    Take chicken breast and pre-cook it in the microwave. Shred it or cube it. Tear corn tortillas into bite-sized pieces. Mix a can of cream of chicken soup, a can of cream of mushroom soup, cheese and a bottle of green taco sauce in a large bowl with tortillas and chicken. Bake uncovered @350 until nice and bubbly. Sorry I don't use measuring cups, I just eyeball it :)

    4 chicken breasts
    shredded cheese
    can cream of mushroom soup
    can cream of chicken soup
    bag of nacho cheese doritos

    * boil and shred 4 chicken breasts
    * mix soups and one can of the broth from boiling chicken in a bowl.
    * cover bottom of 13x9 pan with chips (break a little, but don't crush)
    * cover with layer of chicken
    * cover with shredded cheese
    * pour half of soup mixture on top.
    *repeat layers, starting at chips.
    I always add a little more shredded cheese to the top--because more cheese is always good!
    Bake until melty!

    Easiest chicken recipe in the world!

    * chicken
    * oregano
    * parmesan cheese
    * mayonnaise

    Even if you don't like mayonnaise (which my husband doesn't, but this is his favourite recipe!), believe me you'll love this! We make it often, for many guests, and no one has *ever* guessed the "secret" fourth ingredient! Just mix together the last 3 ingredients, plenty of each, enough to cover the chicken in a casserole pan, and bake. Almost impossible to cook it too long, it just gets more and more moist as long as you've put enough of the sauce. We serve over pasta or rice and a green veggie on the side.

    Indian style cabbage.

    I make this very simple cabbage 'curry' all the time, my perennial fav. Dice up the cabbage and steam it. In a pan, add a little oil, splutter mustard seeds in it, lightly fry up a bit of chopped ginger added in after the mustard seeds, add in plenty of chopped tomatoes to it and cook well with a pinch of turmeric. Once the tomatoes are well cooked, toss in the steamed cabbage bits to it and salt as required. The cabbage does not need to cook long and you can garnish it with chopped cilantro. The ginger adds such a nice little kick to it and it is perfect with curds (yoghurt) and rice, real comfort food for me. I skipped the part where I add a couple of teaspoons of black lentils and a little pinch of asafotedia after I add in the chopped ginger, it is part of the authentic recipe but many people seem to not prefer them. If the tomatoes are ripe and firm and are well cooked without becoming watery, it is the perfect cabbage curry.

  8. There is a fabulous mac n' cheese recipe that Missie posted & I put it under the 'Side Dishes'. She said you can add chicken or ham to it & it makes a meal all in one pot. So I wanted to put something here about it because it could be a 'Main Course' as well =0)
