Chicken Pot Pie

2 cans cream of potato soup
1 can Veg-all (I also add some frozen mixed veggies. The more veggies, the better in my opinion)
2 cups diced chicken (1 large breast or 2 smaller)
1/2 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Pour into frozen pie crust*. Stab with fork several times. Bake at 350 for about 40-45 minutes, or until crust turns golden brown.

*Can use 2 regular pie crusts to fill 2 smaller pies, or deep dish on the bottom topped with the regular size for 1 larger pie. The filling recipe is enough for 2 smaller pies or 1 large pie.

**Freezing directions: prepare filling as directed but freeze separately from the crusts. Take out of the freezer to thaw the night before or the morning of then pour into crusts and bake as directed.

Lemon Carrots

This is another winner from Momma Winegar's Recipes. I was assigned the vegetable for this weeks Sunday dinner (main course, Swiss Chicken....mmmmmm :) )and remembered this gem. Even the babies liked them!

Cook a 3 lb bag of carrots, steamed or boiled in about an inch of water for 20 minutes or until tender.
In a sauce pan, melt:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (i just used the zest of 1 whole lemon)
1 Tablespoon lemon juice

Add glaze to the cooked carrots. Cook on low heat, turning until carrots are glazed.

Out of this World Rolls

The first time I had these rolls was after Jake and I had been married for a month, at the Winegar Thanksgiving. If there is one thing the Winegar kids LOVE to eat, it is rolls. Anytime we go out to eat, especially to Little America, they only have one thing to say to the waitress, "keep the rolls coming". These rolls that Momma Winegar made that Thanksgiving were no exception, she knows what her boys love! IF there are any leftovers, they are great for turkey sandwiches (or just plain) for the next week+.

ROLLS
Dissolve:
2 pkg. Dry Yeast
1/4 cup warm water

Combine in large bowl:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs, well beaten
1 cup warm water
2 tsp salt

Add yeast and 2 1/2 cups flour, beat with mixer until smooth. Add remaining 2 cups flour. Cover. Let rise 1 1/2 hours. Punch down. Put in fridge covered overnight. Take out and divide in thirds. Flour. Roll in circle & cut pie shaped into eighths. Tuck and roll. Let rise 1 1/2 hours. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes

Momma Winegar's Chili

1 lb hamburger
1 onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1 large can diced tomatoes
1 can creamed corn
1 can kidney beans
1 can no-bean chili
1 large can tomato sauce
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 can chopped olives (opt.)

Brown hamburger, onions, and pepper. Add remaining ingredients and simmer 1 hour. Goes well with cornbread.

*This is a great recipe to double. When I do, I only increase the meat by another 1/2 pound.
