I'm breaking the rule twice in a row (so far!) Six ingredients, but just don't count the dab of butter:  ha!

 Here's another recipe my daughter used to like to make when she was in college and out on her own:

Swiss Chicken and Dressing

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts

6 slices Swiss cheese

1 can Cream of Chicken soup

½ soup can white wine (may use cooking wine)

1 package seasoned stuffing mix

a little butter or margarine

Butter 9” x13” baking pan. 

Place chicken breasts in pan.  Put a slice of cheese on top of each piece of chicken. 

Mix soup and wine together; pour over top of chicken. 

Sprinkle stuffing mix (prepared or not prepared-as you desire) over everything. 

Dot with butter or margarine.   

Bake at 350 for 1 ½ hours.

Enjoy!!

I live alone & don't care to cook.     One of my favorite meals is a loaded baked potato.    I cook the potato in my  microwave then top it with whatever I have & love--butter, sour cream, bacon or other chopped protein.   I like BBQ pork or chicken.  I don't prepare it myself, I get take out BBQ or there are also some good grocery store products.   I have also purchased a soft taco supreme, got rid of the soft tortilla & put the filling on my potato.

Just think about what you like to eat & build from there.

Rotisserie chicken & sides.  Tuna-macaroni salad.   Be creative

Hi ladies, Since I am now retired and just cook very little I look for easy recipes.

Anyone care to share simple 5 ingredient or less recipes?

That is a good ideal on the taco.  I am not much of a fan of Taco's but do love Mexican Food and baked potatoes.  Taco Bueno has .59 cent tacos on Thurs. maybe this week I will get a few and just recycle the filling!!  Thanks for the inspiration.  I too live alone and am always looking for something easy and different.

Cooking is not my husband's "thing" but he makes a turkey burger that even die hard "a burger isn't a burger unless it is made out of meat"  burger lovers like. These are very good reheated the next day!

My husband's turkey burgers:

(makes 4 burgers)

1 pound ground turkey (85% is best)

1 Granny Smith apple

1 Medium to Large onion

2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

3 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

2 tsp soy sauce or salt to taste

Dice onion.  Place half in medium bowl.  Put remaining onions in non-stick fry pan with olive oil and cook over medium heat until soft, about 4 minutes.  Add this to raw onions in bowl.

Add ground turkey to bowl.

Add chopped parsley to bowl.

Split apple in half.  Take one half and cut into small dice. Add to bowl.  (Munch on other half while cooking burgers 😀)

Thoroughly mix and form into 4 patties.  Cook over med heat (using same pan onions were cooked) until thermometer reads 165. 

Serve in buns or not.  He loves to top them with "Howards" sweet pepper relish.
