Pie Crust

When Jami gave me the Chicken Pot Pie recipe that she posted I didn't have a recipe for pie crusts. Since you all are better cooks then I, you probably don't need this but I thought I would post it anyways. This is the recipe Jami gave me and I use for the pie crust when I make the previously posted Chicken Pot Pie. Since I made Chicken Pot Pie tonight I thought I would post this.

Chicken Pot Pie Crust
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 cup shortening
6-7 Tbls. ice water

Cut shortening into flour and salt until it looks like corn meal. Add all the water and mix until moist. Divide into 2 balls then roll out.

Note: Jami told me that if you put the ball of dough in the fridge for a little while before actually rolling it out it works better.
