In the winter I am a HUGE fan of soup... especially a quick and easy soup. And since we have had bad weather for the last 11 days (6 days of off-an-on ice, then 5 days of off-and-on snow... with the daily hovering in the teens), a soup definitely hits the spot. And this is one of my favorite soups
Ingredients
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons butter
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Poultry Seasoning
1 teaspoon Onion Powder
Salt
Pepper
1 onion, finely diced
1-2 cans (15 oz each) Chicken Broth
2 (10 ounce) packages refrigerated biscuit dough, torn into pieces
Directions
Place the chicken, butter, soup, garlic powder, poultry seasoning, onion powder, salt, pepper and onion in a slow cooker, and fill with enough chicken broth to cover. Cover, and cook for 4 hours on High. Remove the chicken and shred. Put back into slow cooker and place the torn biscuit dough in the slow cooker and "stir" the dough into the liquid. Cook until the dough is no longer raw in the center (approximately 2 hours).

Drambuie Scotch Whiskey Liqueur
Description
Drambuie is a whisky liqueur. A blend of aged Scotch whisky, spices, herbs & heather honey. Its origins can be traced to a secret recipe created for Bonnie Prince Charlie by his Royal Apothecary in the 18th Century. The name Drambuie is derived from Scots Gaelic ‘An Dram Buidheach’ and means “The Drink that Satisfies." Allegedly only three people on Earth know the recipe and it's now in its fifth generation of blenders. Note that liquors like Drambuie should be refrigerated once opened.
It's Super Bowl time, and what is better than snack foods for watching the big game! Since Russ and I live in Missouri, and I was raised to support our state teams (and Russ gladly joined in cheering them on), I went on the hunt for a Kansas City based recipe. And KC is known for their BBQ!
Ingredients
1 (13.8 oz) can refrigerated pizza crust
1 cup barbecue sauce, divided
1/2 cup cooked chicken, shredded
1 green onion, chopped
1 cup "pizza style" shredded mozzarella and provolone cheeses
Directions
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Unroll pizza dough onto lightly floured surface; press to form 12-by-8-inch rectangle. Brush 1/2 cup barbecue sauce onto crust to within 1 inch of edges; top with chicken, onions and cheese. Starting at one long side, roll up to form log; pinch edges together to seal. Place, seam side down, on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with remaining barbecue sauce.
