Individual Chicken Pot Pie
This really only takes about 45 minutes to make…even less if you use rotisserie chicken instead of cooking the chicken along with this.

Someone Must Be Sick Soup
When my kids were young, I’d come home from work and sometimes my mother in law would be there…making this soup.

Chicken Parm (AB Style)

Steak, Berries, & Walnut Salad
So…I went to a restaurant and ordered this salad…but I didn’t get this salad…I got wilted lettuce, overdone shoe leather steak, no berries, the wrong kind of dressing, and no walnuts. So…I went home and made it myself the next day just to get the LOUSY taste out of my mouth from the night before….
