Workin' Mom's Chicken Pot Pie
I still appreciate a "from scratch" recipe but this recipe is the one to solve all my problems! Quick, fast, cheap and it sneaks in lots of veggies!
INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
2 (15 ounce) cans mixed vegetables, drained
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
DIRECTIONS
Boil or steam the chicken breasts until done. Dice.
Mix together undiluted soup, canned vegetables, and diced chicken. Pour mixture into pie shell, and cover with the second crust. Crimp the edges, and make slits in the top crust.
Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
