April's gone bananas round here. I noticed our cherry blossom had bloomed the other day, went out to get a pic, only for the sky to turn black and the rumble of thunder to come around. Can't win.

I'd very much enjoy curling up with a big helping of this dish. Chicken pie makes everything better :-)

mike, glad you tried it out as a vegetable version! the biscuit topping is great :)

tania, you should be out having picnics, not making pot pies!! yours looked lovely too.

thanks edamame!

wheeler, i might trade in a slice for some warm weather...definitely!

glad you loved it, wendy!

maija, hooray! glad you loved it. it's definitely a keeper :)

I made this, and it came out great. I made a few variations - no meat, celery, or turnips, so I did about 4-6 potatoes, 3 carrots, 1 zucchini (boiled the potatoes & sauteed zuke/carrots) plus the mushrooms. I added a little bit more milk (about 1/2 cup) as my mixture didn't look liquidy enough. Subbed rosemary for oregano. Came out great! First time I've made this, and I think it's a keeper!

This did indeed work really well as a vegetable pot pie! I made a bunch last night and everyone was really happy.

I hadn't ever thought of topping with biscuits but it's great. Thanks for the keeper of a recipe.

rachel, it certainly is freakish! today is sunshine and almost warm out! crazy.

no problem, hag!

mevrouw cupcake, today it feels almost like spring (almost!)...let's keep our fingers crossed, okay? :)

ric-rac, totally! i've fixed the mistake. thanks for your eagle eyes!

lynn, thanks! so far, the weather seems to be cooperating, but i'm not going to hold my breath!

maija, i'll be heading to your fine city in just a few weeks (it's my favorite city, actually!). sad to hear that it's just as gloomy there as it is here. booo!

meg, totally. what's going on!!!

i love your attitude, michelle!

2008-04-22T11:43:00.000-07:00

dammit, i love chicken pot pie, but the weather in the northeast is so lovely right now that it's totally unjustified.

i might make some anyway. fuck the weather.

2008-04-22T11:13:00.000-07:00

I've been making comfort food like crazy, too, and hoping that eventually, the weather will realize that we're at the end of bloody APRIL. The pot pie looks great; if this weather keeps going (and I sort of hope it doesn't, as good as your pot pie looks), I'll probably give it a go.

Oh, this sounds like the perfect comfort food. I ...

2008-04-22T09:52:00.000-07:00

Oh, this sounds like the perfect comfort food. I turned to mushroom barley soup this weekend, as it seemed fitting for this weather (I'm in Portland, OR). I like your ideas to make a veggie version of this - maybe I'll give it a spin tonight since this weather's in town for a few more days at least.

2008-04-22T09:24:00.000-07:00

I couldn't handle the weekend of snow. It's spring, for Pete's sake! This pot pie might have made me feel better. It looks delicious.

2008-04-22T09:16:00.000-07:00

Just wondering... I see in the biscuit steps that baking powder and baking soda are both mentioned, but baking soda isn't in the ingredients. Is that right? Looks yummy!

2008-04-22T05:35:00.000-07:00

Oh Jeanette, I hear ya! We've been having some crap-ass weather over here in Clogland, but it seems to have cleared up a bit, for now. I'll take any sunny, albiet cold reprive I can get, so for now no complaining.

Whatever the case, chicken pot pie makes everything better. Good skillz!

2008-04-21T20:49:00.000-07:00

I am so pissed off with the weather! It's not that it has been especially rainy...but cold! That one Saturday was such a tease! Thanks for hearty chicken pot-pie recipe.

veggiegirl, i'm so down on april and it's wacky weather. i keep crossing my fingers for spring!!

sylvie, at least i'm not alone with my weather woes!!

i'm definitely jealous of your summer, bijoux! and this pot pie would work with tofu or just veggies!

tiny morsels, a rutabaga is a big ol' yellow turnip. as far as i know, rutabaga is the common name as i grew up with it here in canada. maybe it's just known as a turnip south of the border!

2008-04-21T15:00:00.000-07:00

i don't know what a rutabaga is, but i'm totally gonna figure it out and make me some chicken pot pie. looks wonderful!

2008-04-21T13:53:00.000-07:00

I hate to rub it in, but I just love the weather we have been having in T.O.! Warm and sunny, no rain, no snow. People are wearing shorts and sandals and riding their bicycles around town....but not me :( I've been cooped up in the house studying for my biology exam on Wednesday.
Even though I don't eat chicken any longer, that cheddar-biscuit topping sounds good...if it's that easy to make I might start adding it to everything I prepare...cheddar-biscuit carrots and peas sound good :D

2008-04-21T13:00:00.000-07:00

April has DEFINITELY been filled with "wacky weather" - I do hope that you will get to experience "real" springtime weather, very soon!! In the meantime, keep enjoying comforting dishes :0)
