Easy Chicken Pot Pie : Pastry Day

I am a big fan of Kentucky Fried Chicken Pot Pie. But Now that they have all closed down around here- I have had to make my own. I am not much of a pie maker (sorry Granny) – so I use frozen pie crust to make this recipe fast and easy. And use what ever meat I have left over and whatever vegetables in the freezer. So this recipe can be changes to what you like. Enjoy .. Lisa
