gone to pot

What? Gone to pot was one of Dad's sayings. I'm not really sure where it came from , but it meant things had gone really bad. This is not the case here. I had leftover roasted chicken. Usually I make a chicken pot pie using cream of mushroom soup, canned veggies and refrigerated pie crust. It was always good. In search of healthier fare I turned to Martha, as in Martha Stewart, my hero. Here is her healthy take on the traditional pie.

 

forget gray canned soup, fresh white sauce with carrots and onion

 

big ole hunks of deli roasted chicken breast

 

 

The crust is frozen phyllo...very light and crisp. It is like paper. I did it without Mary Grace!

Aaaah , you can tell I cooked alone. Kitchen disaster

 

Toasty brown and bubbly

I've lost 5ish pounds. And eating good stuff like this!

Maybe I will tell you about my skinny burrito if you would like????
