Originally posted September 1, 2017 Charlotte was given a tiny Dixie cup full of dirt in her Sunday school class a few weeks ago. It had flower seeds in it. Both Eric and I thought it was crushed up Oreos at first, and were totally disappointed that we weren’t going to be able to nab some of Charlotte’s Dirt Pudding Cup. So much for that lesson on faith. No matter how much you believe, dirt ain’t gonna taste like Oreos. (Until they come out with a dirt-flavored Oreo. I have no doubt this is in the works, since I’m pretty sure Oreo knows no bounds when it comes to weird flavors. Sherbert Oreo? Watermelon Oreo? Candy Corn Oreo? What is going on? Although we’ve got nothing on Japan. My BFF Sarah just moved there (!!! military) and will get first hand experience with the crazy candy flavors they have.
Also, speaking of weird food things in the Far East, a friend of ours just got back from a visit to South Korea, where he went to a coffee shop. When he walked in, they snapped a picture of him. And then they gave him a latte with his picture in the foam. NO FOR REAL. What?!)
But back to the flower seeds in crushed Oreos. They actually sprouted into a tiny plant! I was so shocked. I’m notorious for killing living things, except my children, who are all 3 miraculously still alive. (Can I get a slow clap.) I’m really enjoying watching the little sprout grow from my station at the kitchen sink. It’s kind of healing. You guys should all plant a seed in a cup today and watch it by your kitchen sink. It’s great.
How to make Chicken Pot Pie with Biscuits
Earlier this week I posted How to Make Ultra Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits, the most tender biscuits in all the land. Today we’re taking it one step further and baking them on top of chicken pot pie filling. As I mention in the recipe, they are amazing, so tender and flaky. They totally make this casserole next level. BUT. Pillsbury biscuits from a can will also work, or you could make Bisquick biscuits. Sometimes you just need to get dinner on the table!
I did a few Instagram stories making this the first time, and my friend Amelia texted me for the recipe.
She somehow was able to put dinner together from this, I’m pretty impressed. Don’t worry the printable is below! This biscuit chicken pot pie is so great. Tender, roasted chicken, creamy white sauce with great flavor, and carrots and peas. Ahh it’s so good. I wish I could eat this for every meal. Oh wait, that’s exactly what I did this week, because this recipe feeds like 100 people so we had leftovers for days. This would be a great meal to bring to a new mom. Or it makes a great back-to-school meal. My kids are obsessed with it! I love when they ask for seconds on dinner. So rare, and definitely a sign of success!
P.S. My birthday is coming up, and we’re thinking of buying this bed that’s on sale. Do you like it? No for real, help a sister out. I’m so so bad at decorating and stuff. (Also, you know you’ve reached Boring Adulthood when the highlight of your 30th birthday is buying furniture.)
