Western Surprise (Rice and Wiener Dish)

I invented a recipe!!!  Well, sort of.  It’s a combination of something my mom used to make called Western Surprise, and something I found online.  And it actually turned out pretty good.  Probably still  need to tweak the recipe a bit so don’t blame me if you make it and it doesn’t work!My family loves to eat rice.  After spending two years in Korea and eating rice every day, you’d think my guy would be tired of it, but no.  And with a gluten free daughter, rice dishes work well for us.
Hope you can read my writing – I just didn’t feel like retyping it!
I guess the first line should say “1 package wieners – thinly sliced” – I don’t think you can find a package of thinly sliced wieners!
The part I like best about this is the “throw it in a pot and let it do it’s thing”.  I’m so lazy in the kitchen!
And they all liked it!!!  (That orange thing looks like a piece of carrot – don’t think I put any carrots in, but you could throw in anything else you wish.  Just remember, if it’s dried, you may need to add a little more water to allow for reconstitution.)
There’s my Mac in pony tails for the first time – kicking back enjoying her lunch, dog waiting for crumbs to fall and sick sister on the couch in the background.  A typical day!

Bev’s Chicken Casserole

Well, I’m not sure who Bev is, but we sure love her Chicken Casserole!
First step is to find a little cutie who is working on a YW Personal Progress goal who is willing to help you in the kitchen!
She’s chopping the tomatoes, onions and green onions.  (I was going to do the onion but she insisted she wanted to – because she wanted to cry!  She claimed she’s never cried cutting an onion before and wanted another chance to experience it.  Well, she experienced it!!!  I think I’ll be cutting the onion next time!)
Here’s what to do:
– put your chicken pieces in a casserole dish and sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
– Mix together one can of Tomato soup and one can of Cream of Mushroom soup
– then you add in your chopped veggies (tomato, onion and green onion)
– stir that all together and spoon over your chicken.

– Cover and bake at 350 degrees for two hours or until tender.Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

You will be amazed at how easy and delicious it is!
