Chicken Pot Pie

This is the oldest recipe in my repertoire.  I was so excited to have frozen carrots and corn from the CSA and frozen peas from my visit’s to the Farmer’s Market in the spring to make this wholesomedinner as we rushed from afterschool activities to soccer practice and Back to School Night.
