Finally - Success!

Finally!  Success!

I changed how I set up and cooked the recipe from March in the Crock Pot and it worked!

What I did differently:

I added the liquids first:  Cream of Chicken Soup & 1 - 32oz container of Chicken Broth.

Stir well.

Then I added the boneless, skinless thawed chicken breasts - diced.

Stir well.

Then I added the spices into the whole mixture.

Stir well, cover with the lid and run the Crock Pot on low for 6 hours.

After 6 hours, stir well.

Add 1 package of the dry egg noodles.

Stir well every 30 minutes for the next 2 hours.

Remove from heat and it's ready to serve!

It was yummy and I was able to take the creation to a Church pot luck dinner!

Trying My Hand At Crock Pot Cooking

I'm not the best cook in the world, so I thought I'd try out a recipe book on the Crock Pot that's been on my kitchen counter gathering dust.  LOL.  It didn't work out that great, but then again, I probably messed up somewhere in the instructions.

I found this book at Costco and thought I'd give it a try.  

My first attempt:

Chicken and Noodles.

Easy, you say?  I still managed to mess it up, too much salt and garlic powder.  Yep.

Getting started...

With the ingredients all in.

As I stated, I messed up on the amount of salt and garlic powder, but I also put the noodles in at the beginning, rather than waiting until the first 6 of 8 hours had passed.

This meant it was a salty, garlic - y mush with chicken.

It was edible for the next few days, so I did eat most of the leftovers.

Maybe I just need to find something simpler.  LOL.
