I discovered your site through a mutual friend. On Monday, I made the chicken soup recipe and my family loved it! I also attempted your chicken pot pie. It was good, except that I made the insides too thick. I'll have to try again soon. I look forward to cooking other recipes from this site. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
