Easy Chicken Pot Pie

I never used to be a fan of chicken pot pie growing up. I think it was the soggy bread (food textures and I have an interesting relationship haha). However, I found this recipe last year and have made it a couple times. It’s restored my love for pot pie so I figured I would share it with you!

Also, my kids actually eat it and as you know, if my kids will eat it, it’s a keeper!
