Lunch: Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie

Recipe by Chris I love cheese so I experimented and found that this is the greatest meat pie I have ever eaten! This pie makes good use of any chicken or turkey leftovers. It normally serves about 6 people.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1 cup cooked, shredded chicken meat
3/4 cup green peas
1/3 cup diced celery
1/3 cup diced carrots
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup milk
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie

Instructions

In a medium saucepan combine the stock, chicken, peas, celery and carrots. Bring to a boil.
Mix cornstarch with milk and stir into stock mixture. Cook stirring constantly for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Stir cheese into filling mixture and pour into a 9 inch pie crust. Top with second crust, seal edges and cut slits in top crust. Place on a cookie sheet and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until top crust is golden brown.
