and serve over rice.
Can also serve in tortillas or taco shells, with chips.

Soy Sauce and Brown Sugar Ribs

1 package ribs

Mix the first 3 ingredients in crockpot, put in a package of ribs. High for 4-5 hours, low for 8. Turn over sometime after the half mark.

This will probably only serve 3 people since it's not fun to share. :) Just double recipe.





Cream Cheese Chicken Soup



1 small Onion, chopped (or you can use minced onion)
2 Tbsp. Butter or Margarine
3 cups Chicken Broth
3 med. Carrots, sliced
2 med. Potatoes, peeled and cubed (of course we just keep cutting until it looks like enough for all who are eating it)
2 cups cubed cooked Chicken (We use a whole pkg.)
2 Tbsp. Fresh Parsley or equivalent amount dried Parsley
Salt & Pepper to taste
1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 cup Milk
1 (8 oz.) pkg. Cream Cheese, cubed

In a large saucepan, saute the onion in butter. Add broth, carrots & potatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover & simmer for 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add chicken, parsley, salt & pepper; heat through. Combine flour & milk until smooth; add to the vegetable mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes, or until thickened. Reduce heat. Add cream cheese; cook & stir until melted.
Yield: 8 servings.
Like I said we usually make a big batch, so we add more then they say!
