I still have leftover CPP in my freezer from a while back, plus, we were prepping for a trip we took this weekend. So I didn’t get in on this one. It was fun watching y’alls cooks!

I liked this, I made a basic pp from some turkey that needed to be used. Was good, and I ate the last of it for breakfast yesterday. Dog liked it too
Mine was pretty basic, using some dishware and techniques from my mom, which was fun and sentimental. I think we should continue this! Doesn't have to be fancy, we all saw that some did rock star crust designs, and some did basic food for dinner. I don't want to step on SheilaAnn's toes, this was a great idea, but where from here? Should we look at basic classic foods, and do our own riff, or do a standard recipe like the PP? So, hmm, quiche, lasagna, certain desserts, chicken and dumplings? Basic stuff we all grew up on, or should we branch out? Julia's Beef Bourguignon, shrimp and grits?, Needs to be stuff we can all access, sure I can go to the Asian market and get chicken feet, but most prob cannot. Can we keep this going?

The first post in this thread was Jan 22. Now on Feb 3, at 6 pages and 78 posts, plus many comments. @SheilaAnn's shebang obviously has legs.
I like @acorgihouse's remarks above. We can all provide input to SA, and await her next directive. Once a month seems about right. She could mix it up a bit: sometimes a recipe, sometimes an ingredient, or region or country.
If only she had some cookbooks to draw from!Comment

Well, that looked like a good bit of fun. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to play this time as I’m nowhere near a kitchen presently…let alone my own. Regardless, I look forward to the next one…even if I get pulled away for that one as well.Comment

Our benevolent dictatrix may want to consider French onion soup.Comment

Well I have 4 quarts of chili left still, and about a pint of beans, a couple avocados that needed to be used today but will still probably be okay tomorrow, and Mrs Mosca wanted me to make something with a rotisserary* chicken.
So I used half a Sam’s Club chicken on chicken/mushroom/artichoke/black olive pesto pasta, and I have another half chicken that I could probably make into a pot pie sometime this week. So, maybe?Comment

We finally reheated the leftover CCP from a while back that has been in my freezer. While this was not the recipe that was given, here is a picture of it just because!Attached FilesLast edited by J-Melt; February 4, 2025, 07:20 PM.Comment

Did the challenge.
We did a bottom and top crust.
Also used a bag of frozen stir veggies and a bag of roasted corn.
Delicious!Attached FilesComment

Alright, I'm a bit late but was early before. This chicken pot pie was absolutely delicious. My wife normally makes it for me during the work week so I treaded lightly. She loved it and was a plus, she didn't have to cook, lol. Jules doesn't really enjoy cooking as it's kinda my thing, like grocery shopping.
Anyways, the dish was DELICIOUS. Filling was a tad thin but very tasty. I used puff pastry which was a first. Top notch. We managed about 3 servings out of it. Will definitely be making this again!

It's a real treat when someone cooks one of my recipes (or close to it) for me. (It doesn't happen very often.) That's when I get to see what it really tastes like without "cook anxiety", as in: did I forget to add the salt (or whatever)? So I can get behind your wife's appreciation for your CPP efforts.
