- This is a flavor of my childhood the warm smells of pie cooking in the kitchen. Makes my mouth water and heart warm to the memories. This is a simple version to my moms pressure cooker chicken and garden grown ingredients. Not to mention from scratch crust. But its still a crowd pleaser in the kitchen.
- 1 whole rotisserie chicken skinned and deboned – chopped
- 1 red pepper chopped
- 1 small onion chopped
- 2 stalks celery chopped
- 2 carrots chopped
- I cup frozen peas.
- 1 clove garlic finely chopped
- Tbs olive oil
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Two boxed pie crust for time or scratch recipe
I large pan sauté veggies w oil until past wilt and starting to caramelize. Add chopped chicken and combine with spices and pepper. 
Once hot cover with flour and combine all.
Add broth slowly creating a gravy/rue. Salt to taste.add frozen peas to cool a bit and not over cook peas. 
Makes two standard pies or one deep dish.
Cover pie dish with 1 crust add hot filling then cover with top crust. Try to roll under crust. Filling will expand a bit in cooking and bubble over sides. Slice vents on pie top. Bake 375 for 45 min on a cookie sheet to catch drippings.
Enjoy hot and watch them lick the plates!

I was raised on a large farm in a small community of Long Shop, Virginia. Just a stones throw from Blacksburg, Va and a short drive to the WV boarder. I grew up appreciating Appalachia cooking with low budgets and home grown veggies. What honestly tastes better than a warm tomato out of the garden sliced fat with salt and pepper? Maybe a bowl of good brown pinto beans and cornbread. Or even better grilled trout fresh caught from the creek!
My childhood was a dream... and what has made my passion for food- sharing good meals with good friends and loved ones.
My food always has a story and always in sizes to share.
I now have begun a new adventure with my love Jason, and we created the Bellman and Concierge LLC and reopened the beautiful Oaks Victorian Inn. A childhood home I knew well growing up and now saving for many to enjoy as a Boutique Bed and Breakfast. Cooking for guests and sharing traditions. Come visit us at
