Chicken Pot Pie
All the ingredients you'll need
Start by getting out your trusty old crockpot
Cut your chicken into little cubes - about 1/2 to 1 inch sized
Add to crockpot
Peel, rinse, and cube your potatoes - About 1/2 to 1 inch pieces
Add to crockpot
Add your soup, bouillon cubes, and spices
Mix all your ingredients and set on high for 6 hours
Stir Ingredients a few times throughout the 6 hours
Once its finished let it come to room temperature
Use your pie tin to measure your circle to cut the bottom and the top
Add a heaping 1 cup measuring cup to each pie
Add the top, use a fork to seal edges and take a knife and put 3 slits in the top
Now I was lazy I didn't do this part...but at this point you would add an egg wash to the top to help it get a little crispier and have a nice color when it cooks
Finished deliciousness.
