Old/8 recipes

Ridiculously easy chicken, cheese with a mushroom marinara sauce that tastes great! This is a huge hit in our house, kids love it.

This is probably the best scalloped potatoes I've had. We made our own cream of mushroom soup with dried wild mushrooms (see recipe link below). Tons of rich mushroom flavor that was embedded in the potatoes along with a nice cheesy flavor throughout. We used a nice old cheddar.

I got these from an old cookbook, have been using this recipe for decades and it's always a hit.
