Welcome to our Thursday ”Healthy Meals with coupons!”.
We all know that couponing saves you cash, but now what do you do with that stockpile of food? How do you put it together to make a great meal?
Today’s recipe is Mini Chicken Pot Pies prepared by me!
First let me say I usually like to make Pot Pie from scratch but this recipe is great in a pinch!
Ingredients:
- 3 cups frozen Peas & Carrots
- 2 cups cooked cooked chicken
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cans (10 3/4) condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 can Pillsbury crescent rolls
- 1 egg
- 1 Tablespoon water
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Head oven to 400. In a 2-quart saucepan mix peas and carrots, chicken, milk, 1 teaspoon thyme and soup. Heat to boiling over med-high heat, stirring occasionally. Divide mixture evenly between (4) 1/2 cup oven safe crocks (I found mine at a garage sale)!
Unroll crescent dough. Place crescents evenly over each bowl.
In a small bowl, mix egg and water. Brush mixture over crescent dough. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon thyme over dough. Bake 11-13 minutes or until crusts are golden brown.
Cost Breakdown after coupons:
- Chicken: used left over roasted chicken from night before
- Soup: .40 per can
- Veggies: Just under $1.00
- Crescent Rolls: .30
Total cost after coupons I’d have to say probably less then $3.00 including chicken!
