I've done it using leftover barbecue sauced chicken and frozen mixed vegetables.  It was so good using that chicken.

It sounds good your way, too. 

I've done a variation of something like the original recipe.

I also used frozen mixed veggies, and used jarred chicken gravy, instead of the canned soup and milk.

I also used two refrigerated pie crusts, along with some chicken.

I used a deep dish glass pie plate to bake it in, because it makes a large family-sized pie, once all of the ingredients are added in.

Hi @Toppers, what brand of jarred chicken gravy do you use?  I would love to take a run at this recipe when the weather cools off . . .

Hi @momtochloe,

I bought the Aldi's brand of jarred chicken gravy when I made it, but you can use the Heinz brand if you have tried their brand and like theirs. I like their particular brand, too.

I like the seasonings that they put in their gravy. We think that it tastes nice, without being too seasoned or too salty. 

I also used Aldi's packaged refrigerated pie crusts, too. 

For the veggies, I just got the mixed Country Blend without the Lima beans in there-the kind that comes with the corn, peas, beans, and carrots in there, that most markets carry some version of. 

If I recall, Aldi's brand of jarred gravy might be seasonal around the holidays. I don't know if they always have it available. 

When we shop at Aldi's, I try to get whatever I can there, because I think that their prices just happen to be the best around. 

If my DH goes without me, I make out a shopping list for him to get as much as he can while there. 

I'll have to find the recipe, and then I'll post it for everyone. It's really easy.

I think that it calls for canned chicken in water in the original recipe, but you can substitute pre-cooked chicken in it if you'd rather do that. 

I tried making it with the canned chicken, and it turned out really good.

Thanks @Toppers, I'll keep this in mind when the weather cools off as I would love to try making this! . . .

Hi @momtochloe,

I posted the pot pie recipe here in the Recipe Forum for you and for anyone else who would like to see it.

It's from Campbell's Kitchen. It's a Swanson's Recipe because it calls for their Swanson's canned chicken in the recipe.

They have all different kinds of pot pie recipe variations if you take a look at Campbell's website. 

In fact, I'm sure you could probably eat pot pie to your heart's content, looking over there. At least, I know that I could, because we love pot pie over here! LOL!!
