Cheesy Chicken, Rice and Broccoli Soup

I have become really comfortable with my pressure cooker.  I have gotten to the point I just throw in some ingredients that sound good and see what becomes of them.

This is my latest concoction..Cheesy Chicken, Rice and Broccoli Soup.

CheesyChickenBroccoliRiceSoup

This makes a BIG batch…

In your pressure cooker put:
Two raw chicken breast that have been cut up into small bit size pieces
1/2 chopped onion
1 can cream of chicken soup
4 chicken bullion cubes
1 cup raw rice
1 package of frozen broccoli…fresh would work too.
1 can of cheese soup or 1 jar of cheese dip
Fill the pressure cooker to the half way full level with water

Start you pressure cooker out on high.  When it starts to whistle, turn it to medium.  Set your timer for 15 minutes.  Once the timer goes off, take the pressure cooker off the burner.  Let the pot sit for 20 minutes.  Run the pressure cooker under water and release the pressure.  Out comes perfect soup.  If it is a bit thick, you can add milk.

There is something SUPER about pressure cookers that makes the tastes and flavors AMAZING.

A Barn Raising Setting

I have gotten a few comments from readers about my Moda Bake Shop quilt.

Many of the comments mentioned how I laid the quilt out in quadrants.

I have found that I love this method when working with quilts that are set in a barn raising design.  It is MUCH easier for me to work with a smaller portion of the quilt top making sure the blocks aren’t twisted and balancing the colors.

I am using that method as I am working on my Blue Ridge Beauty quilt too.

So far, I have three of the four quadrants complete…so hopefully it will be a quilt top soon. Right now I am stopping as I am out of blocks.  I think I have planned to make the quilt smaller when I originally was making it.  Now I’ve decided large would be my preference so I am back to making blocks.  It’s only 17 more so I am within striking distance of having this quilt closer to finished.  Making the extra blocks is just another story that this quilt has to  tell.

If you missed the giveaway sign up, you can find it here.   If you missed yesterday’s “Waste Not Wednesday” post, you can find that here.  It was a busy blog day here with two posts, I just wanted to make sure you caught them all.
