  1. Do you have a recipe for the poultry seasoning? This looks delicious.

    I can’t wait to can up this goodness in a jar. Thank you so much

  4. You added onions in the recipe, however there is no onion listed in the recipe. How much was called for–as a new canner (to both pressure and waterbath) I’ve heard that onion can affect the process due to the low acidity in the onions.

  5. Mrs. Leisa where did you get your wisk??

    Same question as Rachel asked. Can you add onions to the recipe?

  8. Re: Onion. In her video at the top of this page, “Change the Way You Store Chicken Pot Pie Forever”; video marker @2:05. She preps, dices, & put in her pot, ONE (1) medium-to-large white onion.
    I think she just forgot to include the onion in her recipe.
    Hey Leisa, keep the good recipes coming!. I am learning so much from you. Please put out more small batch, pressure canning, Meals In A Jar. Thank you.
