A Calendar of Yuletide Doings ... COVID Style!
Even if Christmas sees us home alone this year, or with limited family or friends, here are some suggestions from the Meadow Sweet Grove fairy folk to make your season bright! Although 2020 might not allow for as much merry-making as is custom with Yule; you can still experience the magic of Christmas: ...

~ Chicken Cheddar Casserole ~
Picture

This is a wonderfully easy and yummy meal to make for dinner inspired by a soup recipe that I have altered somewhat to turn into a casserole. It uses up left-over cooked chicken and requires few ingredients. Reduce wet ingredients for a "dryer" pasta meal or increase for a "soupy" casserole. Adjust cooking time accordingly. It's all up to you!

What you need:
1/2 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup chopped green onion
2 tablespoons butter
1 to 1/2 cups milk
1 cup chicken broth
1/8 cup flour
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 to 1 cup cooked chicken; shredded, cubed or ground
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups cooked pasta
What you do:

Add the carrot and green onion to melted butter and cook slightly in frying pan. Combine and whisk milk, chicken broth, flour, Worchestershire sauce and pepper in a separate bowl. Add to frying pan. Cook and stir over medium heat under thickened and bubbly. Stir in cooked chicken and 1/2 cheese. Pour over cooked and drained pasta in casserole dish. Cover with remaining cheese.

Bake uncovered at 325° for approximately 1/2 hour.
When I made this meal ... I realized I didn't have any carrots. Then I remembered that I still had some out on the front brick patio (mid-January!) in a suspended iron planter. I had grown some in pots, elevated, away from the slugs which had ravaged our garden this year. Anyway - they were just enough to complete this meal. These winter carrots were lovely, fragrant, crisp and sweet.
You can always scrape a meal together somehow!

Disclaimer:  Many of the items sold are vintage or pre-loved. Quality of vintage items vary with the manufacturing methods available at the time of production. They are not made to current standards of manufacturing ... and in my opinion, that is usually a good thing! They tend to be higher quality, last longer and include more attention to detail than today's products. However, safety standards do change over time, items do deteriorate with age, and it is up to the customer to decide how they will use each product.
