Recipe Help!

I need more really good recipes! I have some that we love, but only a couple of weeks worth of really good ones. I try out a new one at least every other week, but only some of those end up being worth repeating. I feel like we're stuck in a rut and I am a person that likes variety. If you have any great recipes, please share! Because many of you may be in the same boat, here are a few of our favorites.

Slow-Cooker Barbeque Chicken
1 lb. chicken breasts or tenders
1 10 3/4 oz. cans tomato soup
3/4 c. onion, chopped
1/4 c. white vinegar
3 T. brown sugar
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. basil

Place chicken in crockpot. Combine all remaining ingredients and pour over chicken. Cover. Cook on low 6-8 hours.

Cream Cheese Chicken
1 lb. chicken breasts or tenders
1 pkg. Good Seasons Italian dressing mix
1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese
2 10 3/4 oz. cans cream of chicken soup

Place chicken in crockpot. Pour dressing mix on top. Bake on low for 5-6 hours. Put cream cheese in crockpot and stir until creamy. (This stirring shreds the chicken.) Stir in the soup. Serve over rice.

Chicken Tortilla Casserole
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 4 oz. can chopped green chiles
2 cups sour cream 10 corn tortillas (the small size)
3 cups chopped chicken 2 cups shredded fiesta or Mexican blend cheese

Combine: soups, onion, chiles, sour cream, chicken and cheese. Cut tortillas in fourths. Layer: 1/2 tortillas, half chicken and cheese mixture and repeat. Cover with foil and bake 50 minutes at 350 degrees. Uncover (top with more cheese if desired) and bake a additional 10 minutes.

Simply Delicious Salsa (This isn't a main course, but it is irrisistibly good!) 1 pkg. Good Seasons Italian dressing mix prepared with oil & vinegar according to package instructions (I do the low oil directions)
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can corn, drained
3 tomatoes diced or 2 cans petite diced tomatoes, drained
1/4 cup green onion, finely chopped
1/2 bunch cilantro, finely chopped
2 avocados, diced

Mix dressing, stir in everything but avocado. Mix in avocado just before serving.

Hope you enjoy these and please share some with me!

I wish I had something good to share. Give me a little longer to think about it.

But you can bet your buns I'm going to be stealing that salsa recipe :) Hee hee.
