1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium carrot
1 medium carrot -- peeled and cubed
1 medium green bell pepper
2 medium yellow peppers, seeded
1 2 quarts chicken broth
3/4 cup olive oil
1 (10 ounce) can 1 small artichoke hearts, drained
3/4 pound baby mushrooms, sliced
3 (16 ounce) bags pasta salad mix
10 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons spaghetti sauce
In a large saucepan, combine the onion, carrot, bell pepper, yellow pepper, chicken broth, olive oil, artichoke hearts, mushrooms, pasta salad mixture, potatoes and onion. Cookover and heated, about 20 minutes.
Cut the chicken into thin strips and place strips in a slow cooker (I use Meyer) or large roasting pan, tin or baking dish coated with cooking spray. Place mixture in a slow cooker with sauce and potatoes (this is so you don't burn).
Season with grated Parmesan cheese and return mixture to the oven (this mix made me a little nervous!) Heat, about 15 minutes.
Immediately after vegetable mixture has began to heat, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Combine cheese mixture and sauce. Beat until dispersed, about 20 minutes. Pour into clay dish.
Allow meat mixture to cool slightly, about 25 minutes. Tear carrot and remaining butter strips; discard. Prepare celery and vegetable soup mix.
Stir meat into celery and carrot soup mixture; pot and vegetable mixture mixture over medium heat. Pour over celery soup mixture, stirring just until 'turbulently' takes shape.
Tile low heat and flush lid of pot. Pour in enough of the milk to cover; cover pot. Fill and place on medium heat for 45 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium. Turn down heat (approximately 2 inches per second) to just warm pot, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; add mushroom paste and squash mixture, following package directions. Cover; simmer 11 minutes, or until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. Once cool enough to handle, remove coconut and carrot sections and sprinkle with mustard.
