Chicken Pot Pie

Chicken pot pie is a very hearty meal, but very easy to make; time consuming yes, but simple at best. For the past 3 months Kai has been asking and asking 'Mom, can you please make pot pie tonight?' I never felt like making such a HUGE meal. Tonight, I decided to surprise her with pot pie. Oh Boy! Did she ever freak out! I used a recipe that my grandmother used to make and passed down to me many years ago (like 7 or 8 years ago wow been a while). This is simply the best recipe ever and you can switch it up instead of making pie crust, boil some egg noddles and make it into a soup. I do this ALL the time, but Kai asked for pot pie with the crust plsss. 😂 Now, I normally make homemade crust, but I was just not feeling it. With the holidays right around the corner, I have soooo much I need to get done with editing, blog stuff, recipes, and tons more that I just did not have time. This crust was the BEST crust I have ever had. It's made in the USA, Non-GMO and organically made (so for me, it passed the test). It has like 5-7 ingredients maybe less. 

Normally, after you cook this for 45-60 minutes, you need to let it cool the same amount of time so it thickens up and is not liquid-y. However, these kids were NOT waiting for more time to pass, so I just served it.

1 Cups Onion, minced

2 Cups Chicken Bone Broth
