis to use up some leftover store-bought rotisserie chicken. I stripped the chicken meat and diced it up and set aside. I used the bones/skin from the chicken, added 3.5 cups water, some salt/pepper/1 bay leaf and simmered for ~40 mins to make broth, then strained and discarded the bones/skin. The next day I made the tortilla soup but omitted the oil and tortillas, and just threw all the rest of the ingredients into a pot with the broth for about 40 minutes. I also added 1/4 tsp dried oregano. Then ladled the soup on top of tortilla chips, with a squeeze of fresh lime (a must!). It was delicious!

Quick and Easy Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Casserole

Reviewed: Apr. 18, 2011

Delicious and devoured by the guests! I also combined the chicken with sourcream, and added a pkg of taco seasoning, 2 small seeded diced jalapeno, and 1 tsp cumin. Otherwise it was perfect, and I saved maybe 1/2 cup sauce just to avoid soupiness some mentioned but I think it would have been fine to use the whole can. Garnished with cilantro & chopped green onions. This is a keeper!

BBQ Teriyaki Pork Kabobs

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2011

GREAT flavor and easy! Used beef sirloin instead of pork and the crushed red pepper was perfect (I was a little worried at 1/2 tsp). I did up the brown sugar to 3TBSP as some readers recommended, crushed the garlic and used fresh ginger, and it made a lot of sauce, I would cut sauce in half next time.

Chicken Stir-Fry

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2011

Really good - knowing that 6 minutes with constant stirring on high heat will allow your veggies to be crisp-tender is a good thing to know. I actually had already cooked chicken, so I just added 1 Tablespoon cornstarch to the 1Cup chicken broth after tossing the chicken into the stir-fried veggies and it worked perfectly. Used fresh garlic and ginger too.

Cajun Baked Catfish

Reviewed: Jul. 31, 2010

Easy and delicious! I had tilapia because it was on sale. Added 1/2 t chili powder. Served with home-made mango&peach salsa tucked in a corn tortilla. The trick on the corn tortilla is to sear them individually until slightly puffy in a dry skillet on very high heat (flip once) and keep warm under clean towel. Will definitely make again for guests next time!

Spaghetti Salad III

Reviewed: Aug. 29, 2006

I had 1 Cup leftover spaghetti so I simply cut it up, popped it in microwave with a little added water to plump it up. Then added the ingredients adjusted for 1 Cup of spaghette and also added a sprinkle of onion power/garlic powder, some chopped fresh parsley, and used 2-3TBSP grated parmesan (instead of shredded cheddar). This is a keeper for any leftover pasta!

Asian Turkey Barbecue on Sesame Scallion Toasts

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2002

Quick-healthy-delicious-and creative! We had "on toasts", froze the leftover barbecue and gave it to a friend who had it "on rice". He called the next day demanding the recipe!
