Jack Skellington Pot Pie

I live and die for Halloween dinners! I love being creative with food! I love theme dinners! I love Kodiak Cakes! Introducing Jack Skellington Pot Pie.......

You can use any Chicken Pot Pie recipe that will fit in a pie plate but here is my recipe of the filling and Kodiak Cakes crust topping. If you don't already know by my other recipes, I don't always measure my ingredients on most recipes but I'll so my best.

Filling:
2/3 cup chopped carrots
2/3 cup celery
1 small onion
2 small peeled diced potatoes
1 TBSP minced garlic
2/3 cup peas
2 - 12.5 oz canned chicken, drained
2 - 15 oz chicken broth
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
salt, pepper, thyme, & parsley, to taste

Saute carrots, celery, onion, potatoes, & garlic until almost soft. Stir in flour. Add in peas, chicken, broth, & milk. Incorporate and put on simmer will veggie cook through and you prep the crust. Add in seasonings. Preheat oven to 400 F.

The crust I use is from Kodiak Cakes
It says it makes 2 crusts but I use this recipe to make one because I like the crust thicker.
I roll it out into the size circle I need and then put it in the fridge for a few minutes to firm up so it's easier to cut out the face shapes. Then take it out, carefully cut out your face, and lay it over top your filling, sealing the edges. I lightly put aluminum foil on top just so the edges don't burn. Let it cook until golden brown or about 20 minutes.

Happy Halloween Dinners!
