Canned Peas & Carrots

Can of Cream of Chicken Soup

Pack of 2 frozen pie crusts

McCormick Montreal Chicken Seasoning[/vc_message][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Cut chicken into pieces and fry (in butter or oil) over medium heat.  While chicken cooks, add a dash or two of the chicken seasoning.  Cook until chicken is no longer pink (about 10 minutes).

 

Add can of Cream of Chicken Soup directly to the pan of chicken.  Stir well.  Add another dash or two of the seasoning.

 

In one of the pie crusts, add the can of peas and carrots.  (Don’t forget to drain all the water out of the can first.)

 

On top of vegetables, add the chicken and soup mixture.  Top pie crust with the other pie crust from your package.  Cut slits in top pie crust.  (I like to do an “X” shape.)

 

Bake at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes or until pie crust is brown and crispy.  Serve and enjoy![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”874″ alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”873″ alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”872″ alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”871″ alignment=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

Posted on by russellmccarter

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus your own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
