Creamy PHILADELPHIA Penne Pasta with Chicken
This was a good dish and my husband liked it, however I'm not sure I'll put the green olives in again next time. They were a bit overpowering I thought. I left out the red pepper b/c I didn't have any and added fresh sliced baby portabellas. I think almost any vegetable would be good added to this dish if you're like me and like veggies in your pastas. I also left out the rosemary simply b/c I forgot to add it. Maybe that's why it seemed a little bland and the olives didn't seem like a good fit. I marinated the chicken in Italian dressing before cooking too; personal preference.

Slow Cooker Swiss Steak
This was great! It didn't taste anything like the swiss steak I'm used to, but it was still really good and worth making. My husband requested I make it again in the future. I added a green pepper and mushrooms because I had them on hand. I also only put in 1 can of diced tomatoes and then cut up two Roma tomatoes (again b/c that's what I had on hand). I didn't brown the meat ahead of time simply b/c I didn't have time and it was straight out of the freezer. I just threw everything in the slow cooker and turned it on high for 4 1/2 hours. I added 2 tbs of flour the last half hour to thicken it. The brown sugar adds just the right amount of sweetness to this dish. Very good!

Grandmas Chicken Chardon
The breading on the chicken was great. However, the mushrooms shriveled up to nothing. I made it again and left out the mushrooms b\c I didn't have any and it was still great. The 4 stars is b\c the mushrooms cooked too long. I would recommend adding extra liquid so they don't shrivel up or adding them halfway into the cooking process.
