Finding the Pieces to the Health Puzzle

Ok…so my Food Fridays did not start out real consistent. I apologize for that.

But I do have a yummy recipe for today:

Homemade Chicken Potpie

2 Tbs olive oil
1 medium yellow onion – diced
2 Tbs flour
1 1/2 cup chicken broth (I highly recommend an organic brand, or at the very least, make sure you get one that doesn’t have MSG in it)
1 bag frozen mixed veggies (I like the one with corn, peas, carrots, and green beans)
1 – 2 cups cooked chicken – shredded (depends on how much chicken you want…I personally like more veggies than chicken)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 piecrusts

Saute onion in oil for 3 minutes. Add flour, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Still stirring, add broth. Cook until thickened about 4 minutes. Add mixed veggies, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.

Spoon mixture into bottom pie crust. Top with the other pie crust. Moisten edges and pinch down. Cut a few small slivers on top. Place pie pan on cookie sheet. Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown, about 15-18 minutes.

This is so easy, yummy, and I love that it is made with such simple, pure ingredients. I can have my potpie without all the preservatives.
