Ingredients needed to make biscuit topped pot pie.
- Refrigerated biscuit dough. I like larger biscuits such as 'Grands'. Flaky style work well as do buttermilk.
- Chicken or Poultry. Your poultry should be cooked, cooled, and cut into small pieces or shredded.
- Mixed Vegetables. You can use the vegetable of your choice.
- Condensed Creamy Soup. Such as cream of chicken, cream of mushroom, or a combination of soups.
- Milk. For a creamy pot pie, use whole milk.
- Seasonings as desired. While the soup really provide a lot of flavor, you can use additional seasonings as desired.
