Homemade Chicken Pot Pie

*Notes – watch for sales on soups and vegs to make the cost per serving lower. I did purchase these on sale but not for as low as I normally would. Also instead of buying chicken just for this…When you cook a whole chicken, pick the meat off the bone and freeze it to use later in this recipe or freeze any leftover chicken to use in this at a later time. I used skinless boneless chicken breasts and cooked them in chicken broth all day in the crock pot.
