    This time around I bought more pre-made stuff because I don't have as much time to cook.  I went to Costco/Sam's Club and bought some lasagnas and tons of other frozen meals.  I love my chicken tortilla soup recipe and it freezes really well...

    4 chicken breasts, boiled then either chopped or shredded
    1 can Cream Of Chicken soup
    1 packet Fajita seasoning
    1 can Rotel tomatoes (I like the hot version - definitely gives it a kick!)
    1 chopped Onion
    A couple cloves of garlic
    1 can creamed style corn
    2 tsp. flour
    1-2 tsp. cumin
    3 tablespoons butter
    Cilantro
    3-4 cups chicken broth
    Cheese for garnishment
    1 quart milk (I think less is completely fine)

    In large pot, sautee onion and garlic in butter.  Add flour and stir.  Add fajita seasoning, broth and milk.  Boil to thicken.  Add cream of chicken soup, rotel tomatoes and cream-style corn, chicken and cumin.  (I bring to a boil then simmer however long.  If your chicken was already cooked, just heat it up.  If the chicken was added raw, the soup will need to simmer until chicken is completely cooked.  This can be a crock pot meal if you want it to be.)

    Serve with cheese and chopped cilantro.

    We're going to stock up our freezer this weekend.

    Along with Chili, we're making: 

    Spinach Lasagna
    Baked Ziti
    DH's famous sloppy joes (really awesome)
    Tuna Noodles Casserole
    Chicken & Stuffing Bake
    Chicken Alfredo Pasta

    I'm sure you could just google for similar simple recipes. I just have the recipes hand written in my book.

    A favorite around our house that I'm going to make this weekend is taco soup. The recipe is hand written, but I will type out if you are interested. Just reply and I will check back later!
