CHICKEN POT PIE SOUP

This is one of my favorites for those cold fall and winter nights. My friend Jen originally introduced it to me. The recipe is from allrecipes.com Instead of crackers to top it off I use biscuits. You can make your own from scratch or by the frozen or kind in a tube.

Enjoy!

Buffalo Chicken Dip

Been meaning to post this for a while, Buffalo Chicken Dip is great for tailgating and the recipe lends itself to personal preference altering. I've taken this to a couple parties or cut the recipe and made at home for me and Stephen while we watch college football. Here's the link to the recipe I started with http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Buffalo-Chicken-Dip/Detail.aspx and here's how I altered it for our liking.

Buffalo Chicken Dip
2-3 Chicken Breasts (boiled)
2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup of Blue Cheese dressing
3/4 cup Texas Pete Hot Sauce
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Heat chicken and hot sauce in a skillet over medium heat, until heated through. Stir in cream cheese and blue cheese dressing. Cook, stirring until well blended and warm. Mix in half of the shredded cheese, and transfer the mixture to a slow cooker. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top, cover, and cook on Low setting until hot and bubbly. Serve with celery sticks and crackers.

I figure the more chicken the better so I just make sure it's all covered with hot sauce maybe a little more hot sauce needed for more chicken. Also since I load it with chicken I've found the big scoop corn chips work out great for scooping. Enjoy! When I make it at home I usually don't transfer to a slow cooker and it microwaves fine as leftovers.
