 This casserole is so delicious!  We both love it!  It makes a big pan- perfect for sharing.

Chicken Cobbler

Turn oven to 350 degrees.  Cut up a stick of butter and put in a 13x9 pan.  Put the pan in the oven until the butter is melted.  

Add the meat from one rotisserie chicken.  Add 1 bag of peas and carrots.

In a large(quart) measuring cup or bowl, measure 2 cups of milk.  Add to that two small packages of Bisquick biscuit mix with cheesy garlic.  Mix together and pour over the chicken.

A delicious dessert!

Oreo Pie

Crust:

22 regular Oreo cookies

5 T. butter, melted

Crush the Oreos in a food processor or in a gallon sized zip lock bag with a rolling pin.  Pour the crumbs into a bowl and add the butter.  Mix well.  Put the mixture in a 9- inch pie pan and press the crumbs into it and up the sides.  Bake at 350 for about 8-12 minutes.

When the crust is cool, put 1/2 gallon softened cookies and cream ice cream in a large bowl.  Mix and stir until the ice cream is creamy and softened evenly.

Put a bottle of hot fudge sauce in the microwave.  Heat until pourable.  Pour about 1/2 the bottle into the cooled crust.  Spread evenly.  Add the softened ice cream and spread evenly.  Freeze.

When read to serve, cut into pieces.  Reheat the fudge sauce and pour some sauce on each piece.  Top with a dollop of fresh sweetened whipped cream.  Put 1 oreo in the top of the whipped cream for garnish.

Teriyaki Noodles

 This is an easy meal that feeds a big crowd.  Add some fruit and some brownies for a full meal.

Teriyaki Noodles

2 lbs. spaghetti

Yoshidas sauce

Big Bag broccoli, roasted with olive oil and salt and pepper. (You can add whatever other veggies you would like.  I like onion, carrots, mushrooms, summer squash)

Sesame seeds for garnish, opt.

Boil noodles according to instructions on package.  Put them in a big roaster pan.  Pour Yoshidas on and mix.  Add the chicken and broccoli (and other veggies as desired.)  Stir.

We first tasted these when our YW did them for a camp fundraiser.  They had them available to pick up the Friday night before April general conference.  It was a great success.

These are the ones I made for October general conference.  They were so good.
