(More customer reviews)Each week, folks in our neighborhood get together for "Soup Nite". Nothing fancy - Someone brings bread, another salad, another desert etc., good food, good folks, a great time. Soup is our contribution. A few weeks ago we had one of those all-American menues - Cream of Chicken Soup, biscuits, salad & banana cream pie. For kicks I did a little web-surfing for recipes. All roads led straight to this cookbook. Cream of Chicken Soup = the filling from the Chicken Pot Pie recipe plus extras. Banana Cream pie = Coconut Custard Pie recipe sans coconut plus bananas. Results = Absolutely NO left-overs, the couple from England thought they'd died & gone to heaven & many belts had to be loosened a notch or two. Best part = the look of blissful contentment on each and every dinner guest's face. Can't ask for more than that. One other thing, we don't expect to find Chicken-fried Steak with biscuits & gravy as an entree at the superb 4-star restaurant we make a pilgrimage to each year. You'll find that along with burgers, chili & cornbeef hash (but no mention of goat cheese) on the menu at a little place called "The Diner" over on Main St.
