"I got this recipe from allrecipes.com. I really don't like chicken pot pie all that much, so I thought I'd try to find a recipe for it that had ingredients I like. I think the reason I haven't liked them in the past is that they had mixed vegetables in them. I am not a fan of peas, green beans or lima beans mixed into recipes. I just like them by themselves (excpet for lima beans...I don't like them at all. This is the original recipe, and I have noted my changes at the bottom. My hubby said (with my changes) that it was the best chicken pot pie he's ever had."

-I omitted the mushrooms because my husband doesn't like them
-I used 1 1/2 cups broccoli and 1 1/2 cups carrots for the veggies. I pre-cooked the broccoli and then ran it through the food processor so the kids would be more likely to eat the small chunks
-I only used three large chicken breast halves. I diced it before I sauted it (adding a small amount of olive oil), and used about 1 tablespoon of Mrs. Dash "table blend" seasoning instead of "poultry seasoning".
-I covered the edge of the pie crust with foil for the first 35 minutes of baking.
