So, in beginning this blog, let me state that I am in no way an amazing cook. I am learning, and it is by learning that I can become like both of the mothers in my life. I will place each recipe I have completed here, along with my own notes and changes. Should anyone try these recipes, I encourage you to change them in any way that you see fit. I will accept any criticism, whether it be negative or positive.
I thought I would start with one of the recipes I have completed thus far:
#1: Chicken Noodle Casserole: Mama K taught me to make something similar to this, minus the cheese, Ritz crackers, and onions.
Ingredients:
1/2 Cup Chopped Onion
3 Tablespoons of Butter or Margarine
1 Large Can Cream of Chicken Soup
2 Cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 Cup Milk
3 1/2 Cups Chicken
2 1/2 Cups Egg Noodles
1/4 Cup Ritz Cracker Crumbs
Directions:
1. In a large skillet over med-high heat, cook chicken, set aside.
2. Cook noodles, set aside.
3. In a large skillet over med-high heat, saute onions in butter until onions are tender.
4. Add soup and 1 1/2 cups cheese, gradually stir in milk.
5. Cook until cheese melts, stir in chicken and noodles.
6. Transfer mixture to a greased 2 1/2 quart casserole, sprinkle with cracker crumbs.
7. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or until heated thoroughly.
8. Top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and bake 5 minutes.
Results: Successful! Aaron, AJ, and Mama K loved it! :) All smiles. Hope you enjoy!
I will post more recipes tomorrow! Have a good night!
