Chicken Pot Pie With Potato Crust
"We were craving chicken pot pie one day, and didn't want a traditional crusted pie. So I used a mashed potato topping like I use for Sheppard's or Cottage Pie. I also don't like using cream of ... soups, so I made a milk free version."

Very tasty. We especially liked the sauce/gravy. The browned flour gave the dish a great, savory flavor.
