                    Bacon and canned cream of Mushroom soup dress up tender chicken in Jane Thocher's recipe.  I relied on this dish often when our children lived at home,  recalls the Hart, Michigan reader.  Since it cooked while I was at work, the only thing left to do was prepare noodles and fix a salad.  Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                6 bacon strips  |  
                                                1 package (2-1/2 ounces) thinly sliced dried beef  |  
                                                6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves  |  
                                                1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour  |  
                                                1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted  |  
                                                1/4 cup sour cream  |  
                                                hot cooked noodles  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. In a skillet, partially cook bacon over medium heat. Drain on paper towels. Place beef in a greased 3-qt. slow cooker. Fold chicken pieces in half and wrap a bacon strip around each; place over the beef. 2. Combine the flour, soup and sour cream until blended; spread over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or until chicken juices run clear. Serve over noodles. Yield: 6 servings.                              |
