Chicken Pot Pie, minus 3.14159…

Pie is Fun Food so I am not dissing pie!  And March 14th is National Pi Day while January 23rd is National PIE day – thank you Thrillist for this clarifying article.

AND I firmly believe chicken pot pie is amazing and buy or order it frequently.  Hello Savary Island Pie Company or 700+ yr old Sheepheid Inn in Edinburgh or Summerhill Market in TO.  But, I confess that the filling is my favourite part of a pie – chicken pot or otherwise.  

When one of my favourite food sources Thrillist features an Extremely Lazy, Insanely Delicious Chicken Pot Pie recipe, I have to try it!  And, since I am even lazier than Greer Glassman “recipeist extraordinaire”, I intend to make the recipe minus the pie part.   And maybe it will be eaten straight out of the pot with a spoon or perhaps over rice or mashed potatoes…

PS – I’m guessing Chicken a la King may be the correct name for this but Chicken Pot Pie Filling is much more Fun!
