SO very good and all of the grain eaters in the family (including 3 teens!) asked for this to go on the regular rotation!

Had used the bones to make broth and was going to make soup from it but remembered seeing this recipe and had always loved pot pie. Of course, with my luck, I didn't have a 3 qt. casserole but I used a 4.5 qt. I had. It looked a little dumb;p But it was delish anyway - Hubby had two helpings. I used some Bell's Poultry Seasoning in the filling cuz we both love it.

I bet you are right -- some gelatin would probably thicken up the cranberry sauce -- and depending on how much you add, you could have the "jellied" kind, too! What a great idea mixing some in with pears and pecans...and said in the faintest of whisper! ;-) It sounds really good though -- and yes you are becoming brave...and that's a good thing! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-21652690996565062942013-10-21T20:55:47.745-04:002013-10-21T20:55:47.745-04:00Hi GGC,

Didn't do much to thicken the sauce, though. (I agree with your comment that this recipe would be delicious as a creamy chicken soup!) Next time I will be less "chicken" (hee hee) with the xanthan and/or try the cream cheese.<br /><br />We had the cranberry sauce hot from the stove the first day. I'd simmered it down pretty well, but there was still a little puddle of liquid. It did thicken up a bit more after sitting at room temp and especially after chilling in the fridge. The texture reminded me of how it looked when I used to make it with sugar. The flavor isn't "quite" the same as when made with sugar, but pretty darn close. Perhaps it could be tweaked with a couple of drops of stevia, although we thought it was good as is.<br /><br />I'll bet adding a little gelatin powder during cooking would take care of that little puddle. I have some Great Lakes Kosher gelatin but didn't think about it until just this minute. Next time I'll try it ... if I don't forget, that is! :-)<br /><br />BTW, I had a little poached spiced pears in the fridge(they were diced into smallish chunks) that I'd made the day before. I added a little leftover cranberry sauce plus a few pecan pieces to it a couple of days later. The combo was yummy! See how *brave* I'm getting!<br /><br />PS: Don't tell anyone, but I put a dollop of sour cream on top, too!CyberSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785005260630246224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-18613285458147630102013-10-21T17:53:35.800-04:002013-10-21T17:53:35.800-04:00Hi CyberSis! Glad you enjoyed the chicken pot pie ...Hi CyberSis! Glad you enjoyed the chicken pot pie -- and freezing that crust takes the "fear factor" out of transferring the crust. I want to make individual pot pies in ramekins next time to see how that turns out -- I think it would make pretty servings having your own "casserole". I was going to give cranberry sauce a shot this year, too -- I really like it and that's the one thing I didn't try to make last Thanksgiving. Did it thicken at all as it cooled? P.S. - next time you make the pot pie filling, if you are still uncertain about thickening and don't want to add more xanthum...add a bit of cream cheese to it to make it "creamier" and less soupy. I have used 1 teaspoon and 3/4 teaspoon and both worked out great -- I may toss in a bit of cream cheese next time along with the 3/4 tsp to see how that tastes -- others have told me it works fine though. Great way to use the leftover crust making crackers, too! I've been wanting to make cheese straws (my hubby's favorite) and the dough recipe here is pretty close (except for the dash of cayenne). :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-89439348036348429362013-10-21T16:14:06.106-04:002013-10-21T16:14:06.106-04:00Hi CCG,

I'd rolled it a little larger than the dish and had no trouble cutting it to size or transferring it. (I used the scraps to make tasty crackers while the pie baked.) I didn't thicken the sauce quite enough with the xanthan gum, though. Having had a couple of previous mishaps with it, I used it *very* sparingly. No matter, though, it was still great and the crust was high enough above the sauce that it didn't get soggy at all.<br /><br />I also made cranberry sauce using Swerve. I followed the directions on the bag of berries except for putting in slightly less Swerve than the amount of sugar it called for. It was very good ... even my hubby said so! :-)CyberSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785005260630246224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-25965889211510988022013-10-19T21:12:40.024-04:002013-10-19T21:12:40.024-04:00Oh my, this has got to be the best chicken pot pie...Oh my, this has got to be the best chicken pot pie ever!
