Today's Recipes: Three Super Easy Recipes!

I've been out and down with a very bad cold but I did still cook at night so I thought I would share the recipes I cooked when I was bearly moving... very easy recipes!

Oh So easy Chicken Pot Pie
You can leave the meat out and double the veggies

1 package of 2 frozen Deep Dish Pie Shells
1 big can of canned white meat chicken (by the canned tuna or you can use leftover chicken or turkey)
1 can of cream of chicken soup (or your favorite cream of anything)
1 can of mixed vegetables or veg-all
salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 350.  Mix chicken, soup and veggies together.  Pour the mixture in one pie shell and take the second pie shell and cover the mixture.  No worries if it is messy, it eats great!  I take some of the crust off the second pie shell.

Cook for about 45mins to 1 hour until the edges start to brown.

Pork In the Pot

1 pork tenderloin
1/2 jar of apricot jam or orange - whatever you got on hand
3 tablespoons of cider vinegar
1 c of chicken stock, or any stock or water or apple cidar or orange juice - any liquid

Throw everything in the crockpot and cook on Low for 4-6 hours or the lowest amount of time on your crockpot.  Serve over rice.

Shrimp and Tomatoes

1 lb shrimp
2 cans of tomatoes with garlic, and spices (there are several different kinds - use what you have on hand)
2 Tablespoons of butter
2 tsp of garlic
feta cheese
orzo pasta or rice

Cook orzo or rice.
Add butter to a skillet on med-high and add about a Tablespoon of olive oil to butter.  Once it melts, add garlic stir for about a minute.  Add shrimp and cook for about 3 mins.  Add tomatoes.  Cook this until warm throughout.  Add spices to it if needed, salt, etc.
Pour mixture over orzo and cover with feta and any green herb you have on hand or nothing.... it is easy
