lazy girls chicken pot pie with dressing optional
I call this lazy because I used chicken gravy in the jar, purchased pie crust, canned potatoes, and frozen veggies. Even the garlic was from a jar, no chop. I did chop some onion and some celery and that was the extent of effort. The individual casserole dishes that I use are rather deep, they hold 2 1/2 cups. You can put in a layer of leftover dressing in the bottom of the pies if you like, that is yummy too.
