A quart jar layered with freeze-dried chicken, vegetables and gravy mix that turns into a filling for one pie. Handy for the pantry or as a gift.

Ingredients

Per jar

  • 1 tsp. minced garlic
  • 1 tsp. Thrive Chef's Choice
  • 1/4 c. Thrive Velouté (Rich Chicken Gravy)
  • 1/4 c. Thrive Chopped Onions
  • 1/3 c. Thrive Celery
  • 1/3 c. Thrive Green Peas
  • 2/3 c. Thrive Sweet Corn
  • 1 c. Thrive Diced Potatoes
  • 1 c. Thrive Chopped Chicken

Directions

  • Put the ingredients into a quart jar in the order listed for neat layers (use the reverse order for generous servings).

Notes

To make the pie: bring 3 1/2 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir in the jar contents thoroughly and cook 10-12 minutes until the potatoes are soft. Spoon into a pie crust in a pie pan, top with a second crust, cut small vent slits. Bake at 350 degrees about 20 minutes until golden brown.
Safety: freeze-dried chicken can go rancid; shelf jars need oxygen absorbers.
