chicken....again?

cooked Wednesday, October 7
Yes, we had chicken again. This time, chicken pot pie. It's a GREAT recipe that I got from Stephanie. She made it for Janie and me several weekends ago and I've been thinking about it ever since. :)

here's the recipe:

Chicken Pot Pie

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. chicken, cooked and cubed
• 2 cans mixed vegetables (Veg-All)
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1 1/4 c. chicken broth
• 1 c. flour
• 1 c. milk
• 1/2 c. or 1 stick butter

Method:

Preheat oven to 350.

In an 8 x 8 baking dish, cover the bottom of the dish with the cooked chicken. Next layer the mixed vegetables. In a seperate bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup and the chicken broth. (Note: for a souper mixture, use 1 1/4 c. of broth. for a thicker mixture, slowly add broth until desired consistancy is reached.) Pour broth mixture on top of mixed vegetables. In a seperate bowl, mix flour, milk and butter to create topping. Finally, add flour mixture to top off pot pie.

Bake at 350 for 1 hour (60 minutes).

Nathan loved it! Huge success but then again, when isn't chicken pot pie a family favorite? We really enjoyed the crust instead of the biscuit topping. Great change! I'm positive that this recipe, although delicious, is not very healthy.

However, it is very cost efficient and versatile. We had everything we needed (or something comparable) in our pantry. I substituted cream of chicken with cream of mushroom and since I only had one can of Veg-All, I added half a can of sweet corn and green beans. Not quite Stephanie's pot pie, but very good!
