Chicken Sweet Potato Pie (microwave version)

I wanted to include this microwave version, which I have never made, before including my revised version – I have a very limited diet, for various reasons, so I revised it (Maybeth’s Chicken Sweet Potato Pie) to suit me and my husband. The microwave version comes from a microwave cookbook.

Difficulty: Easy

Servings: 1 (9 in) pie plate

Prep Time: 10 min   Cook Time: 14-19 1/2 min  

Ingredients

1/2 cup chopped onion
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen mixed vegetables
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can cream of mushroom soup
2 cups diced, cooked chicken
1 (4 oz.) can sliced mushrooms, drained
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 (18 oz.) can vacuum packed sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon allspice

Directions

1. Combine onion and frozen mixed vegetables in 2-quart casserole. Cook, covered, on Full Power for 7 to 9 minutes, or until onion is tender and vegetables are done. Stir in soup, chicken, mushrooms, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.

2. Combine sweet potatoes, melted butter, egg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and spices in mixing bowl. Mash. Line 9-inch pie plate with potato mixture, building up edges 1/2-inch higher than plate.

3. Spoon chicken mixture into sweet potato crust. Cover with heavy-duty plastic wrap. Heat, covered, on Full Power for 7 to 10 1/2 minutes, or until heated through.
