CREAMY CHICKEN AND BISCUITS

I have thousands of pins on my Pinterest account that I keep meaning to "get to" so I decided this recipe would be a good place to start (and it was)! 

This is a pin for Creamy Chicken and Biscuits from The Merchant Baker. I did not use her biscuit recipe because I have a favorite from Taste of Home that I really like. I also used mixed vegetables instead of the peas and carrots (it's the only way I can "sneak" lima beans into a meal around here! 😊).
I made the chicken mixture first and then mixed up my biscuits while the chicken simmered on low; so the biscuits were fresh out of the oven and the chicken and veggies were piping hot.  This recipe is wonderful and so easy to make - perfect for a cold winter evening. 


 Happy Cooking!

BAKING CHEF

(crochet)



This sweet little Baker's Set fits an 18 inch doll.  The pattern can be found at redheart.com and includes a pattern for the chef hat, apron, mixing bowl, oven mitts, birthday cake, and cherry pie.  


I used Red Heart Super Saver yarn in the following colors: pretty n pink, soft white, minty, bright yellow, cherry red, buff, and gray.  
I think I'll make a couple more pies; perhaps a "peach" pie and a "blue"berry pie.  Another bowl or two would be nice also...

Here's a close-up of the birthday cake.




Here's one final picture of my little baker; she has just taken a fresh baked cherry pie from the oven!  (Love those little oven mitts 😊)


Have a blessed day and Happy Crocheting!
