Quick Chicken Pot Pie

Today I decided to convert many of my recipe card, scrap paper, and computer printed recipes to My Demy.  It takes time, but it is so worth it.  If you didn't get a chance to see my post on my new kitchen gadget, check it out here.

So for tonight I was inspired to make Quick Chicken Pot Pie which was on a tattered and stained recipe card.  It was a family favourite when my kids were growing up, and I pleased the family again tonight by making it.

It's simple to make and simple comfort food.
