I made chicken soup earlier in the week and used the meat, broth and veggies from the soup (plus frozen veg). Added garlic powder and oregano to the chicken broth mixture, as other reviews recommended. Did everything else according to the recipe. A perfect use of leftovers... will definitely be making it again!

I had leftover chicken meat so I used that instead of following the first step of boiling chicken. I followed the rest of the recipe. Excptions: I used 1/2 lb of chicken meat, increased the veggies by 1/2 cup, used fresh cauliflower and carrot instead of frozen, didn't have parsely so doubled the thyme and added salt and fresh ground pepper for more flavour. I also used frozen pastry pie shells. The filling made two pies, using those shells, with top and bottom crust. I like having a bottom crust. This is a simple but time consuming recipe, and makes a nice dinner/lunch with a side of salad. I've made it more than once and will again.

Very good, I did like someone else said and used heavy whipping cream. Turned out very good.

The only thing I did differently was to kick up the pepper. I added freshly ground pepper -- however much I liked -- and it was wonderful. The sauce is not too thick or heavy. I did use 1% milk. I might bump up the thyme a bit next time. There were no left overs!

Delicious! My hubby loved it and that is always a good thing! I sauteed the onions prior to mixing it into the soup mixture. I also used half and half.

This is a wonderful recipe. I took it to a friend who had surgery. She ate one serving, her husband ate two servings and when I left he assured me, he put the leftovers in the refrigerator where she couldn't find them. The next day I understand there was 'great discussion' over who would get the last bite.

For me Chicken Pot Pies scream out for green peas and potatoes, so I added them. Also, I like a bottom layer of crust and added that as well. I used part milk and part cream for the milk portion. I think I used too much cream, as it turned out not runny at all, which means it will be dry when reheated, so it may have been more to my liking to use less cream or no cream at all. My entire family loved it, even my picky 10 year old daughter. That to me means 5 stars. Saving this to my recipe book!

Excellent!! Used a rotisserie chicken instead of cooking one and used ready-made roll pie crust on top and bottom. Cut the prep time for a busy schedule. Yummy!!

very good recipe, especially because there is no "soup" involved. I did find it, like others, bland. It really needs more salt or something. Will make again.
