MOM'S FABULOUS CHICKEN POT PIE WITH BISCUIT CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Whisk in chicken broth and half-and-half, and cook until the sauce is thick and bubbling. Season to taste with salt and black pepper, and mix in the chicken meat.
• Transfer the chicken, vegetables, and sauce into a 2-quart baking dish. Arrange biscuits on top of the filling. In a small bowl, beat egg yolk with water; brush egg yolk on the biscuits.

FABULOUS CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Place chicken breasts in a large pot with chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until chicken breasts are thoroughly cooked.
• 2. Cool slightly and then either shred or cut into small chunks.
• 3. Meanwhile, mince the celery and onion. Quarter the grapes. Dice the apples.
• 4. Mix the mayonnaise and coleslaw mix together. Fold in the chicken and all the prepared ingredients along with the curry powder. Mix well. If desired, add salt and pepper to taste. (I do not use any salt in this recipe--only freshly ground pepper; you can also increase the curry powder to 3/4 teaspoon if you wish a stronger flavor).
• 5. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to blend. Keep refrigerated.

FABULOUS CHICKEN

• 2. Top with cheese.
• 3. Mix soup and juice together and pour on top of cheese.
• 4. Mix dressing mix with butter and pour over soup. Bake at 350 for 1 hour.
• 5. I substitued Gerber's pear juice once because it comes in a tiny bottle and I didn't want to buy a big bottle of white grape juice and it turned out great. I also discovered that Lipton Herb and Garlic soup mix is MUCH cheaper than the dressing mix and so I added 1/2 package of soup mix instead of a package of dressing mix.
