One of my favorite things to do online is find new recipes to try for my family’s dinner, and when I find a winner I print it out. I used to have a collection of cookbooks, but over time they were replaced by a collection of printouts of my favorite recipes that I keep in a binder and refer to often. These days I can print out very appetizing recipes in color with the Canon PIXMA MG7120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer. Here is a printout of an image of one of my favorite recipes with the Canon PIXMA on white paper, my Individual Chicken Pot Pies recipe:

I made a new recipe for Individual Chicken Pot Pies individually in cocottes for each member. The Chicken Pot Pies taste phenomenal, so I’ll share my recipe so you can print it out for your own recipe binder.
Individual Chicken Pot Pies
Ingredients
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
1/3 cup chopped carrots
1/3 cup chopped celery
1/3 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup flour
2 tbs butter
1/2 tsp rosemary
1/2 thyme
pastry puff dough to top four cocottes or ramekins
Instructions
1. Combine chicken, carrots, celery, onions, chicken broth, flour, butter, and spices into slow cooker and cook on low for about five hours or high for three.
2. Pour chicken pot pie filling into four separate cocottes or ramekins.
3. Cover each cocotte with a pastry puff sheet and pinch sides to close. Create vents with a fork or pre-cut with a cookie cutter.
4. Bake on 350 for 20 minutes (or until pastry puff crusts are a golden brown).
5. Remove from heat, let cool and enjoy!
And of course, I printed it out with the Canon PIXMA MG7120 color photo printer to add to my personal recipe binder (otherwise I won’t remember exactly how I made it), complete with the image of my creation on top so I can find it easily:
The Canon PIXMA MG7120 is made for people who love vibrant color and photos, whether it’s documents, photographs, collages, recipes, anything. It can be quickly printed out from any device, such as your phone, tablet, or camera, with the PIXMA Cloud app (no computer needed). Here it is in action:
I participated in the post on behalf of Canon and Burst Media. Although I was compensated for my time and commitment, all opinions are my own.
I laos love finding new recipes to share with my family. I love how pretty your picture came out.
Yummy your pot pies look so good, and I love the printer!! What a great way to create a cookbook!!!
What a great printer and idea. I love the quality.
What a great way to make a recipe book and those sound so good. Chicken pot pies remind me of childhood.
Oooo… now I really want one 😀
What a great printer. Those pot pies are so cute too.
I would love to make a cookbook like that with all of my Gram’s recipes.
I love the individual pot pies like that. And your pics from the printer look good enough to eat!
That’s such a good idea to do it that way. I might just have to start. Can I use my son’s printer since I bought him this one?
I like to print out recipes too! I have separate folders I use for different types of recipes. I like the binder idea though. I might have to start doing that.
