Chicken, or in my case Ham pot pie

I am a very picky eater, and this pot pie is so delicious, I dare you to not like it.  It is a little labor intensive, but totally worth the love.



Chicken/Ham pot pie
 Ingredients
1 lb meat of your choice, cubed
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup frozen peas
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp celery seed
1 can chicken broth
2/3 cup milk
2 9 inch pie crusts

Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
In a saucepan combine meat carrots and peas.  Add water to cover and boil for 15 minutes.  Remove from heat and drain liquid.  Set aside.
In a pot over medium heat cook onions in butter until soft.  Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed.  Cook until flour is well mixed.  SLOWLY add in chicken broth and milk.  Simmer over med heat until thick.  Remove from heat and set aside.
Line pie plate with 1 pie crust.  Add meat/veggie to bottom of plate, add hot mixture over top.  Cover with other pie crust, pinch closed.  Cut 3 slits in top to vent air.  Place pie plate on a cookie sheet lined with foil- to catch drippings.  Bake 30-35 minutes.  Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
