Chicken Pot Pie

I don’t know about you but when I think of chicken pot pie I think of a table filled with loud laughter and tons of family on a cold wintry night maybe with a fireplace in the dining room lit to warm the house from the cold blizzard happening outside. I used to watch a lot of movies so my thoughts on family meals are a tad off the wall lol. I’m older now and kids have definitely taught me a thing or two about meal times!! Most importantly, they do not happen like that. Still, I like to keep my dreams 😉

Here’s my simple recipe for this delicious Classic Chicken Pot Pie.
