This is not difficult or greatly time consuming and comfort is certainly the key word. It really tastes like a cross between a pot pie and Shepard’s Pie, whats not to love about that?
MAKES: 6 servings
INGREDIENTS:
2 lbs russet potatoes
milk and butter as needed to mash the potatoes
1/2 cup butter
8 ounces fresh button mushrooms, sliced
1/2 a leek, sliced 1/4 inch thick (not the dark green top)
1/2 cup thinly cut carrot
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup flour
3 cups chicken stock
2 cups milk
3 cups cooked chicken meat
1/4 cup frozen green beans
1/4 cup frozen green peas
1/4 cup frozen corn kernel’s
salt and pepper, to taste
DIRECTIONS:
- Peel and chop the potatoes into 1 inch cubes.
- Boil the cubes until tender and mashable.
WHILE THE POTATOES ARE COOKING:
- Melt butter in a large soup pot and add mushrooms, leek and carrot.
- Saute until softened and garlic and cook for another min.
- Sprinkle flour over veggies then stir and cook several minutes until flour is lightly browned.

I spend a lot of time on my feet and some years back the doctor strongly suggested that I wear support (or compression) stockings for comfort and to help keep my legs healthy. I have found them to really be beneficial. A friend who had abdominal surgery a year ago had support stockings put on in the hospital before the surgery to help prevent blood clots from forming in his legs. That reinforced my belief in their use.
I found http://www.discountsurgical.com/brands/jobst.asp online and was very pleased with their selection and pricing and wanted to let you know about them. They even have ultra sheers that can be worn for a high fashion evening out with your prettiest dresses!. Things sure have changed from the days when they looked like heavy duty protection wear.
Many styles are also available for men’s support for as low as $16.63
“You can benefit from Jobst compression hosiery whether you suffer from tired aching legs because you spend too much time standing or sitting, or suffer from more serious problems like swelling and venous disease.
