In a perfect world I would eat seasonally keeping with what’s coming out of the garden at the time but realistically, that’s just not going to happen. In this country, in this time of history, we are spoiled with refrigeration, we can light our world at any time of day or night and we can make chicken pot pies without going out back to kill the chicken, pick the veggies from the garden or make butter from whole, raw milk given that morning.

I think this recipe feels a little more like a fall meal than a Spring one but I was considering more of what can I make myself to take for my lunches this week at work based on what I had in the freezer. This was p.e.r.f.e.c.t.

They were individual.

They were just the right size for a single serving.

They included satisfying flaky pastry crust with chicken and veggies.

They were also beautiful and delicious.

They would be easy enough to make in small glass jars that you can put lids on but I just covered mine with some wrap and took it to work that way.

Serves 4 or covers your lunches for 4 days.
