Both of these are from my Grandma Louise who is a great cook!  Chicken and Noodles over mashed potatoes is one of my favorites and is easy to make.   My Grandma thought Sugar-Free Double-Layer Pumpkin Pie would be a good one for people who are trying to lose weight or those who can't have sugar.  I prefer the fattening stuff! Chicken and Noodles Cook 3 whole chicken breasts, with skins and bones, in enough water to cover well.  Cook 30 minutes or until tender.
