    List of Ingredients




    2 cups frozen mixed soup vegetables (such as carrots, potatoes, peas, celery, green beans, corn, onions and lima beans)
    1 (10-3/4-ounce) can reduced-fat condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
    8 ounces chopped cooked chicken
    1/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt
    1/3 cup water
    1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
    1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning or ground sage
    1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 (7-1/2-ounce) tube (10) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

    Recipe



    1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

    2. Remove 10 green peas from frozen mixed vegetables. Stir together remaining vegetables, soup, chicken, yogurt, water, thyme, poultry seasoning and garlic powder in medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Cover; keep warm.

    3. Press five biscuits into 3-inch circles. Cut each remaining biscuit into eight wedges. Place two wedges on top of each circle; fold points down to form ears. Roll one wedge into small ball; place in center of each circle to form pig's snout. Use tip of spoon handle to make indents in snout for nostrils. Place 2 reserved green peas on each circle for eyes.

    4. Spoon hot chicken mixture into 5 (10-ounce) custard cups. Place one biscuit "pig" on top of each. Place remaining biscuit wedges around each "pig" on top of chicken mixture, twisting one wedge "tail" for each. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until biscuits are golden.
