Chicken Pot Pie

My very favorite meal is a homemade chicken pot pie. I have not had a decent chicken pot pie for years. That was until a few weeks ago. I decided to purchase a box of the gluten free pantry FRENCH bread and Pizza Mix.. I baked it and it was so good. I had to add extra salt, though.

I was eating out with some girlfriends, coffee at our local coffee shop, and I brought along a warmed piece of my new bread with some butter and jam. I was saying how it was very dense and soft and rich tasting when my closest friend remarked that it would make an excellent dinner of gravy and turkey for my teenaged son who is always very hungry. I had just been telling her about a funny incident when he was so hungry after school that I had given up, driven him to the nearest Marie Calender's and let him order as much food as he needed to fill up. One of the meals he'd ordered was a chicken pot pie. I really wanted some.

So, after a "duh" moment... I realized I could make a chicken pot pie for myself. I'm eating my second pie right now (these are single serve bowls). I am in heaven.

Could you post your recipe for chicken pot pie. I would love to make individual ones and freeze them for the times I don't want to cook. Thanks.

Ditto! I have been hungry for anything with gravy and considered trying to make meat pie type things, with pie dough wrapped all around the filling, but I think I could get the same effect with just the crust on top. Pleeeease! I'm sure I could figure out the filling, but tell us about your crust.

Oh, sure. Like I said, I found that I really enjoy the Gluten free Pantry French Bread and Pizza Crust mix. I prepare it following the bread recipe. I use Kinik all purpose flour to help handle the very gooey mixture once prepared. It's not to be rolled out. I simply take a large spoonful of the dough (it must rise for 40 minutes prior to using it) and use my fingers to smooth it out on top of my individual serving sized pies.

I use the one crust method for my pie.

Everyone has a recipe they will prefer for the contents. Mine is simple, but I really enjoy it. I found a bouillon that I like. I suggest you use your personal favorite if you want to follow my recipe. I use a veggie bouillon that is gluten free and has a lot of flavor.

I prepare boiled chicken. Pull apart the meat. I use about three cups of chicken.

I prepare two cups of bouillon. I add two cloves of minced garlic and 2 carrots, two celery stalks and broccoli to the boiling bouillon.

I put three tbs of olive oil in a deep dish frying pan. I add half of a large onion.

I drain the bouillon into a measuring cup.

I take 1 1/2 cups of my bouillon and add it to my onion, leaving behind, for now, the chunky veggies.

I reserve 1/2 a cup of bouillon and add to it 2 tbs of corn starch. Whisk. Add to your onion which should be in a deep dish frying pan as I said.

When thickened, add the veggies that were being reserved.

Next, I add the chicken. I stir all together for a few minutes.

I pour my mixture into single serve, oven safe baking dishes.

Top with the amount of dough you need to cover the mixture. It bakes very well in my oven at 350 for 30 minutes. It tastes as good as ANY pot pie I can recall from my gluten days. I am never left feeling deprived.

Prior to finding a crust that I enjoy for this pot pie, I always used this recipe over rice. It is delicious over rice. Very nice on a chilly evening.

While I typed this recipe, I was eating my pot pie. I can assure you that it is very good. It is the perfect crust, in my opinion.

mmm, this has always been one of my fave meals (we grew up on the frozen kind!!)

I was thinking...could this be premade then frozen? like the storebought ones? i'd love to do that for my days off from the kitchen :P

      Based on those results alone, it’s not possible to say you have celiac disease. The test that is usually most specific for celiac, tTG-IgA, is negative in your results, and the endomysial antibody (EMA) is also negative, which generally argues against active celiac disease.

      Since you compromised the validity of the antibody testing by experimenting with gluten withdrawal ahead of the testing, you are faced with two options: 1.

      Need advice for some relief!

      Hi Kayla Huge sympathies. I was diagnosed in December, after 8 months of the most awful rash, literally top to toe. Mine is a work in progress. Im on just 50mg dapsone at the moment but probably need an increased dose to properly put the lid on it. As you have been now glutened, I wondered whether it might be worth asking for a skin biopsy to finally...

      Test interpretations

      I had been eating reduced gluten until about 3 days before the test. I did realize that wasn’t ideal, but it was experimental to see if gluten was actually bothering me. One slip up with soy sauce and it was quite clear to me that it was, lol.

      Test interpretations

      Based on those results alone, it’s not possible to say you have celiac disease. The test that is usually most specific for celiac, tTG-IgA, is negative in your results, and the endomysial antibody (EMA) is also negative, which generally argues against active celiac disease. However, your deamidated gliadin IgA is elevated, and your total IgA level is also high, which can sometimes affect how the other antibody tests behave. Another important factor is that you were reducing gluten before the test, which can lower antibody levels and make the results less reliable. Because of that, many doctors recommend a gluten challenge (eating gluten regularly for several weeks) before repeating blood tests or considering an endoscopy if symptoms and labs raise concern. It would be best to review these results with a gastroenterologist, who can interpret them in context and decide whether further testing is needed.

      Since you compromised the validity of the antibody testing by experimenting with gluten withdrawal ahead of the testing, you are faced with two options: 1. Reintroduce significant amounts of gluten into your diet for a period of weeks, i.e., undertake a "gluten challenge". The most recent guidelines are the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least two weeks leading up to the day of testing. Note: I would certainly give it more than two weeks to be sure. 2. Be willing to live with the ambiguity of not knowing whether gluten causes you problems because you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out and we have tests for it. Celiac disease has an autoimmune base. NCGS does not. GI symptoms overlap. In the early stages of celiac disease, other body systems may not be showing stress or damage so, symptomatically, it would be difficult to distinguish between celiac disease and NCGS. Both conditions require elimination of gluten from the diet for symptom relief. Some experts feel that NCGS can be a precursor to celiac disease.

      Possibly. Your total IGA (Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum) is actually high so you are not IGA deficient. In the absence of IGA deficiency, the most reliable celiac antibody test would be the t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA for which your score is within normal range. There are other things besides celiac disease that might cause an elevated DGP-IGA (Deamidated Gliadin Abs, lgA) for which you do have a positive score. It might also be of concern that your total IGA is elevated as that can indicate some other health problems, some of which are serious.  Had you been practicing a gluten free or a reduced gluten free diet prior to the blood draw? Talk to your physician about these things. I would also seek an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel to check for damage to the villous lining, which is the gold standard diagnostic test for celiac disease.
