Creamy (Veggie) Chicken & Beef Pot Pies
I made these yesterday. My first ever attempt at a pot pie. Mel really loves pot pies & I have been wanting to make him a homemade one. I got the recipe off the inside of the Philadelphia cream cheese box. But it called for a ready-made crust & I wanted to make a homemade one. I got the crust recipe from my Cuisinart food processor book. I made 2 different pies because I made mine with veggie "chicken" and the mixed veggies I like, and Mel's was made w/ Beef, gravy, and mixed veggies he picked out. I loved mine, but it was a little dry, I'd maybe add 2 cream cheese sauces to it or make a veggie gravy. I'd give it an 8 1/2 - 9. I didn't taste Mel's (since I don't eat meat), so I asked him to rate it honestly. He said it was a "10. The best pot pie I have ever had." He also said it was "perfect" and he "wouldn't change anything" and that it was his "favorite" of all the things I have made for him so far. So of course, I will definitely make these again!!
