Chicken 'n' Noodles

I was really in the mood for some creamy comfort food, and since I already had cooked and shredded chicken in the fridge, I just threw this meal together last-minute. Jerry and I both loved it! If the chicken is already cooked, the whole meal comes together very quickly.

I'm sorry, but this recipe has been migrated to my everyday blog, Runs for Cookies. This link is a direct link to that recipe. Thanks! --Katie

Split Pea Soup

Despite how gross it looks, I LOVE split pea soup. My husband does too, and this recipe is our favorite.

Split Pea & Ham Soup

1 (1 lb) bag of dried split peas
1/2 cup pearl barley
3 carrots, chopped
1 onion, chopped
10 oz. of potatoes, peeled and diced
1 (8 oz) package of diced ham
8 cups chicken broth
1 bay leaf

Place all ingredients in the slow cooker, cover, and cook on high for about 4 hours (or low for 6-8 hours) until thick. Makes 8 servings, approximately 1-1/2 cups each.

Some of these recipes are my own creation, a few are from cookbooks or other sources (which I will cite), but MOST of them are recipes that I've tried and modified into a healthier version.

I've included the nutrition info on most of the recipes (which I calculate using Sparkpeople.com's Recipe Calculator). However, calculating the nutrition info takes a LOT of time that I'd rather spend doing something more interesting, so some of the recipes don't have the facts. You can always go to Sparkpeople and figure it out yourself, however :)
