Bacon Ranch Chicken

I have a new website that I absolutely love! Crock Pot Girls!! Have a feeling I will be using this site a lot this fall and winter!

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tbsp. real bacon bits (I used turkey bacon)

1 tsp. minced garlic

1 pkg. ranch dressing mix

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 cup sour cream

egg noodles (Cooked and drained)

Combine bacon, garlic, ranch dressing mix, soup and sour cream; mix well. Pour over chicken in the crock pot. Cook on high for 3-4 hours. Shred chicken and add egg noodles. The recipe says to take the chicken out, but mine was so tender I left it in the crock pot and just pulled it apart with a fork.

Mexican Cornbread

Lydia helped me make Mexican Cornbread for our White Chicken Chili! She is such a sweet little helper in the kitchen! I used Paula Deen's recipe ... so as you can guess, it was great! =)

• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup sifted all purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup whole milk or buttermilk ( I used skim)
• 1/3 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons chopped jalapenos, or to taste

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Grease an 8-inch square pan, cast iron skillet, or cornbread mold. In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. To dry mixture, add egg, milk, sour cream, oil, and jalapenos and mix until smooth. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden.

White Chicken Chili

My sister-in-law gave me this recipe and it was wonderful! I am sure I will be making it a lot this fall and winter! Love sticking stuff in the crock pot and letting it cook all day! Makes getting dinner on the table so much easier, especially with a baby.

2-3 large cans white northern beans (4 small cans)

6 chicken breasts (cooked and shredded)

1 can chicken broth

2 medium onions, chopped (I only used 1/2 an onion)

4 cloves garlic, chopped

1-2 cans cream of mushroom soup

3 Tbsp. chili powder or 1 pkg. chili seasoning

Dump everything into a large crock pot and cook all day. (My favorite part!! )

Serve with Mexican cornbread, salsa, sour cream, or chips.
