Brenda Easy Pot Pie To Die For

Cool slightly before serving: Let the pie cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing to allow the filling to set.
Tips for the Best Pot Pie
Use Rotisserie Chicken: Save time by using pre-cooked rotisserie chicken. It’s flavorful, tender, and pairs perfectly with the creamy filling.
Enhance the Flavor: For added depth, sprinkle a pinch of thyme, rosemary, or paprika into the filling.
Prevent Soggy Crust: Pre-bake the bottom crust for 5–7 minutes before adding the filling to keep it flaky.
Customize the Veggies: If you’re not a fan of canned vegetables, use fresh or frozen vegetables like peas, carrots, green beans, or corn.
Double the Recipe: Make two pies and freeze one for a future meal. Pot pies freeze beautifully and reheat well.

2. Vegetarian Pot Pie
Skip the chicken and add more vegetables like mushrooms, zucchini, or spinach. Use cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken.

3. Cheddar-Topped Pot Pie
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the filling before adding the top crust for a cheesy twist.

FAQs
1. Can I use homemade pie crust instead of store-bought?
Absolutely! Homemade pie crust will give the pot pie a richer, buttery flavor. However, using store-bought crusts saves time and still delivers delicious results.

2. How do I store leftover pot pie?
Cover leftovers tightly with foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through.

3. Can I freeze pot pie?
Yes! Assemble the pie as directed but do not bake it. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil, then freeze for up to 3 months. Bake directly from frozen, adding an additional 15–20 minutes to the cooking time.

4. Can I make this recipe dairy-free?
To make a dairy-free version, use a dairy-free cream cheese alternative and substitute the milk with almond or oat milk. Check that your pie crust and soup are also dairy-free.

5. Can I add more spices to the filling?
Of course! Feel free to customize the flavor with additional spices like paprika, thyme, or onion powder. A dash of hot sauce or cayenne pepper can also add a kick.
