Tater Soup

My mama always made us potato soup when we were sick, so when Reagan was sick the other day, I tried my hand at it. I really wasn't sure how to start, so I looked up about 8 different recipes and decided to combine a few. Here's what I did:

Cube about 8 cups of potatoes (after peeling them, of course)
Cover just barely with water in a large pot & boil until tender
Add about 2 tablespoons butter & stir
Stir in 1 package of cream cheese
Stir in 2 cups of milk (less if you want it thicker)
Stir in 1 can of Cream of Chicken soup
Salt & pepper the pot of soup
Serve into bowls; top with shredded cheddar cheese, bacos, & green onions

Chicken with Penne Pasta and Alfredo sauce

Last night I grilled chicken on the George Foreman with Italian dressing and put it on top of penne pasta (wheat) with Alfredo sauce. Reagan and I both enjoyed this dish. It's pretty simple and doesn't require much brain power.

Thanks Chef Pam for the inspiration.

I'd like to keep a record of all my favorites here so that I can come back to them later... but also comment when I try something new.
