Slippery Pot Pie See Beef for recipe to adapt for using chicken

Chicken Bot Boi 1 boiling chicken (I use a couple packages of wings) 1 carrot, sliced 1 large onion, quartered salt and pepper to taste Bot Boi Noodles Boil all together in enough water to make a good broth.  Cool chicken, remove meat, and return to broth.  Add Bot Boi noodles, cook thru.  This will absorb most of the broth.  This is then served over mashed potatoes. We used to find Bot Boi Noodles at the supermarket, but they are no longer there.  Grandma Hogue made her own noodle recipe, but the noodles were cut in squares.  Now I can only use wide noodles from a package. The note below is from Jim Kautz You can buy and order the Bot Boi noodles from Heini's Cheese House in Holmes County, Ohio in the Amish area.  I buy them from there.  I noticed on the Bot Boi recipes, that the author said she could not find the noodles.  I bought some yesterday. You have a great web site. Lois Crissman
