For Mushroom Lovers ...

Being in a fall-ish sort of mood, today, after decorating this weekend, I wanted to make a sort of casserole to last for a few days, but I was tired of the usual chicken-broccoli-rice stuff, so instead, I made THIS today ...

It's a southern twist on a pot pie -  mushroom pot pie with drop biscuits!

I looked up 3 different recipes for it, but cherry-picked the ingredients I liked, and in the end, I chose cheddar and chive biscuits, with a filling of mushrooms, celery, carrots, peas, and onions, seasoned with a little garlic and thyme (plus the vegetable stock, milk, and flour gravy).

You could probably add chicken, if you like, but a warning - one biscuit is enough, it's super filling!

I highly recommend, perfect for fall weather ... SO good!

PS - So though this tasted delicious, I used regular button/bella mushrooms, instead of cremini mushrooms, because they were cheaper.

I sauteed then stewed them for a long time, but still, about an hour later, both of us felt slightly nauseous and there was mushroom brash, is the most appropriate way to say it - so I think the mushrooms may have been bad?

Lesson learned - never skimp on mushrooms - always go for the good stuff, the higher quality mushrooms like cremini or shitake for these recipes, and make sure not even one of them looks iffy - it's worth the added cost!
