Chicken and Mushroom Pie Recipe #379197
This is a private recipe made public so that I could add it to a cookbook for my family. The notes pertain to my family.
This is yummy but, Doug, you need to scoop the mushrooms out of Chris's piece and then mark his part. This is my own recipe made for my family.
