You all know how much I love wholesome, tasty food… yeah? and my love for easy food fast… I adore dinner it’s my favourite time of the day, and hate waiting for it to cook, especially’s when it smells like this homemade chicken pie.

There is nothing like a good pie… not one of those flat, empty yokes you get in foil trays in the supermarket. (they’re nothing like a good pie).. You want a pie that is full of filling, with huge chunks of chicken floating in a creamy sauce, topped off with a fluffy puff pastry hat…. This one is cooked in 4 easy steps ( just as easy as the foil tray supermarket one ) … and added bonus is that it tastes so creamy, without the cream (you now can… eat all the pie,s) good wholesome family food, that guarantees clean plates all round…

I can’t wait to hear how you guys get on with this one…. keep sending your photos to me on the fb page here … nothing makes my day more than seeing all your little munchkins enjoying their grub …
