I am currently a stay at home mom and enjoying every minute of it. I was an elementary school teacher for nine years and decided to take a break to raise my children. Being a mom is just as challenging as my teaching career :)

Easy Recipes

Here are some fast and yummy recipes that I received from a great friend. They look really scrumptious and I love crock pot meals :)

Chicken Chalupas
1 (8 oz) bag Nacho cheese Doritos
4 cooked chicken breasts, cubed into 1/2 inch pieces
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 cup lite sour cream
1 (4 oz) can green chilies, diced
1 cup grated cheddar cheese

Grease 9x13 in. glass baking dish. Line with Doritos chips. Spread chicken on top of chips. Place cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, sour cream, and green chilies in blender (I just mix in a bowl instead of blender, and it tastes great). Blend until creamy smooth. Pour mixture over chicken. Sprinkle cheese on top. Bake in a 350 F oven for 40 minutes. Serves 4 to 6.


Easy Crockpot Beef Stew
1 lb beef stew meat, cut into cubes (Stater Bros. already have it cut) Do not brown, add water or salt, just put in bottom of crockpot
1 can Campbell's French onion soup
1 can Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup
1 can Campbell's Tomato soup
you can use potatoes, carrots, celery, green beans, corn

Put stew meat in bottom of crockpot, add French onion soup and mushroom soup (do not stir) and tomato soup (do not stir). On top of 3 cans of soup, put your potatoes (cut up) and carrots. Still do not stir; as they cook, they will mix with soup and meat. I make corn on stove top so its crunchy. I also make mashed potatoes for leftovers. Cook on low all day (10 hours) or 3 hours on high and remaining hours on low.
