Joanie's Crock Pot Chicken Pie

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
1/2 small onion (apx. 1/3 c) cut into cubes
1 c. water
1 c. cooked rice
1/2 c. milk
1 bag Steamfresh frozen mixed veggies (carrots, greenbeans, corn)
Bisquick mixed to the biscuit recipe on the side of the box

Throw the first three ingredients in the pot on high for about 3 or 4 hours, until the chicken starts to pull apart and is cooked thru. Add 1/2 c milk, 2 tbsp flour and 1 c cooked rice. Stir and cover whilst you mix some Bisquick. I follow the recipe on the side of the Bisquick box for "bisquits." Add 1 bag steamfresh frozen mix veggies (I like the steamfresh best because they don't fall all apart while you wait on the rest to cook) to the pot and mix that well. Drop the Bisquick mix onto the top of the chicken mixture and cook until it's done. If you're tight on time, you can take the lid off the pot, and bake the biscuit top in the oven on 350 for 15 minutes. Put the pot on a cookie sheet so if it runs over, or breaks or something you don't get a mess in the oven.

If you want to salt and pepper, do it before you add the biscuit to the top. I like mine salty, but Batman doesn't, so I just put it on after it's cooked, which is also an option. I just think it's really plain without salt and pepper. I also like the chicken to be pulled apart, so I do that with a fork before I add the veggies.

Joanie's Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I probably do it wrong, but I cut the chicken into strips, cook it in some sesame marinade, then chop it in the blender to grind it down a little more. I think it wraps easier that way. I use that lettuce that grows out of the center and looks "leafy" instead of "head" lettuce, like iceberg. I cut the hard bottom stalk part off, wash it, etc. Then, put a little bit of chicken (a couple tablespoons) in the center, add whatever else I want to put in (tonight, it's going to be fried noodles and rice), some extra sauce and wrap it all up tight. I have a really good recipe for this honey/soy/peanut sauce that we do the dipping in. They are delish.
