Chicken in a Potato Nest

This is a family favorite that is so simple to make, and a great way to use up left over chicken or turkey. I use up my left over gravy when I have it. I have also used instant mashed potatoes when in a hurry, but I prefer the taste of real potato. I found this in a recipe book years ago and modified it to make it quick and easy.

• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

• 3 -4  cups mashed potatoes
• 2 -3  cups chicken, cut into bite size pieces
• 2 (8 ounce) cans  chicken gravy
• 1 (4 ounce) can  sliced mushrooms
• 1⁄2 cup parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Line the inside edges of a 9 inch deep dish pie plate with mashed potatoes, leaving the middle of the pie plate, about a 4-5 inch in diameter, empty.
2. Mix together chicken or turkey, gravy, and mushrooms. Pour in the middle of the pie plate, (in the hole). Sprinkle parmesan cheese over entire dish.
3. Bake at 350 uncovered, about 30 minutes or until bubbly and hot.
