This homemade pot pie is made easier by turning it into a casserole and using crescent rolls instead of pie crust. First a tube of crescent rolls are placed in the bottom of a baking dish and baked. The filling is started with onions, chicken, frozen potatoes, peas & carrots. Then two cans of cream of chicken soup are stirred into the filling with seasonings. Next the filling is spooned over the crust and topped with another tube of crescent roll dough. The casserole is baked and served warm. Since the uses frozen vegetables and tubes of crescent rolls, less groceries are needed to make this delicious meal.

Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray 9×13 baking pan with cooking spray. Unroll 1 tube of crescent rolls and place in baking dish in 1 piece, use fingers to press together all seams and make an even layer of dough in the bottom and partially up the sides of the dish. Bake for 20 minutes.

Cook 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts.

Heat 1 tbsp oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Then add 1 cup diced onion and celery and cook for 2 minutes until translucent.

Next add the cooked chicken, 2 cups frozen diced potatoes, 12 oz frozen peas & carrots and 1 cup water.

Bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 10 minutes. Uncover and stir in 2 (10.75 oz) cans cream of chicken soup and ½ tsp poultry seasoning.

Spoon into baked crust. Unroll a second tube of crescent roll and lay on top of filling, sealing the edges. Cut 4 to 6 steam vents into the top of the crust. Then brush with 1 tbsp milk.
