I sure hope no one went hungry last week, because you were counting on some recipes from me! I am starting to feel the "tiredness" factor of pregnancy take over, plus I was trying to be responsible, so I stayed off the computer more last week!
But we’re back! Here are some yummy recipes!
Deep Dish Chicken Pot Pie
3 c. chopped chicken, cooked
2-15 oz. cans mixed vegetables
6 T. butter
1/3 c. flour
7 chicken bouillon cubes or 7 tsp. granules
(we like Better Than Bouillon)
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. celery seed
4 1/2 c. milk
Melt butter in a large saucepan. Stir in flour, bouillon, pepper and celery seed for about a minute, then stir in milk. Cook and stir until thick. Stir in chicken and vegetables, heat through. Remove from heat and pour into a well-greased 9X13 pan.
Biscuit Dough
3 c. flour (we use half whole wheat, half unbleached)
3/4 tsp. salt
1 c. plus 2 T. milk
6 tsp. baking powder
5 T. butter
Mix dry ingredients and cut in butter. Stir in milk. Knead slightly on floured surface. Pat evenly (about 3/4 to 1 inch) and cut biscuits. Arrange on top of chicken mixture and bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
My daughter made an extra batch of biscuits to eat with it, and served the meal with fresh tomatoes from our garden! Yum!
I was going to post a breakfast, too, but I might either add it later or do a separate post tomorrow!
Blessings to you as you feed your family!
