Salsa chicken recipe is one I got off the board here from someone who no longer posts.
Take chicken breasts (or thighs, I use skinless, boneless chicken thighs). Put in crockpot, sprinkle taco seasoning (I use low-sodium and don't use the whole package; your results may vary).
Mix can of cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup (the original recipe called for mushroom soup, but I didn't like the sound of that, so I switched to chicken; but I think any creamy soup would work; I use the low-fat version) with a cup of salsa; any variety will do.
pour that over the chicken. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
When chicken is tender, add in half cup of light or low-fat sour cream. (Or you can use nonfat yogurt or greek yogurt; it's just to get it a little thicker). Serve over rice; I use brown rice. If you don't use rice, you can serve this without anything. But there's a nice sauce and it's a shame to have nothing to sop it up with.

It's very good and filling. I usually make a double batch and put some in the freezer.

Hi all!  I spent the day trying to get the hay put up before the rain hit.  It wasn’t our day.  The round bailer broke down twice and we had to run to the parts store three time.  No luck getting the part today.  I was raking hay while the DH got the part thinking we would make it.  Boy, am I hurting now.

Under my big incision, I have fluid they found yesterday.  I am supposed to use warm heat and ice to hopefully reabsorb it.  Not happening, the egg sized hard spot is getting bigger.  Did any of you have or hear of such a thing?  If so what did they have to do?

PV....thanks for the initials...that helps!

I am sorry you are having problems. I think you need to stay off your feet for a couple days and get that swelling down. Icing and heat should  help. You should not be working in pain. Remember you are not healed in the inside. You could rupture something or tear something loose. You definitely have fluid of some kind. Could be blood .You have me really frightened me!  Please call your surgeon/doctor if this continues to get worse. No I didn't have anything like that. I wish you the best!!

Prayers and HUGS....connie d

Any idea how long and how often to rotate ice and heat.  I stayed in shower until I ran out of ho****er and than iced down.
