diced purple onion

diced red bell pepper

2 cans

cream of mushroom soup

2 cups

chicken broth

1 cup

tofu cut into 1/2 inch pieces

2 tablespoons

dried parsely

1/2 teaspoon

onion powder

1/2 teaspoon

garlic powder

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Cut you chicken breast in half length wise to thin them. Cook in a little oil and top with all dry seasoning and bacon drippings.

Stir in red pepper, onion and mushroom and sauté until soft. About 10 minutes. Add in minced garlic and shredded cheese and tofu pieces.

Stir in both cans of soup and chicken broth and mix well, add in ranch dressing if you desire.

Prepare rice according to directions on package and mix in the chicken and veggie mixture and serve. I garnished mine with more pepper slices, cheese and parsley.
