Deciding what to cook for dinner can be a challenge. But, after checking what's in your kitchen, the decision becomes easy. I was debating over a pasta or chicken dish. I decided on baked chicken with vegetables and 98% fat free cream of chicken soup. My mother said she uses 98% fat free soup all the time, so I thought I'd give it a try. I wasn't aware my mother had used 98% fat free cream soup after eating some of her delicious chicken she cooked in the crock pot. Though lighter and with less calories than regular cream soups, it doesn't lack flavor.
I still seasoned the chicken with about 1/4 tsp (each) of salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, chicken seasoning, and garlic salt, and about 1/4 cup of white wine. I let the chicken marinade overnight, then added about 1 cup of chopped celery and 1/2 cup of onions. Then, I spread a can of 98% fat free cream of chicken soup on top and baked in the oven for 1 hour at 350 degrees. It's a light, delicious meal your family will love.
You can find recipes like this in my cookbook, "Everyday Comfort Foods with Family and Friends," $8.95) available at IUniverse.com, Barnes&Noble.com, and Amazon.com.
Everyone who's purchased my cookbook seems to have a favorite recipe (or two). A friend recently purchased a copy last weekend and loves the cookbook because she wants to try new recipes. Another person who purchased my cookbook liked the cover photo and the recipes, too. I hope everyone enjoys making the recipes as much as I do. Have fun in the kitchen.
