Savory Monkey Bread

This one is a favorite to bring to pot lucks! It won a homemade bread contest at church once! I was impressed given that I was competing with a bunch of elderly women who had probably spent all day working hard on their "real" bread and fighting with yeast etc. You can alter the ingredients- add more things or take out things you don't like!

4 cans of 10 pack biscuits (the small kind)- quarter them with scissors
2 Sticks of butter
1/2 pound fried bacon -crumbled
3/4 cup red pepper-chopped
3/4 cup green pepper-chopped
3/4 cup vidalia onion-chopped
1/2 cup shredded cheddar

Mix all ingredients in a bowl with a wooden spoon (the mixture wont stick to the wood)
Dump it all in a bundt pan and bake till done. Should be about 30 minutes @ 350

Creamy Chicken Pot Pie (No peas or Carrots 😳)

Creamy Chicken Pot Pie *Makes 1-3 Pies* I love a good chicken pot pie. Traditionally they aren’t particularly creamy and they usually involve a bag of frozen peas & carrot mix. However, Julie doesn’t eat either so I subbed the two veggies she does eat - green beans and corn. You can use fresh or frozen veggies. I used the the steamer bags that came with garlic butter in the bag and I used fresh local corn cobs, boiled with kernels cut. They are crisp and sweet! I added cream and cream cheese to the filling to make it extra savory for my picky eaters! I usually make & bake 1 pie, and freeze the rest of the filling for another day in a freezer bag Ingredients: (1) Rotisserie chicken picked and chopped. Place in large bowl. (1) bag green bean steamer bag w seasoning - cooked and chopped (1) bag little potatoes steamer bag w seasoning cooked and chopped (1) Vidalia onion chopped (1) yellow bell pepper chopped (2) stalks celery chopped (2) cloves garlic chopped (1) Handful fresh pou...
