Chicken Pot Pie

This is a very forgiving recipe, feel free to change or add things!

*Shredded Chicken Breast (Cheap Chicken) $1.25 if I use the whole package
*1 package of frozen mixed veggies - $1 Cheap Trick - Save bits of left over veggies from previous meals in a ziplock bag in the freezer.
*1 can of cream of chicken soup or whatever you have on hand. I use the 98% Fat Free. - $1 - not on sale and no ad match! eep!
*Season to taste - I use Cavender's Greek Seasoning - .25 ?
*Cheese (optional) 1/2 cup - .65
*Biscuit recipe or Bisquick, mixed to a pourable consistency (add in a bit of garlic powder for extra flavor - you could even mix the cheese into the crust!). .50

Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. Combine your first five ingredients in a lightly oiled casserole dish. Pour the biscuit "batter" or Bisquick over the top and bake until the biscuit topping is nicely browned. Approximately 35-45 minutes.

Total Cost $4.65
