I wish that every day were Saturday...

My great intentions for last Saturday had been to spend the day cooking. Instead, I wrote and wrote. Finally, at seven in the evening, I started cooking. This is not the time of evening to start cooking, especially when you have to get up the next morning. However, my wonderful husband helped me so much.

After fighting with a chicken, suffering from the lack of counter space, and a limited amount of time, I was able to complete the three recipes that had been on the agenda. I'll share more later, but today we are enjoying the homemade chicken potpie.

To enjoy this amazingly delicious recipe,

This recipe makes two potpies, one to cook and one to freeze!

Use the store bought frozen pie crust. There are lots of kinds to buy, but I choose the kind that is already in the pan. The pie crust often comes in twos, but make sure to buy two. One crust will be the bottom, and the other will be the top of the potpie.

While the pie crusts are frozen, take two of the crusts out of the pie pan. When the crusts are thawed, it will be too difficult to try to take it out of the pan. The pie crusts that are out of the pan will be the top of the pie. Let all of the crusts thaw.

Cook a bag of frozen mixed vegetables. While that is cooking chop into chunks and cook, two to three pieces of the boneless, skinless chicken breast. (I cooked mine in the microwave.)

When the vegetables and chicken are cooked, mix together with two cans of cream of chicken soup. Add a bit of sage and mix.
Cook the bottom part of the pie crust until it begins to turn golden brown. Then divide the mixture between the two pans.
Add the second crust to the top, and poke some holes in the top. There will probably be a little extra dough from the top crust, which we used for a fun design.
Place the pie on a cookie sheet, in case it bubbles over, and place in the oven at around 400 degrees. Cook until the top crust is brown and a little crisp. We cooked one pie that night, and then covered and stuck the other one in the freezer for later. It was delicious!
