BANQUET CHICKEN POT PIE


Some Foods bring us back yet stay with us for life. I grew up on a diet of Swanson Chicken Pot Pie and the Banquet brand is very closely identical, Swanson Pot Pie's seem absent at my Supermarket and these were on sale for 99 cents a pop. 

Piping Hot so give her five minutes to cool down and also create a chimney (see photo above) to induce heat reduction. As a child I used to dip Bread & Butter into the Gravy to Sop up the excess. My only critique is that it is over all too fast, once you start going you are on the last Bite, better make 2 or 3 then. Still Delicious and who does not like a Pot Pie ?


I am tempted to try the Fruit Pies but how can I when I can have a Chicken or Turkey Pot Pie, also possibly my Favorite, The Beef Pot Pie which has also become scarce.


The Microwave is for Leftovers stored in Tupperware, I will always go the Conventional Oven route.

BANQUET DINNERS (Frozen)


These Pot Pies are Always quite good, maybe a step under Swanson's brand but my local Walbdbaum's supermarket does not see to carry the Swanson Pot Pies. Over in maybe 6 or 7 bites. I miss the Hungry Man Pot Pies of yore but we are speaking on the Frozen Food plain.


In all her glory with Chicken Gravy evident.


1/16/14 - Banquet Turkey Meal


This is kind of Not Good, Taters and Peas are OK but even after adding a decent amount of "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" Margarine/Butter it still was not saved. The turkey is two slices of maybe some kind of Turkey Roll and I need a knife to cut through it (I do not know if this is good or bad). There is Stuffing included under the Turkey and Gravy but not much of it (maybe one tablespoon) and it is addressed as "Dressing" on the outer packaging, OK I suppose they are technically right. 

I will stick to the Meatloaf/Salisbury Steak Dinners from now on in.
