Had cooked chicken breasts in the instant pot a few days ago. Had chicken tacos with shredded chicken, corn tortillas, a little cheese and home made salsa.

I'm making baked chicken potpie from some of the rotisserie chicken
What do you use for the crusts?
Have you ever tried puff pastry? Those make good chicken pot pies, too.

I love a good chicken pot pie. I just make my pie crust recipe. Flour, Crisco, salt, a splash of oil and milk.
I had to throw dinner together quickly this morning because my assistant called in sick. Meant I had to work till 6:30, and husband and grandson needed to eat by 6 to go to Boy Scouts. So I threw frozen stew meat, beef broth, seasoning, and dehydrated mixed veggies in the crockpot. Had a loaf of French bread, and made a salad. So they had food and I just finished mine.

Cake and ice cream. I know, I know but I have the house to myself tonight!
Monday boneless porkchops were on sale at the market. This morning I browned a couple chops in a cast iron skillet. I cut up a whole sweet onion and tossed both in the crock pot. I added half a can of cream of celery soup and a whole can of cream of mushroom soup. I had half a package of shiitake mushrooms that needed to be used so I chopped up those and tossed them in the crock.
Can't wait to find out how this turns out. I plan to make some rice in a while to be smothered by the chops.

Tossed couple of frozen chicken breast in crockpot.
Along with carrot, celery leaves and all, onion to make up broth.
Seasonings were salt, pepper, bay leaf crunched, red pepper flakes.
Later skimmed off blood and fat, made noodles.
Will be making mashed garlic, parsley potatoes to go with chicken and noodles.
Yummy!

For desert/treat, a concoction my wife made: saltines, brown sugar, butter...cook to make a toffee...then spread chocolate on top. She likes to spread the chocolate on thick; I like a little dollup on a toffee cracker

I thawed out the rotisserie chicken carcass yesterday and I have it in the crockpot right now.
I'm making some good old chicken soup for this snowy cold day.
I'm making enough broth to save some back for another day's meal
