I use a really similar recipe with our family but I can’t wait to try yours for something new. It’s a family favorite!

This is my sweetheart’s all time favorite. When I only have a few minutes to throw it together I often use left-over roast chicken or a couple rotisserie chicken thighs from the market – already cooked. I also use a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup for the sauce part of the filling, diluted with a little half and half. – sort of cheating, but delectable nonetheless

Made it last night and my family INHALED it. Surprisingly easy to make, and I was able to use up all my leftover chicken and veggies from the night before. This one is definitely a keeper!

This looks great! Thanks for the recipe.

This pot pie is no doubt delicious, but if using fresh potatoes, carrots and chicken, it takes WAY longer than 25 minutes to prepare. So, make time for that so that you aren’t serving your family at 8:00, like I ended up doing. I will make this again! Yums for sure!

Made this Friday night for my fiance and 6 of our friends. It turned out great, and everyone enjoyed it. I made a double-recipe, but did not use the bottom pie crusts. I just put one crust on top of each pot pie. I will make this again (just like my mom’s recipe but with the added bonus of potatoes!).

I read the ingredients wrong and used 1/2 tsp of thyme instead of 1/3 tsp and found it to be overwhelming. Big oops! But it was delish with Ree’s pie crust.

Thanks for sharing!
