What are the problems? And what are the solutions? I don't get it? :D
Anyway, I've tried to make a chicken pot pie with only mixed chicken and
potatoes. The result, was really good. I really love doing it again. :)
 
FOOD PROCESSOR PIE PASTRY

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter, cut in small pieces, ice cold
4 tablespoons shortening, cut in small pieces, ice cold
2 to 3 tablespoons ice water

In food processor, pulse flour and salt to blend. Add ice cold butter and shortening pieces and pulse about 4 times for 2 seconds each time. The fat should be about the size of peas and lentils. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons ice water as you run the processor, then pulse in small amounts of water until the mixture looks like large crumbs and holds together when squeezed with your hand. Shape it into disk, wrap with plastic wrap, and chill thoroughly.
On floured surface, roll dough into a circle about 1 inch larger in diameter than pie plate. Fit into plate and follow your pie recipe for baking. Makes enough pastry for 1 pie crust.

I will make this one MamaM, I haven't tasted kind of pie. :D
Thanks!
 
I use canned crescent roll dough for my crusts. Unroll them, pinch together at the seams and cut to fit. They have nice texture and a rich flavor.
 
Wow. Remind me to be very careful when picking a "toy store" to get something for the grandkids.
