Calling All Wine Corks!

Savvy Cooking Recipe of the Week

Over Columbus Day weekend our daughters and grandkids were here visiting us; the weather was cold and wet and it was the perfect time for comfort food.  And in our house nothing says comfort like Allison's Chicken Pot Pie. It's rich, hearty, creamy and, best of all, a snap to make.  Plus if you make two of them at one time, you can freeze the extra for another cold, rainy day!  Here's the link to the recipe...enjoy!

 

Allison's Chicken Pot Pie.

 
And, because a really nice comfort meal needs some comfort wine to go along with it, here are the wines we know are a perfect match with this dish:

Cupcake Vineyards Chardonnay, 2008, California (Central Coast) $11.99/bottle
Bonterra Vineyards Organic Chardonnay, 2008 California (Mendocino) $12.99/bottle
Hanging Vine Pinot Noir Parcel 22, 2008, California (Central Coast) $14.99/bottle
