Here are 2 Chicken Pot Pie recipes our family loves. Both are very simple to make. The Betty Crocker version is hands down the best tasting thing you've ever eaten. Since it uses all fresh, homemade ingredients the taste is amazing. Even if you are not an onion person, dice them very, very fine and put them in. They are the key to giving this recipe great flavor.

If you are in a hurry-the Quick Pot Pie version is your best bet. It can be thrown together in 5 minutes.

Did you know you can freeze pie crusts? Frozen pie crust is a great thing to have on hand. So are the bags of mixed peas and carrots. With these two staples you can always have the ingredients on hand to make this dinner.
