We met Susanne via twitter.  We were very inspired by her story. Susanne is a Singer-Songwriter-Folk Musician.  Susanne released her first album in March 2013 after surviving advanced breast cancer. If you have not had a chance to hear one of her songs, here is a one of her videos on Youtube.  Her song is called "Susanne Ericsson Both sides of the story".  



Below is a Creamy Chicken Pie recipe. This recipe is one of Susannes favorite recipes.  Susanne said the creamy chicken pie recipe goes back to the eighties. 

We had a fun time making the recipe.  We love the ingredients leek, mushrooms and grilled chicken.  Plus, who does not love a good pie? We hope you enjoy the recipe too. SMAKLIG MÅLTID! (BON APPETITE!)
