    Ahhh.... pot pie. It really is the ultimate comfort food.

    Whether big or small, chicken or beef, homemade or store bought....there's something about it that just feels cozy. Comfortable. Inviting. Amiright?

    And while I would never speak badly about the little frozen ones you can buy at the store (they were a childhood staple, after all) I will say that once you discover how easy it is to make homemade chicken pot pie, you'll never go store bought again.

    Especially when you shop at Pick 'n Save and take advantage of all the shortcuts. Like Simple Truth Organic pie crusts and frozen mixed vegetables and store bought rotisserie chicken. Yes, yes, and yes, please. Talk about making an easy recipe even easier!

    This recipe is oven-ready in just 15 minutes and fully baked in 45. It's easy to make ahead and pop into the oven when you get home from work, and the leftovers couldn't be more delicious.

    If you love comfort food, you'll love this quick and easy recipe. Guaranteed to become a favorite!

    CAN YOU USE FRESH VEGETABLES?

    Yes, you can absolutely substitute fresh chopped vegetables for the frozen mixed vegetables. To replicate the frozen mix, add corn, green beans, carrots, and peas. You can also substitute other vegetables, including broccoli, cauliflower, or mushrooms.

    CAN YOU USE HOMEMADE PIE CRUST?

    Feel free to substitute your favorite pie crust recipe for the store bought crust, and simply bake as you normally would. As pie crust recipes can vary, be aware of the temperature and timing based on the crust you use.

    CAN YOU USE CHICKEN BREAST OR THIGHS IN PLACE OF ROTISSERIE CHICKEN?

    Any type of shredded or chopped cooked chicken will work in this recipe. If your family prefers all white meat, feel free to use chopped or shredded chicken breasts. If your family prefers dark meat, chicken thighs would be a good alternative.

      This was fantastic. I baked in a cast iron skillet. I also used boiled chicken breast tenders instead of a rotisserie chicken. We thought it was absolutely amazing!!

      I made this recipe today, and it was great! For my personal preference, I would put a little less poultry seasoning which I will do next time, but other than that, I wouldn't change a thing. I like that it was easy to do, too.

      I made this to take to a family who just had a new baby. They said they really liked it. I also made extra for my husband and he loved it. I think it’s a really good recipe. I will definitely use it again.

      Did this today (but with fresh cut vegies) and it was a big hit. Just right for 3 or 4 people. Also, tried it in a slightly deeper casserole dish. Couldn't have been better! THANK YOU. ????????
