********************************************************
- 2 cans of cream of chicken soup
- Frozen deep dish pie crust - enough for top and bottom
- 1 to 1 1/2 pound of chicken (boneless chicken breast works best)
- 1 can green beans or equivalent amount in frozen green beans
- 1 can corn or equivalent amount in frozen corn
- baby carrots
While the chicken is cooking, put the carrots in your Handy Chopper and chop them. If you decide to use the frozen vegetables, microwave the green beans, corn, and carrots together and then drain when cooked. If you decide to use the can vegetables, drain the beans and corn, however, chopped the carrots still have to be cooked.
In a large bowl, add the cooked vegetables to the two cans of cream of chicken soup. When the chicken is cooked, cut into bite size pieces and add to the soup/vegetable mix.
As for the pie crust, make your own or use frozen pie crusts if you have a brand that you really like. Whatever you choose to do, make sure it is a deep dish variety. For those of you that don't like a lot of crust, use a deep dish baking dish and just cover the top of the mixture with a pie crust.
Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie crust or baking dish. Cover the top with the remaining pie crust and seal the edges. Cut several slits on the top of the crust. Place in a 350 degree oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
If you like, serve with a salad, or just by itself.
Well, it’s that time of year when apples start to come in. McIntosh, my favorite, should be or all ready is being picked. They are great for eating and baking. For this recipe you will want to use an apple, like McIntosh or Gala, which is juicy.

Mix the flour with the next 5 ingredients. Coat the chicken with the flour mixture (if you are using a whole chicken, you will need to cut into quarters or have the butcher in your grocery store do it for you).

I hope you all had a wonderful and safe 4th of July. This week I wanted to do one of the dishes I served for the 4th ... Potato Salad. To be very honest, when I was a child, I hated my mother's potato salad. Everyone else would rave about it, but I would find all kinds of excuses not to eat it. As I grew older, I realized that what I didn't like about the potato salad was the fact that it had onions in it. Now, I love onions and I love potatoes, but I don't like the combination in potato salad...so I created my own recipe without the onions.
Shopping List:
- Red Bliss potatoes (I use these because they hold their shape in the salad. In other words, you
- have Potato Salad not Mashed potato salad.
- Eggs
- Mayonnaise
- Spicy brown mustard
- REAL bacon bits
- Green pickle relish
- Salt and Pepper
Best when made the day before. Serves 8 to 10 depending on serving size.
