Chicken Pot Pie Ravioli's
Trader Joes recently came out with CPP raviolis and I just couldn't help taking them to the next level--it was a perfect gloomy rain night comfort meal!
Cooked package of ravioli's per instructions reserve 2 T pasta water
Meantime I sauted or you can microwave-- 1 small onion chopped 3 ribs celery and 4 carrots (mine were the multicolor carrots) sliced thin until soft
1 cup of frozen peas added to raviolis during last 2 minutes of cooking
Combine in pan with your sauce , the veggies, the raviolis and reserved pasta water-- ENJOY !!

Béchamel Sauce
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter over medium-low heat until melted. Add the flour and stir until smooth. Over medium heat, cook until the mixture turns a light, golden sandy color, about 6 to 7 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, heat the milk in a separate pan until just about to boil. Add the hot milk to the butter mixture 1 cup at a time, whisking continuously until very smooth. Bring to a boil. Cook 10 minutes, stirring constantly, then remove from heat. Season with salt and set aside until ready to use.
I pretty much did the same thing...guess it's intuitive. Made a bechamel/white sauce, added in sauteed sliced carrots, portobello mushrooms, and carrots along with shredded chicken and of course some herbs/spices...was very tasty.
