Chicken Pot Pie

Not sure what you are going to do with your left-over turkey after Thanksgiving? Substitute shredded turkey for chicken!

Since you are probably exhausted from doing a seemingly endless pile of dishes, this pot pie recipe is super simple and uses only 1 pot. Most chicken pot pie recipes I found called for using pie crust – which makes a lot of sense – but I LOVE crescent rolls! Growing up, crescent rolls were a staple and often fought over at the dinner table – we would shove them down as fast possible so we could get more! Crescent rolls add a great buttery fluffy crust vs flaky, more dense pie crust.
