When the winter winds blow and bite, it’s time for a warm, stick-to-your-ribs dinner. I love stews, pot roasts, and all kinds of meals like that during cold winter days. Today’s Foodie Friday recipe is a variation on a pot pie. Filling is basically the same but instead of pie crusts, the recipe is easier by just topping the filling with biscuits. I’m all in favor of making life easier and still having a tasty supper. I hope you enjoy the recipe below! P.S.
