A CHICKEN POT PIE KIND OF A DAY

Today it snowed all day long!  It was lovely and since I was home for some sewing I decided to make Chicken Pot Pie.  Now that's comfort food.



I looked at a number of recipes and settled on this recipe from the A Taste of Home website.  I also made a Spinach Salad which was a nice accompaniment with the pie.


Instead of using the recommended store bought pie crust - I made mine from scratch.  Well actually - I made 2 so I had to double the crisco pie dough recipe.  As I was making the filling I thought "this is a lot of filling" and then I realized this recipe made 2 chicken pot pies so I have one in the freezer too!

  1. Beautiful pictures of your comfort food, chicken pie sounds delicious. We have cold and wet weather now, so I am going to make some comfort food too for this evening. Pretty teapots on the dresser.

  5. Chicken pot pie always sounds so good. I need to check out the recipe you used, as I have not found one I like. The spinach salad looks delicious and I need something to take to a potluck tomorrow, this could be it.

  6. Chicken pot pie does sound like comfort food and the deign on your pastry along with the edges makes it look very appetizing.
