French Onion Chicken
4 chicken breasts (tonight I used 1.5 lbs chicken tenders – which is way too many, but I didn’t think about it)
1 cup Minute rice
1 stick margarine (or butter)
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
1 can French Onion soup
1/2 can milk
Melt the margarine in a 9×13 pan as the oven preheats to 350. Once it is melted and the oven is preheated, pour the rice on top of the melted margarine and mix it together. Spread evenly across the bottom of the pan, even though it’s impossible to do so.
Place the chicken breasts on top of the rice. Mix together the cream of mushroom soup + 1/2 can milk. Pour over chicken. Pour the French Onion soup over that.
Bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes. Mine usually takes about 45.
SO good.
Trader Joe’s is coming to Texas!

When I was in California this summer, you know I had to stop at Trader Joe’s and buy a bunch of stuff. I ended up mailing home a 33 lb box. Holy crap. The 33 lbs does not include the crap we bought to snack on while we were IN California, either! At the Barnes & Noble in The Grove Los Angeles, I spotted a shelf full of Trader Joe’s cookbooks. I’d forgotten about them until now, but I added them to my Wish List board on Pinterest – I have to plan ahead and prepare a list for when my stores open here in Texas, you know.
I also found a few TJ related blogs – LOVE!
Those of you that are TJ’s pros – which products are the must have products? I am already a huge fan of the Black Bean Dip, the Cilantro Salad Dressing, and the Salted Caramel Sauce.
The way we eat is definitely going to change once Trader Joe’s comes to town.
