Old Fashioned Chicken Pot Pie

This was something my Grandma Moore used to make and I loved it.  I even remember having it at a Moore campout in Medora. My aunts and mom would get together and make it.  

Old Fashioned Chicken Pot Pie

Ingredients
1 chicken
3-4 potatoes, diced
3 eggs
1/3 cup water
Flour, enough to make a dough
salt
pepper

Directions

Cut up chicken and remove some of the skin.  Put in a large soup kettle.  Cover with water and add 1 tsp. salt and 2 bay leaves.  Boil until tender, not falling off the bone.  30-45 minutes.  Remove chicken from kettle and save the broth.

Meanwhile make noodles:  Beat the eggs and add the water.  Add enough flour to make a very stiff dough.  Divide into 3 pieces.  Roll each piece out to fit the kettle you will use.

Use a deep kettle and layer starting with chicken (must use bones with chicken to hold up noodles).
Then add 1 circle of noodle, some diced potato and seasoning.  Repeat to have 3 layers of noodles.  Cover with the broth and simmer covered for about 1 hour.

When done cut through all thickness of noodles several times and serve in a soup bowl!  And, as you serve it you may want to take out the bones!

Good Luck!
