chicken pot pie is a fav here - I make my own - but frequently we just get Marie Callenders frozen.
they taste just about as good as home-made sauce/slice/dice/precook/fillings, etc.
not quite as pretty tho . . . my take:

Very pretty. Are they in little ramekins?

Looks nice though. I take them out if the fridge a good hour ahead of using and sprinkle with salt and sugar if they are tasteless. It helps a little bit.

. . . . tomatoes never reside in my fridge . . . my primary source is the garden, which get pushed to the limit . . .
when that fails.... store bought wooden ones.
for Caprese I use a large grained sea salt, & EVOO to drizzle....

Yeah, $10/serving of a delicious Chicken Pot Pie (they also have Turkey and Beef) - I spend well over $10/pound for sliced deli meats. I shared y'alls comments with DH and he sorta agreed with everyone, just go buy it!

One for the challenge, penne alla vodka:
That is the first time we have been to Destin-Fort Walton in many years. We had dinner one night at Louisiana Langnappi. Couple of meals at beach side seafood places. We normally go to Pensacola Beach. We have an RV and they have a wonderful park there. Centrally located.

We ate at Louisiana Lagniappe while we were there, too. I had the Grouper Louisianne and my DH had the Grouper Pontchartrain (one of my favorites from way back when). I spent a lot of time all over the Gulf Coast growing up. One of my best friends lives in Gulf Breeze (just over the bridge from Pcola) and my DH's cousins live in Navarre. I used to go to the clubs in both Panama City and Pcola when I was in my 20s to watch bands on a regular basis, plus of course going out to eat there. I lived in the Destin from 1962-1999. And don't get me started on New Orleans...probably been there at least 50 times for French Quarter Fest, Jazz Fest, and various concerts over the years.

I'm waiting for the recipe... Missus Next Door Neighbor is a HUGE fan of this dish and I've never made it before, so I look forward to your reaction to it. It looks delicious!
I’ll get it posted up tonight sometime. I’ve made this several times, it’s one of our favorites.

Today, I whipped up a delicious spicy shrimp stir-fry! I sautéed fresh shrimp with garlic, ginger, and a mix of bell peppers, then tossed it all in a fiery chili sauce. Served over steamed jasmine rice, it was the perfect blend of heat and flavor.
