Paula Deen's Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

I came across this recipe while researching the food network's site for another recipe. I am really picky about pot pie, and this one sounded like one I wouldn't mind.

The crust was probably the best I've ever eaten! Sooo buttery! However, next time I will probably just use carrots, substitute potatoes and maybe peas. I didn't like the green beans
.
I knew that the bake time would leave me with very undercooked carrots, so I boiled them with the green beans for a while. They turned out nice and tender.

2 cups poached chicken breast, diced
2 hard boiled eggs, sliced
1/2 cup chopped baby carrots
1/2 cup frozen green beans or peas
1 small can cream of chicken soup
1 cup chicken broth (I used the chicken poaching liquid)
garlic powder, marjoram and salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups baking mix
1 cup milk
1/4 cup melted butter

Preheat oven to 350°.
In a 2 quart baking dish sprayed with cooking spray, layer chicken, eggs, carrots and green beans.
In a medium bowl, mix the soup, chicken broth and any seasonings you might like. Pour over the layers.
In a medium bowl, mix baking mix and milk, and pour over the top. Drizzle with butter.

Bake til the crust is golden brown, about 45 minutes.http://media-files.gather.com/images/d826/d332/d746/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg

~Big Al's~ Subs

Image
 I was inspired by this article from my sister Rob, who explains who Big Al is and what he has meant to legions of hungry people in a small town: http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.jsp?articleId=281474977272353&nav=Namespace What makes Big Al's subs better than any others that I have tried are the buns. He uses the same dough recipe as he does for the pizza. This is what I have tried to recreate here. I also made the sub sauce, which is near world famous. I don't think anyone who orders a sub from Big Al's does not also get a side of the sauce. (Well, other than me, but Matt likes it, so of course I had to make it). This is my version of the Big Al's Special complete with sub sauce. Homemade Sub Buns (recipe follows) Capicola Genoa Salami Provolone Cheese Lettuce, tomato and onion Pepperoncini (optional. They aren't authentic to an Al's) Al's Sub Sauce (recipe follows) Homemade Sub Buns I use this pizza dough recipe, which I really like:
