Note: I used my metal meatloaf pan.  I prefer this pan over the glass Pyrex loaf pans because it is a little more shallow and wide.  This helps to avoid a dough center.

1 1/2 cup milk or half & half
1 can cream of potato soup
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 cups cooked, cubed chicken
1 can whole kernel corn, undrained
1 (4 oz.) can green chilies, chopped

Basic Whole Wheat Bread Recipe        LeArta Moulton

This recipe makes 5 loaves.  When cut in half, makes 3 loaves (8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2) or 38 rolls.  Use an electric bread mixer or knead by hand.

Mix in bowl until flour is wet:
5 cups hot tap water (140 degrees)
1/2 cup honey
6 cups flour (white whole wheat or half red and white whole wheat)
1/2 cup gluten flour (optional)

Add and knead for 15 seconds on low speed.
3 TBSP yeast

Add and then mix for 5 minutes:
2/3 cup oil
1 TBSP salt
3 TBSP lemon juice (optional)

Continue adding flour (5 1/2 - 7 cups) until dough has formed a ball and is not sticking to sides or bottom of bowl, then knead the dough on high speed for 6 minutes or more until the dough is elastic-like and smooth.  You may have to add a sprinkle of flour now and then so the dough pulls away form the sides of the bowl.  With oil on your hands remove the dough from the bowl.  Before placing dough into pan, fold and pound with side of fist a few times to get any air bubbles out and form into a ball shape.  This process also helps the bread to raise higher and gives it a better texture.  Put the ball of dough into greased pans and let it rise on countertop until double in size.  Place in oven and then turn oven on to 350 degrees (don’t preheat) and bake for 35 minutes.  Bread is done when top crust is browned and loaf has a hollow sound when thumped.  The bottom crust should be nicely browned.  Turn out on wire rack to cool.  Store in plastic bags.  (I actually put the hot loaves into bags to keep crust soft.) Freeze if not using within a few days to keep from drying out.
