Creamy Chicken Hotpot

This is such a delicious warming wintery dinner in my opinion. I made it today and it was nearly all eaten, only a little bit left. 400g potatoes (i used sweet potato) 400g chicken diced 250g mushrooms sliced (i cut these really small so the master fairy wouldnt know they were in it) 150g frozen peas 400g reduced fat chicken soup (or any chicken soup you want) seasoning put the oven on at 190 degrees (170 if fan assisted) 1.cook the potatoes till they are tender and slice (we prefer mash so i mashed ours) 2. brown the chicken - set to the side 3. saute the mushrooms 4. combine the chicken, mushrooms and peas in a large deep pie dish ( i used a casserole dish) 5. add the soup and cover with the potatoes ( I also added a tiny bit of grated cheese on top of ours 6. pace in the oven and bake for 45 minutes or until crisp and brown. enjoy xx the points for this meal is 8 points per serving x
