1 large ear of corn, husk and silk removed
4 medium carrots, washed thoroughly
8 white mushrooms, dirt wiped off with a damp paper towel
1 cup frozen peas
1 can Healthy Choice Cream of Mushroom Soup
3 reduced fat biscuits (canned works perfectly)
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp paprika (smoked if you have it)
1/2 cup vegetable broth
Preheat oven to 350F
Place one end of the cob in a bowl and use a sharp knife to carefully slice as close as you can to the cob into the bowl so your kernels go into the bowl and not all over the place
Roughly chop the carrots into pieces a little bigger than the size of the corn kernels
Roughly chop the mushrooms into pieces similar in size to the carrots
Put garlic, carrots, and 1/4 cup vegetable broth in a big sauce pot and sauté over medium high heat until carrots start to soften
Add mushrooms, corn, and more vegetable broth if necessary and sauté
Add peas, thyme and paprika to pot then add cream of mushroom soup
Turn heat down to low, stir and let everything warm thoroughly
Cook biscuits according to package directions
When biscuits are done pull them apart so you have a top and bottom piece
Place 1 1/2 biscuits on each plate and spoon the filling over the biscuits
