Crockpot Chicken Cordon Bleu
...4 slices Cheese (I used mozzerella)
...1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
...2 T. milk
Prepare your crockpot by greasing the bottom and sides with cooking spray. One at a time, place each chicken breast in a gallon size Ziploc bag and pound thin. Remove from the bag and place 1 slice of ham and 1 slice of cheese on top of each breast. Roll up chicken breast and place seam side down in the crockpot. In a small bowl, wisk together the milk and cream of chicken soup until smooth. Pour mixture over the chicken breasts. Cook on low for 6-7 hours.

Chicken A La King
I found this recipe in my Taste of Home Slow Cooker Favorites Cookbook. I strive to use my slow cooker two times a week, and to have chicken once or more per week. So I figured why not give this a shot. The slow cooker part of it is just for the chicken portion...and then was served a la (teehee...) rice.
...1 can Cream of Chicken soup
...3 Tbsp. flour
...1/4 tsp. pepper
...dash cayenne pepper
...1 lb. chicken, cooked and cut into cubes
...1 celery rib, chopped
...1/2 c. chopped green and red peppers
...1/4 c. chopped onion
...1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen peas
Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on low for 2-3 hours, until the mixture is bubbly and heated through. Serve over rice.

Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Fettuccine
a) For some reason pasta dishes speak "elegance" to me. And after all, elegance is what we're going for on this romantical night.
b) It's in the slow cooker. Which means you don't have to slave over the stove all day to prepare this meal. Instead you can slave away in front of the mirror getting all dolled up for your lovey.
c) Pasta dishes can be paired with a lot of sides very easily. So even if this is the only thing you make off of my "menu" for Valentines Night...then at least you can rest assured it will pair easily with any number of side dishes.
Okay, that's it. I don't quite know if three reasons qualifies as a "multitude" of reasons. But it'll just have to do.
I found this recipe in my trusty copy of Taste of Home's Slow Cooker Cookbook. I originally purchased this cookbook during their annual $5 cookbook sale with the intentions of giving it as a Christmas gift. And then I flipped through it upon recieving it in the mail. Well, let's just say that I gave myself a Christmas gift this year :)
Ingredients...
...1 1/2 lb. chicken, cut into chunks
...1/2 tsp. garlic powder
...1/2 tsp. onion powder
...1/8 tsp. pepper
...1 can cream of chicken soup
...1 can cream of mushroom soup
...4 oz. process cheese (I used American cheese slices, but Velveeta works nicely as well)
...1 can olives
...1 pkg. fettuccine or spaghetti noodles
Place all ingredients except for the pasta in a slow cooker. Stir until well combined. Cook on low for 3 hours. Prepare pasta according to package directions, drain, and serve with sauce.

Salsa Chicken
...4 tsp. Taco Seasoning Mix
...1 cup salsa
...1 cup shredded cheese
Place chicken pieces in a greased oven safe dish or pan. Sprinkle with taco seasoning, covering entire piece. Cover pieces in salsa and bake at 375 until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. I'm not giving you an exact time to cook this because the original recipe says that 20-30 minutes will be sufficient. But when I baked mine, it took over an hour to not have pink chicken. So test, test, test that chicken and make sure you aren't eating raw bird for crying out loud!

Crockpot Chicken Noodle Soup
...8 oz. egg noodles
...3 chopped carrots
...1/2 chopped onion
...1/4 cup butter
...12 cups water
...9 chicken boullion cubes
...1/2 tsp. dried marjoram
...1/2 tsp. black pepper
...1 bay leaf
...1 tbs. dried parsley
Place everything in the crockpot and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8.
This had a great flavor and came out perfectly! I found it a little strange that after refrigeration it kind of gelled up...not really sure what caused this, but it was still tasty. My noodles also look incredibly misformed, as hubs left the crockpot on warm for several hours after it was done cooking. So the noodles sort of took on a life of their own. Still, they were tasty! Perfect for the FIFTY DEGREE weather we've been having in MID JULY!!!

Cheesy Chicken and Potato Casserole
I like easy casseroles. They make life a little easier. This one is great. It's economical (because I know we all have some Betty Crocker potatoes in the stockpile, and some cheap cheese in the freezer...) and tasty (but not so great for the waistline.
Ingredients....
...1 box scalloped potatoes...4 potatoes, thinly sliced
...shredded cheese
...2 chicken breasts (cut into chunks or shredded)
...3 tsp. vegetable oil
...1 can cream of chicken soup (not pictured)
...1 can mushrooms (not pictured)
Before slicing potatoes, cook slighty in microwave to ensure done-ness in the oven (this is crucial. if you don't slightly bake the potatoes beforehand, then you will have crunchy, undone potatoes in your casserole). In a medium pan over medium-high heat, brown chicken until it is white all through. Prepare scalloped potatoes as directed on box. Stir in sliced potatoes, chicken, cream of chicken soup and mushrooms. Bake at 350* for 15 minutes. Add cheese to top of casserole and return to oven for 10-15 minutes.

Chicken Broccoli Divan
...1 1/2 cups cooked, shredded chicken meat
...1 (10.85) oz can Cream of Broccoli Soup (I didn't have any, so I used Cream of Chicken)
...1/3 c. Milk
...1/2 c. Shredded Cheese
...1 T. butter, melted
...2 T. bread crumbs
This was missing something. Spices. When I reheated this for lunch the next day, I mixed in a bit of garlic powder and it really added that missing "something". I think next time I'll add garlic powder and some chopped onion. I also felt that it was missing some sort of a "carb" or "starch" I think next time I will layer some cooked noodles or rice on the bottom before the broccoli. I think that will make this a little more "meal like". I also think that next time I will be stirring the broccoli and chicken into the soup mixture. It just felt too seperated and layered with nothing combined. Otherwise, this is definetely a keeper recipe...it was delish!
