My friend Jilonne shared this easy recipe with me. The end result isn’t beautiful, but the chicken is moist and tastes good! It is nice to find chicken a recipe my beef-loving cowboy husband will eat.

 

Slow Cooker Sour Cream & Onion Chicken

4 Chicken Breasts (I used a pound of chicken breast tenderloins)

1 can Cream of Chicken Soup ( I like to use this healthier version.)

1/2 C. Sour Cream

1 and 1/2 C. Water

1 package Dry Onion Soup Mix

 

Place Chicken in the bottom of the slow cooker. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over chicken. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-6 hours.

Serve over egg noodles.

Slow Cooker Lasagna

My mom shared this recipe with me about a year ago and it has become one of my family’s favorites! It is much easier to make than traditional lasagna and can be ready in as little as 4 hours of cooking time.

 

Slow Cooker Lasagna

1 lb Ground Beef, Browned

4-5 Cups Spaghetti Sauce (I’ve used Newman’s Own & Prego Traditional – homemade would be great too!)

24-oz. Container of Cottage Cheese

1 egg

8-10 Lasagna Noodles, Uncooked

2-3 Cups mozzarella Cheese

Combine ground beef and spaghetti sauce. Separately combine cottage cheese and egg. Layer half the ground beef mixture, half the noodles, half the cottage cheese mix, then half the mozzarella. Repeat. Cover. Cook on high 4-5 hours or low 6-8 hours. (I have tried this on high every time and it seems to work well, even at 4 hours. Don’t push it and only cook 3 hours. Don’t ask how I know that. :) )
