Muffin Pot Pies

I didn't invent this idea but I've certainly made it my own and my family will agree that it should be a staple of our meal plan. In fact, I couldn't post a photo because they were all eaten before I had a chance to snap a photo. This recipe is so simple. All ingredients can be substituted with personal preferences. Use leftover thanksgiving turkey instead of chicken for example. Just about any meat variety paired with the sauce and vegetables of your choice will do. Even the type of noodle used is a matter of preference and if you think the noodles are too heavy, try rice instead or eliminate them all together. Mix together ingredients with a cheese sauce or any variety of cream soup. For a breskfast twist try sausage, eggs and gravy. And don't get me started with all the dessert ideas. Personal pies would make a delicious yet super easy dessert. The combinations of possibilities seem endless.
