Recipe(tried): Chicken Pot Pie

Parri, I personally think I have the best Chicken Pot Pie recipe in the world!
It's one I can always trust to take to someone who had a baby, or needs help
with meals for whatever reason.....


1/3 - 1/2 bag of frozen peas
1/3 - 1/2 bag of frozen carrots
1 cup chopped mushrooms
1/4 cup butter
1/3 cup flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp rubbed sage (or more to taste)
1/2 tsp. black pepper (or more to taste)
1 cup water
1 3/4 cups milk
1 Tbsp. instant chicken boullion powder (or 3 cubes)
3 cups cooked chicken

Pie crust (make your own or I often use Pillsbury's for quick)

Steam veggies, drain and set aside. Cook mushrooms in butter.
Stir in flour, salt, sage and pepper till paste-like. Add water, milk in
gradually to avoid lumps, then add chicken boullion. Cook & stir until thick
and then 2 minutes more. At this point taste and add more sage or pepper if
desired. Stir in veggies and chicken. Pour into crust and top with second
crust. Cook at 450* until crust is brown.

This recipe freezes well either before added to crust or after fully cooked.
