CHICKEN POT PIE BAKED POTATO

I assume I’ve admitted on here a few instances that I’m a carb-o-holic. yes, it’s proper. there's simply something that starchy goodness does to me. haha. I could in no way do one of these low carb diets because it simply wouldn’t final for greater than an hour. I need bread in my life and i need potatoes! 

Baked potatoes are one of my favorites. I’ll take them anyway i will. in particular in the event that they’re protected in bird POT PIE SAUCE! Oh my goodness, yes. those potatoes are extraordinary you guys. i found the recipe over at Mel’s Kitchen Cafe ( I simply adore her and her tremendous recipes) and i just knew I had to make these asap. So I did, and actually sang as I ate.

This sauce comes collectively without difficulty and is really scrumptious. It’s creamy, flavorful and loaded with chicken and greens. #yum that is an ideal recipe to make for a yummy Sunday dinner or if you have a bit extra time. The potatoes need to bake for an hour and the recipe requires cooked fowl so plan earlier! A rotisserie chicken could honestly paintings wonders in this. next time I make it that’s what i am going to attempt.
