Chicken Pot Pie

(1 reviews) Posted by vivmom  

This is Betty Crocker's chicken pot pie version with a couple minor adjustments. It's a great recipe! We gobble up this pie and frown a bit upon realizing the last slice is gone. Homemade crust sends this over the top...but use pre-made crusts... MORE»

We just love food like this in our house...can you go wrong with eggs, cheese, potato, nuts, and a dollop of sour cream to boot? This omelet is served from the skillet, cut into pie-shaped pieces. MORE»

Peanut Butter Cookies (With a Corn Flake Crunch!)

(2 reviews) Posted by vivmom  

I like to use one stick of butter and one stick of regular Blue Bonnet margarine for cookies that call for 1 cup of butter. These cookies have a subtle peanut taste and a little bit of crackle from the corn flakes. MORE»

Chicken and Peppers in Balsamic Vinegar Glaze
