Someone Bit The Pie

Someone bit the pie. A delectable bite-size pie. Homemade comfort food. Tastes great and I really like the creamy filing of chicken meat, potatoes and slivers of egg. You can really get creative with pies as they are quite versatile and tastes great with most meat and vegetable filings. I don't have the exact recipe for this great tasting pie but here's something close to what is featured today. Have fun with this recipe of mini chicken pot pies courtesy of Sandra Lee.
