chicken pot pie

first, i make a white sauce:
-melt 1/3 c butter in a large pan with 1 chopped onion.
-add 1/3 c flour to butter and stir for about 1 minute, until thickened
-mix 2/3 c milk and 1 3/4 c chicken broth to sauce
-stir until sauce boils and thickens. add salt and pepper

then add vegetables:
-i use whatever veggies i find in my fridge...such as carrots, corn, bell peppers, spinach, broccoli, celery, squash, sometimes potatoes, and so on. about 4-6 cups of veggies cut up.

-add veggies to white sauce and let simmer until veggies are about half-way cooked

then add chicken:
-add some cooked chicken (about 2 breasts). shred or chop the chicken and add to the sauce and veggies.

then add to pie crust:
i use the pre-made pie crust, and add the pot pie mixture. bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes. this is a definite crowd pleaser in the johnson household. this meal also freezes really well, and you can make a whole bunch at one time.
