We used cornstarch instead of flour it was great

"I really loved this recipe. My 9 year old is learning to cook and it was so easy for her. The ingredients were easy to find some of them were already in the house. Next time I need to make a double batch! My daughter, who does not like meat, especially chicken, even enjoyed it. I am truly impressed. The entire family was just waiting to eat it.(we cooked it the night before we served it). Thank you for posting your recipe. The only change I made was to use canned vegetables instead of frozen." - Marian12

    I took some of the reviews advice and to cut back on the salt, I used unsalted butter. I also diced a approximately 1 1/2 cups of potatoes due to the mixed veggies not having any in it, and I did blanch all the veggies before mixing them into the sauce. It wouldn't quite fit in a deep dish pie pan so I used an 8x8 glass baking dish and it worked out just fine. Also, I did make an egg wash for the top and it turned out awesome! My husband who usually will not go near vegetables loved this and so did my mother. The only thing I didn't put in it was the onions because my husband won't eat anything with onions in it. Next time I will be making 2 smaller ones so I can have the onions in it hehe. Will definitely make again!

    OMG! Loved it!! Tad bit salty (will use salt free butter next time and a bit less salt). Since I don't like pepper, I'll cut that by atleast half. This is one I will make many many times. Just went and bought small pie plate since there are just 2 of us most of the time. Will be making this for the next family dinner. Really amazed me with how good it was!

    OMG - TOTALLY wonderful! Really amazed myself. Next time, however, will cut back the salt and pepper some. So good that I'm looking for small pie pans so I can make individuals and freeze. dontdon't cook

    This recipe made the most delicious chicken pot pie! And it was fun to make. I've always been a bit apprehensive working with pie crusts but turns out I'm pretty good with them. This makes a lot of food and it's just me and my husband. The leftovers the next night were not as good, but next time I make it I'm inviting my sister & kids over and we will devour the whole thing in one night. Very satisfying meal!

    I made this for lunch today for me and my family and it was excellent. I used canned Vegetables in mine and it worked just fine.

    Loved it. A family fav.

    Definately steam or parboil the veggies first so they are tender. I used fresh, organic veggies. And I shouldn't have added in so much flower the sauce was actually a bit too thick. But I'll make this again.

    This was so easy and delicious. I used fresh chopped carrots, green beans and peas for the vegetables. Fresh vegetables should probably be steamed first to make them softer

    This was very good. It was a little dry and could have used a little more chicken broth. I may have let it set too long after taking it out of the oven.

    Thank you! Not only was this recipe a massive success at my table, you have also provided a fantastic alternative to 'cream of...' with the sauce alone. My boyfriend must have said 'this is really good' five times!
