My Aunt Linda gave my mom this really yummy and fun recipe book a few years back called "Favorites." It sat on my counter and I used it often. Well Linda recently moved back to Utah and had us all at her house for my sister's Baby Shower. At the shower, at my Baby L's Blessing and another time we went to her house she made some AMAZING chicken salads. The recipes came from a new cookbook from the same amazing women that made the first...it's called "Keeping Up Cookbook" and you can purchase it HERE!!

No Name DELICIOUS Salad:)
My aunt served up another FANTASTIC salad for us at my sister's baby shower and funny thing is I didn't get the name of it from her. So we will just call it an EASY DELICIOUS salad...
Head of Romain lettuce, washed and shredded
1-2 cans of black beans, rinsed and drained
Roasted corn = place frozen corn on cookie sheet, drizzle with olive oil and bake, turning occasionally till roasted.
Diced or shredded cooked chicken (She cooks hers in the oven)
1 sm. onion diced
Dressing = Equal parts buttermilk ranch dressing and Sweet Baby Ray's Barbeque sauce
Toss with salad and sprinkle with Tortilla Chip Strips!! This is such a refreshing, yummy salad!
ENJOY!!

Crock Pot Scalloped Potatoes & Chicken
Scalloped Chicken & Potatoes:
1 box scalloped potatoes (including seasoning packet)
6 chicken tenders
3 cups water
Put potatoes in greased slow cooker first, followed by seasoning packet and chicken. Pour water over all. Cover and cook on low heat 4-5 hours.
I found this somewhere out there on the internet...don't remember where but I have been dying to try it! My husband loves Scalloped Potatoes so it was a huge hit at the dinner table. I LOVED how it was fast, easy and yummy! Only thing I would do differently is to double it.
ENJOY!!
