After church, some friends came over for lunch. I made super-easy Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup. (Note: This is a Southern Living recipe that hasn't been published yet; I can't post it but will be happy to verbally share it.) It has a great flavor and is made completely from convenience products. I combined the ingredients last night and refrigerated them; then I poured the mixture into the slow-cooker, and set it on WARM while we were at church. The soup was just right! (You can use a rotisserie chicken or roast your own; either method works well.) We also had Cheese Muffins (a variation of Cheesy Sausage Muffins, minus the sausage) and Apple Streusel. I made up the recipe for dessert on the spot because I hadn't prepared anything and wanted to serve one. Very simple!
Apple Streusel
4 apples, cored and chopped
1/2 cup sugar
Juice of 1 orange
3/4 cup oatmeal
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, melted
Vanilla ice cream (optional)
1. Combine apples and next 2 ingredients in a bowl. Pour mixture into a baking dish.
2. Stir together oatmeal and next 4 ingredients; sprinkle mixture over apples.
3. Bake at 400° for 30 minutes. Serve with ice cream, if desired.
