CHEATER'S CHICKEN POT PIE
A pot pie that will please people who love an easy recipe and a tasty hot and hearty meal. I invented this using things I had in the house on a night I just didn't feel like going to the super market. Its also a good way to use up leftovers from a holiday dinner. The best part of this recipe is there isn't a pie crust in site! As always, it's all about taste so don't be afraid to experiment. Note: If you know how to make mashed potatoes its pretty difficult to mess this up, you can even use instant if you have them around. You don't have to follow portion sizes allotted below either, just make as much or as little will fit in the dish of your choosing. You can also use uncooked chicken, just pan brown it on medium heat (it will cook fast because of the small pieces) and add as specified.

Steps:
- Peel and cube potatoes and set to boil in slightly salted water to make mashed potatoes.
- Take leftover chicken or turkey and cut into 1" cubes, add to casserole dish.
- Measure out veggies, frozen or fresh and mix in with chicken/turkey.
- Add 1.5 cans of cream of chicken soup. I used whatever it took to coat the chicken and veggies. This is the stage I season at so add what you think would taste good ;) If it seems too thick you can add a little water or milk, but remember that heating it will also make it thinner.
- When potatoes are soft and water is slightly cloudy remove from heat and drain. Mash the potatoes with a mixer or by hand, adding butter or plain yogurt and the remaining cream of chicken soup. If potatoes are too stiff, add milk, but you don't want them to be runny. You will also want to salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour mashed potatoes over the chicken and veggie mix. I usually top it with a couple shakes of paprika for color.
- Bake covered at 450 for 30 minutes or until the filling starts to bubble up around the mashed potatoes.
- Remove from oven and let set for at least 5 minutes, the inside of that potpie will be like molten lava!
- Enjoy! Makes great next day lunch.

CHEESY CHICKEN POT PIE
I love cheese so I experimented and found that this is the greatest meat pie I have ever eaten! This pie makes good use of any chicken or turkey leftovers. It normally serves about 6 people.

CHEATING CHICKEN POT PIE
My daughter-in-law, Jessica makes this hearty dish for us often. It is quick and easy....yummy and tasty....and warms the body on a cold crisp day. This dish is so easy and simple to make it has to be a "cheating recipe" she says.....because it is just as good as if it took you all day to make it and no one can tell the difference. I love it and so does the rest of my family. And if you try it, I know you will too! My granddaughter, Lily (6) says. "It tastes like a piece of Heaven." So, you know it has to be yummy! *Google Pic*
