Vegetarian Option: Skip the chicken and add extra vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or sweet potatoes for a hearty, meatless version.
Add Cheese: Stir in some shredded cheddar cheese to the filling for an extra creamy, cheesy twist.
Use Biscuits: For a different take, replace the top crust with biscuit dough, creating a biscuit-topped chicken pot pie.
FAQ:
