Recipes, Finally...

I posted these meals a while ago and I was asked for the recipes.  Things got busy, I kind of forgot so here they are:

The first comes from a dear, old lady at church.  Fern often brings her chicken pot pie for potluck lunches.  It's always the first to go.

This picture is only a half-batch.

Chicken Pot Pie
leftover chicken and good, hot, fairly thick gravy
2 cup flour                                   1/2 tsp salt
4 tsp bk. powder                          1 Tbsp butter
1 cup milk (almond works too)
Make batter and spoon over very hot chicken and gravy.
Bake 400F for 15 minutes


Tomato Sauce 
makes about 9 cups
4 (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
1/4 cup oil                                    3 garlic, crushed
1 cup red wine                              1 Tbsp oregano
1 onion, finely chopped                pinch basil
salt & pepper
Saute onions and garlic in oil.  Add everything else.  Simmer 1 1/2-2 hours to thicken.
I use this sauce for a lot of things, including lasagna.


Spaghetti and Meatballs
1 lb ground beef                                 1 small onion, chopped fine
1/2 cup fine breadcrumbs                   1/2 cup milk (almond is fine)
salt & pepper
Saute onions.  Add everything else and make into balls (I make appetizer sized ones).  Drop into spaghetti sauce (above or store-bought) and simmer for 1 hour.
