We call it "chicken mish-mash"

I accidentally created a delicious dinner last night. And I don't want to forget how to make it, so I'm sharing it on the blog.

It all started when I took out the crockpot and added 2 lbs of chicken (the skinless boneless variety) with a can of cream of asparagus soup. I figured we would just add a side and a vegetable and call it good. Then, I realized that we had some potatoes to use up, so I sliced 4 potatoes and added those. I found a can of french green beans in the pantry, and added that, along with a can of cream of chicken soup, to make up for the extra ingredients. For good measure, I decided to throw in half a stick of margarine. Along with a dash of salt and pepper, of course. Looking back, sliced carrots might have been a good idea. Oh, well. I started the crockpot around 9am and set it to low. (Never, ever set your crockpot to high. This is always a bad idea.)

Around 3pm, I stirred my concoction and thought that it looked a little too soupy. Maybe I shouldn't have added the second can of soup! Then it came to me. Canned biscuits! Of course! The perfect ending to this meal! Jamie and I were on our way out to meet a friend at Hobby Lobby (very cool store, but that's a story for another time), and before we came home, we made sure to pick up some canned biscuits -- in this case, Pillsbury Grand's. It was pretty easy. I just popped the can open (I made sure to get this done before Scott came home, because he *hates* that sound) and made a biscuit layer on top. 30 minutes layer, we were ready to eat, and it was perfect. Not too soupy, not too dry -- just right. I think cheese would also work well in this dish. I'll have to try that next time.

This is how good the dinner was: Jamie ate it! He even tried using his toddler fork, but then he realized that his fingers were more efficient.
