Soups and Stews

For this week, I have had a bit more of a trying time with food.  Temptation surrounds me at work but thankfully the only thing that is readily available is the candy behind the counter.
I have had beef stew for the past few days, due to how the hubby and I have chopped up potatoes and carrots, and then browned the stew meat.  We always have gravy from a jar to make the soup part of the stew.  John was saying that we should maybe put mushrooms in it for an added flavor. 
I'm still looking for different soups to try, along with different chili recipes.  I need to have the meat stick to my bones during the rest of this cold but sometimes warm weather we are having.
I think I would like to try this recipe for Chicken and Noodles that I found in my recipe-a-day office calendar.

You need:
1 lb. chicken
1 (26 oz) can cream of chicken soup
1 pkg egg noodles
2 to 3 bouillon cubes
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:    Boil the chicken in water.  When chicken is done, take out of pot and save water.  Use this as the starter.  Add cream of chicken soup, noodles and bouillon to water.  Cut up chicken and add to pot.  Cook until the noodles are done.  Add salt and pepper to taste.


This and a salad -- yum!!  Homemade is always better than something you get from a can. 

Soon I will tell you about my chicken fingers that I will be making and other recipes that I find!
