Chicken Pot Popovers

Ingredients
Popovers:
Baking spray with flour
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Filling:
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup frozen peas and carrots
1/2 rotisserie chicken, skin discarded and white and dark meat shredded (about 3 cups)
1/4 cup loosely packed flat-leaf parsley, chopped, for garnish

Directions          
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin generously with the baking spray.

For the popovers: Whisk the milk, flour, eggs, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl until combined. Drizzle in the melted butter while whisking until combined; let the batter stand for 5 minutes. Add the baking powder; whisk the batter to combine and divide it evenly among the muffin cups (a scant 1/4 cup batter per muffin cup). Bake the popovers until puffed and browned around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pan about halfway through.

For the filling: While the popovers are baking, put the broth and flour into a medium saucepan and whisk until the flour is dissolved. Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk continuously until the mixture comes to a boil; continue to whisk until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the peas and carrots, then the chicken; cover to keep warm.

To assemble: When the popovers are done, turn them out of the pan, using a small spatula if necessary. Arrange 2 popovers on each of six plates or bowls and top with the chicken filling, dividing evenly among the popovers. Garnish with chopped parsley and sprinkle on the remaining 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan.

It's really cold, How can we prevent sickness?

Image
•      During the winter months we all feel cold and some of us do not tolerate this weather and get sick. •      If this is the way with adult subjects let us imagine how it is difficult for our young children. f WHY CHILDREN ARE MORE PRONE TO GET COLd Children are more often the victims compared to adults, it’s not uncommon for colds to start by six months of age, especially in large family households. There are multiple reasons for this: 1) children under seven years of age have immature immune systems which makes them more susceptible to cold and flu viruses. 2) young children spread more germs to each other because of their tendency to cough and sneeze without covering their mouth. Additionally, they more often contact contaminated surfaces (desks, table tops and toys) and subsequently touch their nose, eyes or mouth facilitating germ transmission. 3) upper airways of young children (including the ears and sur...

Meeting with the Kindergarten Just Became Easier

Image
Departure to the kindergarten represents not only an important period in the process of child development but also a major change in the functioning of the whole family. Although this event is an integral part of almost every child's life, it can often be stressful, as it requires adapting to new circumstances, both to the child and to the parent. How much a departure to kindergarten is a significant event in the child's life, we will realize if we remember that it represents his first true obligation, similar to what Mom and Dad have when preparing for a job every day or when a brother and a sister go to school. Research shows that the adaptation process is sometimes more stressful for parents (especially mothers) than for a child. Such data are understandable because the kindergarten often means the first long separation, but also the modification of the roles that Mom and Dad had by then, which are now largely taken up by educators. When they talk about parents' st...
