Week 19: chicken pot pie and unconventional hummus

On Monday night I attempted a sort of chicken pot pie/chicken biscuit pie from this recipe. I say attempted because I added carrots and turnips without reducing the other ingredients (also used the potatoes from the share), and so ended up with a VERY full baking dish of chickeny stew with some tasty biscuits perched on top. This was a hearty meal, but made enough to feed an army... I'll be eating the leftovers for many days to come. In other news, the pastry blender I bought a few weeks ago was a really good decision, especially when it comes to biscuit-making.

Last night I made butternut squash hummus for a pot luck. I finally bought some tahini! Just like the recipe said this was surprisingly hummus-y for not including any chick peas, and I will definitely be making this again. I cooked the garlic in the olive oil for a bit before adding it because I often find raw garlic to be overpowering.

Like much of what I'm cooking these days, these recipes were found on gojee.com
