CHICKLESS POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan, combine the carrots, peas, potatoes and celery. Cover with water, bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain and set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the onions in the butter substitute until they are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, celery seed and garlic powder. Cook for 2 minutes to get the flour taste out. Slowly stir in the broth and then add the milk. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until thick, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the drained vegetables. Roll out one of the unbaked crusts and place in a 9-inch-deep pie plate. Pour the mixture into the bottom crust.
• Roll out the second pie crust and place on top. Seal the edges and cut small slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Bake until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN POT PIE WITHOUT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening, butter and cheese till crumbs form. Add water and toss with a fork just until dough just forms a ball.
• Turn onto lightly floured board. Press large chunks away with heel of hand. Gather and repeat. Shape into thick circle. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 30 minutes.
• Stew chicken with enough water to cover it, along with the onion and celery, until done. This usually takes from 60 to 90 minutes.
• Remove chicken from broth. Debone and skin. Chop meat.
• Skim off fat from broth. Discard the celery and onion. Reserve 3 cups broth for this recipe. (The more concentrated the broth, the better.).
• Melt butter. Add flour. Cook and stir until bubbly. Add reserved broth and evaporated milk. Don't just dump all the liquids into the flour mixture--work in about 1/4 cup at a time until it is thinned out, and then you can increase how much liquid you can work in each time. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in chicken. Put chicken filling in a round casserole dish.
• Roll out dough, a little bigger than your dish so that you can have some dough to crimp. Place dough over chicken filling. Crimp edges.
• Bake at 425 degrees for about 30-60 minutes or until crust is golden. If you check it and the edges of the pie are looking browned before the rest of it is ready, put foil over the edges -- just make like a long little tent and loosely attach over the edges.
