I am helping host a Baby Shower in a few weeks and we are going to do vol au vents. Does anyone have any easy tried and true filling recipes? I am going to cheat and buy the pastry cases. ------------- Lindsey

i found this one... you could always not put the chicken in
750 grams of Chicken Thigh Fillets, chopped into little cubes 4 Rashers of Bacon, chopped into little bits 12 medium Volauvent shells 250 grams of Philadelphia Cream Cheese, sliced into pieces 50 grams of Butter 2 tablespoons of Plain Flour 3 cups of Full Cream Milk 100 grams of Pine Nuts Salt & Pepper Firstly a splash of olive oil in a fry pan and cook your bacon bits for 2-3Min's, then add your chicken and cook altogether until the chicken is cooked all the way through. Drain the chicken and bacon in a strainer, allow to cool. Next comes the sauce. In a small saucepan, place your milk and bring to a nice warm temperature, keep on a low heat aside. In a second saucepan melt your butter until it starts to sizzle, then add your flour, whisk it in and cook the paste for a good couple of minutes, this will cook out the flour taste. This is imperative for a good bechamel sauce base. Then whisk in your warm milk on a medium heat, you will find it will thicken quite quickly. Once it is thick, add your slices of Cream Cheese, whisk till smooth and luscious. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Then all you have to do is assemble and bake. Mix your sauce through your cooled, cooked chicken and bacon. Taste again for seasoning as it might need some more salt and pepper at this stage. Fill your Volauvent cases and top with the Pine Nuts. Pop them into a preheated oven on 180 degrees for about 15-20 Min's. ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">
