WHAT'S FOR DINNER??? - RECIPE FRIDAY!

Main Course - CROCKPOT BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP

1/2 cup green pepper, chopped

1/2 cup onion, chopped

2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup

1 1/2 cups milk

1 lb Velveeta cheese, cubed

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped broccoli

Directions:

1 Sauté onion and green pepper in butter.

2 Combine all ingredients on low in crockpot for 3-4 hours. Do not add salt.


Side - GARLIC BREAD

1 or 2 packs hamburger buns

Margarine or butter

Garlic powder or salt

Parmesan Chesse

Directions:

Split buns and lay on cookie sheet

Spread butter/margarine and sprinkle with garlic and parmesan cheese. Bake at 300 for 5 to 10 minutes or until desired texture is reached.


Dessert - PEPPERMINT POPCORN BARK

2 bags microwave popcorn, popped (18-20 cups)

1 6oz box candy canes, crushed

1 package Almond Bark

1 tsp peppermint extract or a few drops of peppermint oil

Place popcorn in a very large bowl - the biggest one you have. Pour crushed candy canes on top of the popcorn. (I don't crush my candy canes in the food processor - but it is quick and it pulverizes the candy canes!) Melt almond bark according to instructions on the package. Add the peppermint extract or oil to the almond bark and pour over popcorn. Stir until all the popcorn is coated. Pour popcorn on wax paper and allow to harden. Once the popcorn has hardened, break into pieces and enjoy!
