  2. this recipe is very good. BUT – anything leftover is very dry – there is the cream sauce, as it's been absorbed into the meat/vegetables. so any leftovers are very dry and UNfulfilling. i've made this recipe five times in the last year, and it always turns out the same – great the first time, but leftovers are just extremely disappointing.

  3. Supermarket rotisserie chicken is expired chicken never buy a rotisserie chicken. Did you think that they just went out and got the freshest chicken in the store and cook them in the rotisserie no they get the old expired rotisserie chicken from the frozen meat department and they cook that

  4. Just made this. Best. Agree with many below. Cook times very. Potatoes took longer. Pie crust perfect. Filling is exact. Let the Filling Sit. Sat for an hour. Still warm. Cut like a champ! Made a dinner party perfect. Surpise! Good food.

  5. My mom did something similar to this with leftover roast beef, she would cut up the roast and veggies, thicken the gravy and then put it in a crust. So good on a fall day

  6. Thank you for sharing this recipe! I am not good at making pies and I was able to make this successfully, even rolling out the dough! Thank you so much, I am excited to make this again
