NOTES

We use Thanksgiving leftovers like and  to add extra flavor and save time. Buttered carrots, corn and mashed potatoes also make for excellent pot pie fillings. Feel free to get creative with what you add in according to what flavors you like best. Peas, , really anything goes. You can even use leftover  if you prefer over chicken. Either way, I recommend using dark meat as it is more moist.A delicious, flaky gluten-free pie crust is key in this recipe. The pie crust my mom spent years perfecting in our cookbook, 

 is the absolutely best! It is buttery, flaky and can be manipulated without falling apart. If you need a different recipe, I suggest  from Life After Wheat. If you’d prefer just buy one, then I can definitely recommend the  It is easy to make and tastes fantastic!Leftovers (if you have any) can be stored right in the pie pan covered with tinfoil in the fridge for up to three days. If you love this recipe, you are going to really enjoy these as well…
