FLAVORFUL AND COMFORTING CHICKEN POT PIE
Not just your average pot pie, this dish is full of flavor and so wonderfully comforting on a cold winter night! Add whatever vegetables you have on hand, almost any will do. I served this with a simple salad of soft butter lettuce with a lemon and olive oil vinaigrette and a Pinot Noir in front of the fire! This makes a large, deep dish pie, or two, regular pies.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place mixed vegetables in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high power for 4 to 5 minutes. Drain.
- Meanwhile, lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Place 1 pie crust in the bottom of the prepared pie plate.
- Stir condensed coup, mayonnaise, milk, celery salt, garlic powder, pepper, and thyme together in a large bowl. Add chicken and mixed vegetables; mix well. Pour into the bottom pie crust. Place remaining pie crust on top of the pie plate. Trim so crust is even with the edge of the plate and use a fork to press crust down around edges to seal. Cut 3 small slits near the center of the crust. Cover the outside edges of the crust with foil or a pie protector to prevent edge from overcooking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until crust is brown and flaky, 5 to 10 minutes.

EASY CHICKEN POT PIE...WITH FLAVOR!!
I bought the 2007 Taste of Home low fat Comfort food cookbook and found this gem in it. We love this recipe!! What sets this apart from the typical Bisquick recipe is that this recipe calls for poultry seasoning and thyme...it's all about flavor with these two. It also calls for lower in fat ingredients as well tons of flavor without the typical fat you can find in your traditional pot pie. If you are following weight watchers, this serves 6 people (1 1/3 cup of the mixture) with two biscuits each and only 6 weight watcher points a serving. *****I changed this recipe up...rather then 2-16 oz BAGS of veggies as the original recipe called for...I just opted for one. With how it only serves 6....it would of been way too many veggies. Also...rather then using thawed veggies I opted to keep them frozen...that way the veggies wouldn't be mush after the baking process. You will love this one!!!
