Taste of Tuesday:Crockpot Cream Cheese Chicken Breasts

Tuesday, January 14, 2014



Ingredients: 
4 frozen chicken breasts
8 ounces of cream cheese
1 can of Cream of chicken soup 
1 packet of Italian seasoning 

Directions:
+Spray your crockpot with non-stick spray.
+ Turn it on to high.
+ Add the cream cheese and let it melt for about 30 minutes. (Let me tell you I left it for about 45 and it still was all chunky. I know it looks gross but the end taste is amazing!)
+ Then add in the can of cream of chicken soup and Italian seasoning packet. Stir.
+ Salt and Pepper the chicken breasts and place them in the mixture.
+ Keep it on high for 4-6 hours. It literally will start to just shred and fall apart! 

I placed mine on top of some steamed white rice! That's the best part. Was craving stuffing and corn so that's what I added! It's easy, quick, and tasty! Enjoy!

+2 tablespoons of cinnamon 
+1/4 cup of unsalted butter at room temperature

Glaze: +4 ounces of cream cheese at room temperature
+1 cup of powdered sugar

+1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Directions

+ Preheat oven to 375 fahrenheit

Dough: +Roll out and flatten down on floured surface(or cutting board like me).

Filling: +Mix together brown sugar and cinnamon.
+Spread butter across dough
+ Sprinkle or spread brown sugar and cinnamon mix all over the dough.

+Roll dough up long ways like a log.
+Cut into 1/2 to 3/4 inch wide.
+Bake for 20 minutes and let cool for 10 minutes

Glaze: +Mix all ingredients together.

Taste of Tuesday: Chili for Two

Tuesday, November 19, 2013

We initially learned this recipe from one of Brads teammates in Czech, but we would always have tons of left overs. I switched it up a bit where it would make enough for two with one serving of leftovers for Brads lunch the next day. I love having Chili anytime of year, but especially cold nights. Enjoy!

Ingredients: 
1 pound ground beef/turkey
Enough oil to cover bottom of pot
1 small green pepper
1 small onion
1 can of kidney beans(undrained)
1 can(or in our case a box) of diced tomatoes(undrained)
1 tbsp of chili powder
1/2 tbsp of garlic powder

Directions:
+Dice the green pepper and onion into small pieces.
+Cover bottom of pot with oil.
+Brown the green pepper and onion in the pot. (about 5 minutes)
+Season ground beef with the garlic powder.
+Add in the ground beef to the pot.
+Brown ground beef completely.
+Add in the kidney beans and tomatoes with all of the juices. Mix well.
+Add in the chili powder. Mix well.
+Bring to a boil.
+Then bring to a low simmer for about an hour or hour in a half depending on how thick you like it.

*We serve ours with white rice on the bottom then chili on top. Also, we use tortilla chips to crush or dip in it.
