Frankly, My Dear . . . : What’s on My Plate?
What’s on my plate this week? Well, y’all voted and results are 2-to-1 in favor of Andouille Jambalaya.
Just kidding! You already know what’s on my plate, because you voted for potato chip casserole!
Now, the original version is found in The Unemployment Cookbook, but as you can probably tell by the photo above, BEE The Zebra is not about to let Nippers have all the redoux fun.
Potato Chip Casserole: Five Ingredients
BEE likes to get crazy creative in the kitchen (say that five times fast!), and he also likes to add some sass to everything he touches. Of course he does, he’s a dazzling Zebra, after all.
So of course regular chips and regular meat wouldn’t do for his culinary contribution. Why, he practically leapt out of my bag at the store when he saw these on the shelves:
BEE spicy and sassy!
Hulloh! Sweet Southern Heat Barbecue chips and buffalo sauce chicken? It’s a match made south of the Mason-Dixon Line, yes? Oh, honey, I cannot begin to tell you the mouth watering that happened before we even started cooking.
What’s that? You want the full recipe? Say no more. BEE, if you please:
The Unemployment Cookbook: Potato Chip Casserole
Ingredients
- 1 bag (8 to 12 oz.) potato chips, crushed like little nuts under your hoof
- 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted. That means don't add anything to it.
- 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted. Nothing but 100% strength, here.
- 1/2 soup can full of moo juice. That's milk, remember?
- 1 can (10 to 12 oz.) tuna or chicken, drained.
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients together like a herd in a stampede. Just not so vigorously it spills over.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

A few helpful tips for y’all:
- If you buy a smaller bag of chips, use a smaller can of meat and only one can of soup.
- BEE likes to get the combo soup- chicken and mushroom in one can. Hey, works for me!
- I mix in a larger bowl then transfer to a smaller baking dish.
- You can sprinkle with cheese or jalepenos. Or both!
The next recipe poll will post next week, so be sure to follow Molly Jo Realy on Facebook for your chance to vote!

Who doesn’t love a good meat-and-potatoes dish? Here’s a great recipe my mom handed down. Quick, easy, delicious… and smells so good when cooking!
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. ground beef, make into four patties
1 medium onion, sliced
2 or 3 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered/sliced thick
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
In the center of a large square of heavy duty cooking foil, place hamburger patty. Top with onion slice, potato, and approx. 1/4 can of soup. Salt and pepper each layer to taste. Wrap tightly.
Repeat for patties 2 – 4.
Place on cookie sheet or in cake pan. Bake at 350 for 1 hour. Remove from oven. Be careful upon opening as packets will be very hot and steamy.

I love the creamy, cheesy soups at restaurants. But I can’t afford to go out each time I want one bowlful. For the price of less than three restaurant servings, this recipe serves up 12 or more portions. It’s simple to make, freezes well, and goes great with breads.
It can be made on the stove top or in the slow cooker. Directions for both follow the recipe.
INGREDIENTS:
1 chopped onion
2 TBSP butter [if stove top, not needed for slow cooker]
6 small red potatoes, chopped
1 large [26 oz.] condensed Cream of Chicken soup
1 soup can of water
16 oz. frozen broccoli, thawed and chopped
1/2 can milk
1 lb. Velveeta cheese, cubed
1 celery stalk, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
4 – 6 strips cooked bacon, crumbled
Salt and pepper to taste
Chives for garnish [if desired]
STOVE TOP DIRECTIONS:
Saute’ onion in butter.
In 5-quart stockpot add onion, potatoes, soup, water. Mix well, bring to light boil for 10-15 minutes until potatoes are cooked. Add broccoli, milk, carrot, celery. Stir regularly. Bring to light boil for 5 minutes. Add bacon, mix well. Reduce heat to medium high. Add cheese. Stir until melted.
SLOW COOKER DIRECTIONS:
In 5-quart crock pot combine all ingredients (butter not needed for slow cooker).
Cook on high for three hours, stirring every hour to blend cheese and ingredients.
*You may want to soften the potatoes before adding to the slow cooker. You can do this by either boiling for 10 minutes, or microwaving for 6 minutes (be sure to puncture first, so they don’t explode!). Handle carefully, as they will be hot, and cut into pieces before adding to slow cooker.
