"Healthified" Chicken Pot Pie

"Healthified" Chicken Pot Pie
Recipe Tip
What is "Healthified"?
We've replaced ingredients with great-tasting alternatives to create better-for-you recipes that are just as yummy as the original.
Variation
For a different pot pie topping, make the recipe with Pillsbury® Crescent Recipe Creations™ refrigerated flaky dough sheet instead of the pie crust. Pour chicken mixture into 11x7- or 12x8-inch glass baking dish. Place the dough rectangle over hot filling; press to seal edges. Cut vents for steam. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
Time-Saver
Don't want to cook chicken? Look for cut-up cooked chicken near the other cooked meats or in the freezer section of the grocery store. Rotisserie chicken can also be used.

Great!
This recipe was fabulous! I doubled the recipe, and had to split it into two baking dishes. I used reduced fat crescent rolls on one, and the pie crust on the other. The crescent roll version was amazing!

Chicken Pot Pie
I made this last night and instead of using frozen veggies I used fresh and it turn out great. I use 3 celery stocks, 3 carrots (peeled), frozen peas, frozen corn, 2 red potatoes (boiled for a little bit so they weren't so hard) 3, chicken breasts. Then followed the rest of the recipe. It was great since I have left over and can vacuum seal and freeze them for later. I forwarded it to all my friends that love to cook so they can try it too.

yum yum!!
Made some adjustments 2nd time around making this recipe... I upped the mixed veggies to a 1lb bag. I left the onions out and added extra chicken. In order to compensate for the extra dry ingredients I added a can of campbell's condensed potato soup to keep the consistency right. I also put another pie crust on the bottom. That may have un"healthified" it but it was SO worth it! DELISH!! Rave reveiws all around!! YUM

Made it in one pot - but Needs more veggies
I followed the earlier suggestion and used a 16oz bag of mixed veggies. I also left out the salt. It was delicious. I turned this into an easy clean-up, one pot recipe by cooking the chicken in my two quart stovetop-to-oven pan, setting the cooked chicken aside, and then using the same pot to make the sauce and then bake the whole thing. Next time I may healthify the veggies by using green beans and carrots instead of the starchy mixed vegetables. A keeper :-)

chicken pot pie
very easy to make and so yummy! beats the pants off of anything I could buy in the store. A huge plus is that I know what the ingredients are. No preservatives, fillers,trans fats, etc. the bonus is you can change the recipie to fit your tastes. I like to add a pinch more poultry seasoning and an extra helping of veggies. A dash more pepper and heavy on the onions. It gets a little kick to it. Everyone should try this meal at least once.

Chicken Pot Pie still "healtified"
I really liked this recipe and it was absolutely scrumptous. I did make one change and used light sourcream rather then fat-free. I am not a fan of fat free sr crm. I also added more than 12 oz of mixed veggies and it made no difference in the mixture ratio. I added a bag of frozen stew mixed veggies that had potatoes, celery, carrots, and pearl onions. Y-U-M-M-Y! I was asked to put this on the regular menu list by kids and husband.

Yummy!
This is perfect on a cold evening. It is a healthified recipe but it was as good as any other pot pie I have had. I used left over lemon pepper rotisserie chicken that I had frozen the week before. Great recipe!
