I'm overdue in writing in on this one but I wanted to say that this has become a staple in my house! It's my other half's most requested dish and I've made it for him over and over. I omit the tomatoes but vary the other veggies as you suggest. I often add potatos to make it extra hearty. I highly recommend the recipe to others. This is a keeper!

    This was good, I made 1/2 the recipe for DH and I. I used cauliflower as I had some I needed to use up. I used Cheddar cheese and only the crust on the top. We found it very tasty and will make again using a more colorful vegetable. Thanks for posting the recipe.

    YUMMY!!! Best chicken pie recipe I've done! I used small diced potatoes, carrots, and peas. Added fresh minced garlic, served a side of steamed broccoli. A great meal! Thanks!

    WOW!! This was very rich!! I cut the recipe in half, for two of us. I cut back the calories a bit by not putting a bottom crust on, top crust only. Used an oriental veggie mix, including sliced water chestnuts, which gave it a little crunch. Also used 2 fresh garlic cloves, smashed instead of powder. We enjoyed it but I think if I make it again I would use just milk, instead of cream and half the sour cream and cheese. Interesting but sooo rich!!
