That is the name my girls gave to the dish I created tonight…..yes….I actually made something without any recipe—miracles DO still happen.
I am not one that likes to go-it-alone in the kitchen without a recipe because I HATE to mess up and I HATE to waste food (and messed up food is a waste!). But tonight I was stuck. Thursday nights are often quesadillas or burritos for us (Dad isn’t home for dinner). Both of those options require tortillas and I was low on tortillas. The other Thursday night option is often pancakes and I just wasn’t in the mood. So I hit the freezer. There I found some of my favorite grilled chicken strips from Tyson’s.
But what could I do with them?
Ahhh…..some noodles….but what else?
Good ole “Cream of” to the rescue….I could mix that in with some milk to thin it out.
Chicken Noodle Yum!
Boil water to prepare 3 cups of medium egg noodles.
2 cups of Tyson’s Grilled and Ready chicken
- warm the chicken in a non-stick skillet for 3 minutes
Add to chicken
- one can of cream of chicken soup
- milk…probably 1/4 cup???? The purpose was to thin out the soup- I didn’t measure as I dumped the soup in a 2 cup measuring cup and then poured milk over it until the milk was even with the dumped out soup.
- stir and pour over the chicken warming in the skillet
By this time your noodles should be done.
Drain the noodles and add to the chicken and soup mixture.
Then I seasoned with salt and pepper.
I also had some spices from Christmas from my MIL. I sprinkled the Pasta Sprinkle from Penzeys Spices over everything. Basically this is just basil, oregano, garlic and tyme in a jar!
Serve warm.
Both of my girls ate it right up and I loved that we had a warm meal quickly after a busy afternoon.
Enjoy!
Sounds great!! I cooked a simple dinner, too….at Casa don Boni!! Pop had a meeting at 5..I had a church meeting at 6..so after our meetings, we “met” to eat! Thanks for the cudos to the MIL!! Love ya!
