Easy Chicken Pot Pie!

Hi My Loves!!

It's that time of year where meals in our home take a bit if a change. The cooler weather makes me crave slightly heartier meals and this is one of our favorites. I got this recipe from one of my lovely subscribers and its so easy and soooo yummy! Perfect for the busy mommy or anyone really!

Here's what you will need:

*Rotisserie chicken (I just use both breasts and break them up with my hands into small pieces)

*1 can of cream of chicken soup

*1 bag if frozen mixed veggies (I get the one with carrots, peas, green beans)

*Pillsbury frozen pie crusts (I tried the Walmart brand and it wasn't as good) it comes with 2

*Salt & Pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 and take frozen pie crusts out if freezer ( follow directions on back of pie for how to use it for a two crust pie.... You basically just cut away the edge of the crust on the one that will be on top while its frozen)

2. Boil your water in a pot for your veggies and add them in once its boiling and leave them in for about 5 minutes or until they are soft

3. Break up your chicken breasts into smaller bite size pieces

4. In a large mixing boil add your cream of chicken soup, salt abd pepper, chicken breasts and veggies (drain them first if course). Mix all the ingredients together.

5. Add the mixture to the bottom pie crust (still in the silver thingy)

6. Place the other pie crust over the bottom and crimp the edges together with a fork. Slit 3 slits in the top with a knife.

7. Place on a baking sheet and put in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the crusts is a nice golden color.

8. EAT!!!!

Hope you like it :) Post a pic on my Facebook page if you make it. I'd love to know how it turns out :)

Thanks for reading!!

Happy Fall :)

Quick & Easy Pasta!

Hi My Loves!!!

I made this pasta the other night and it was so yummy and so easy to make. This is a great meal if you don't have much time and only have a few ingredients. Also great for people who are vegetarian's or someone who just wants a meal without meat :)

Normally when I make this I add goat cheese, however when you are preggy it's not recommended to eat goat cheese (I'm sure it's fine but I chose not to use any)..... I also LOVE adding pine nuts to mine as well but we didn't have any so ours was quite basic. I would normally add onions too, but we din't have any. Those are some great additions to this meal!

Jay likes to add some parmesan to his ;)

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

Thin Spaghetti

 3- Garlic Cloves

6- On The Vine Tomatoes 

Asparagus

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Salt & Pepper

Basil

Butter

DIRECTIONS:

1. In two separate pots, boil water with a splash of olive oil (one for pasta, one for asparagus)

2. Once boiling add pasta (usually takes about 10-11 minutes for pasta to be done)

3. Cut asparagus into 1 inch bites and add to boiling water about 6 minutes after you added the pasta. Asparagus cooks super quickly! Keep checking it, it usually takes about 5 minutes.

4. Chop garlic and add to another pan with some olive oil. Cook on medium/high for a few minutes.

4. Dice tomatoes and add to the pan with garlic and cook on medium, adding salt, pepper & basil to taste. Cook until tomatoes become more of a sauce/softer.

5. Drain pasta and put back into the pot, add some butter or olive oil (our olive oil had quite a strong flavor so I prefer to use butter for this part)

6. Add your tomatoes and asparagus (drain it first) and mix all together.

7. Plate it up, add your cheese (if you like) and DING..... it's done!

8. ENJOY :)

Hope you all have an amazing Easter tomorrow ;)
