Nora: A long time back, a coworker brought chicken pot pie leftovers to work that were very similar to this recipe. Cream of chicken soup, canned biscuits, you know the drill. I thought that kind of comfort food would be out of my reach until we came across this recipe! You can make your own vegan biscuits if you prefer not to deal with the spooky ingredients in canned biscuits.
Josh: Wholesome, savory, creamy, indulgent, and also delicious. This has that perfectly warming, pot pie eating experience to it. It is easy to make and great for reheating. It can feed a group or provide leftovers for many meals to come. Great in cold weather but also great in not-cold weather because it’s so darn scrumptious.
