One of my favorite dishes growing up was Mom’s chicken pot pie. What’s not to love? A creamy gooey center, big chunks of chicken, flavorful veggies and a delicious flakey crust to top it off! Chicken pot pie, however, is usually loaded with carbohydrates, calories, and other unwanted ingredients! Could I create a delicious and healthy chicken pot pie? The answer to that question is yes!
I am so excited about finally getting this recipe to you all! It has been quite the recipe to create. First I had to create a homemade cream of chicken soup that could be used as a base in this recipe. Next, I had to create a flakey pie crust (and you know me… it needed to be grain free and gluten free). Both of these recipes needed to be created easily and quickly so you weren’t spending the whole day in the kitchen. Finally, I had to create the filling, which was the easy part… all your favorite veggies and some organic chicken. This dish can be prepared in about a half hours time, not bad for chicken pot pie from scratch! So what are you waiting for? Here is a delicious gluten and grain free chicken pot pie that I promise won’t disappoint!
