Recipe: Chicken Pot Pie

I made this recipe tonight and it really hit the spot. It's freezing outside and this warmed us all up quick, not to mention that it made the house smell duhlicious! It's not too unlike the Chicken Pie recipe I listed before, except this one includes veggies and does not need pie crusts. So that saves me an extra item on my shopping list. I've made this one before, but we gobbled it so fast tonight that I couldn't help but share it. We just love it.

Chicken Pot Pie
(compliments of Heather)

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
2 cans Veg-All mixed vegetables, drained
3 stalks of celery, cut up into tiny pieces - I skipped this :0
1 can cream of mushroom or 1 1/2 cans cream of chicken
(I used the cream of chicken, as Heather recommends)
1 cup of chicken broth

Mix all ingredients and put in buttered 9 X 13 pan.

Topping:
1 cup milk, 1 cup self-rising flour, 1 stick melted margarine

Mix topping and pour over chicken mixture.
Bake at 400 for 20 minutes. Reduce to 350 for 30 minutes.

Hot, hearty, and healthy! And like I said before - DUH-LISH!

Thanks for the recipe! Chicken (or turkey) pot pie was something we really enjoyed when we lived in the States, but I haven't made it in SO long because I couldn't find either pie crusts or any form of "bisquick" that I could use for a topping. Back at Thanksgiving I finally just made my own pie crusts for pies and realized I could do the same for Chicken Pot Pie, but have been too lazy to get around to doing it! The "topping" in this recipe solves my problem... hooray!

Sounds good...and now I can make chicken pot pie without having to make a second trip to the store because I forgot the crusts...I mean who buys pie crusts anyway...what an annoying item to buy. THanks...I'll be gtrying that one soon...probably this week.

Ha! My thoughts exactly on pie crusts. When I did make the trip to get 'em, I had to double back over the store a couple times to figure out where they keep 'em to begin with. If that tells you anything about how many "pies" I have made in my life. ;)

Making this tonight! One of the kids favorites. Last night I made their other favorite - hamburger soup. Super easy and will taste even better for leftovers on Thursday night!

Hamburger Soup? Sounds good. Send that recipe my way!
