Individual Chicken (or Turkey) Pot Pie with Crescent Tops

Chicken Pot Pie OR Turkey Pot Pie from Scratch OR Leftovers

… no matter which way you make it, it is going to be good!

I grew up and never really liked Pot Pie most of my life (not sure if it is the peas – this recipe doesn’t use them, if you like ’em then feel free to use ’em). Knowing how much Rich loves Pot Pie though, I have been working on making versions which I like. This one fits the bill & is so incredibly adorable in its individual servings (or you can make in one big dish if you want too).

In this busy Holiday Season you can have dinner on the table in less than an hour with very little effort. And here is a little helpful hint… as you are packing away all of your Thanksgiving Turkey Leftovers, why not chop some up into bite-size pieces and put in the freezer in 1 – 2 cup portions which will then be perfect to just toss into this recipe!

Happy Thanksgiving!
