Man is working late tonight & I fell face first into a Mexican potluck for lunch today. So, striaght-up leftovers it is.
Laze-E heated up chicken & rice from the other night & MiniMe had tortilla soup. I'm still regretting that second brownie I had at lunch and haven't eaten anything (so far!). Not that I need to. But if I do, it will be tortilla soup.
MamaFry (Hi Tammy) made a comment about cooking the chicken and rice using brown rice. It turned out great, but needed a longer cooking time. Which made me think that this recipe would work great in a crockpot - and dinner would be ready when you walked in the door after work.
I've been checking on a blog lately A Year of Crockpotting & just now looked to see what sage advice she could offer. Low & behold, she made Chicken & Brown Rice in the crockpot for Tuesday's meal & posted about it on Wednesday. I guess everybody is eating the same thing this week. Her recipe is a little more involved than dumping in cream of something soups, but she's aiming for a gluten-free menu. Looks like you can cook my "recipe" on low for 8 hours.
If anyone tries this, let us know.
