Fall recipes

I've been meaning to post these for a while. Sorry, it's been crazy here!

Chicken Noodle Soup

egg noodles
1 pound chicken breasts
chopped celery
chopped carrots
chopped mushrooms
chicken broth
basil
oregano
pepper
garlic
dehydrated onion (or fresh minced)

Boil chicken in broth until fully cooked. Remove chicken and chop into bite sized pieces. Add carrots, celery, mushrooms, onions, garlic, chicken and spices. Boil until vegetables are almost tender then add desired amount of egg noodles. Cook until noodles are done.

Beef Stew

2 pounds beef stew meat
1/3 cup flour
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp pepper
1 1/2 cup beef broth
1 tbl Worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic minced
1 bay leaf
1 tsp paprika
4 or 5 carrots sliced
4 potatoes diced
1 onion chopped
3 stalks celery sliced
I also add a few chopped mushrooms sometimes

Put meat in crock pot. Mix flour, salt and pepper. Pour over meat and stir until meat is coated. Add remaining ingredients and stir to mix well. Cover and cook on low 10 hours (or high for 6). Stir thoroughly and remove bay leaf before serving.

Apple Crisp

5 apples peeled, cored and sliced
1 cup yellow cake mix
1 cup flour
1/2 cup oatmeal
1-2 tbl cinnamon
2-3 tbl sugar
1/2 cup butter thinly sliced

Grease an 8x8 square cake pan. Place apples in pan. Mix in sugar with apples. In a large zip lock bag (you can use a bowl , I just usually use these proportions to use the whole cake mix so that the topping is ready for next time too) combine cake mix, flour, oatmeal, and cinnamon until thoroughly mixed. Top apples with flour mixture. Top with sliced butter. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes
