Really wonderfully tasty dish! The ordinary pie is turned to something new. I prepared the Most Incredible No Fail Pie Crust #28943, as suggested and it was great, too. For veggies I felt I had to use sweet peppers, onion and celery and sauted them lightly in butter before adding flour and the rest of it. I felt there wasn't enough chicken and used the whole chicken for this. I used skim milk and felt it was tad too dry and added 1/2 cup sour cream. The four of us devoured this, but I think we might have eaten a little more than really necessary. But what can you do, it was so yummy....Reply
