SIMPLE & EASY Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

Good Tuesday morning to ya!
Thanks for tuning in...

It was so cold/grey/rainy here yesterday,
I rocked a pair of sweat pants and uggs and didn't leave my house!
Being a 'stay at home mom' and then 
ACTUALLY staying home is sort of nice.


I want to share this super yummy / hearty / simple dinner with you guys. Since the weather was in the 40's yesterday I thought this would be a good warm meal.

I make this a few times in the winter, and each time it's different, but last night looked like this:


Super Simple Chicken Pot Pie:

Ingredients-
1 box of pie crust (2 rolls)
4-5 red potatoes (skin on)
2 medium sized skinless/boneless chicken breast
1 can of a 'cream' soup 
(i used cream of broccoli because thats what i had on hand)
 1-2 cups of Milk
1 can of corn
1 frozen bag of peas
1 frozen bag of green beans
(any vegetable would work)
Salt & Pepper





Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 
(or as according to the pie crust directions)
bake the bottom crust alone accordingly.
i usually make 2 and freeze one or 1 will be a vegetarian option

Wash the potatoes and chop.
I then steam mine until tender.

Cube the chicken, season with Salt & Pepper 
then sauté.
Once thoroughly cooked, stir in cream soup.



Add in your vegetable selections
Stir!
Add 1 - 1 1/5 cups of milk
I guess the milk amount depends on your preference for how creamy it is.
Ryan & I prefer it on the dry side and hearty.
Scoop into pie pan and cover with remaining crust.
 BAKE!
375 for 22 minutes


I made myself a "V"egetarian version:
(broccoli, green beans, corn, potatoes, peas)






ENJOY!

(I eat my veggie pot pie with tons of Sweet Baby Rays BBQ on it)
please don't gag until you try it! 
YUM.
