Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie


Add into your crock pot:
4 peeled and diced potatoes
3 peeled and sliced carrots
2 diced stalks of celery
1/2 diced onion
1 cup frozen peas
1-2 chicken breasts (I added mine in pieces and shredded them when it was done, but you could dice them if you prefer that.)

Make a gravy on your stove:

Measure 1 can chicken broth and enough milk to make 4 cups liquid total.

Melt 4 TB butter in the pan
Add 6 TB flour and stir
Slowly add liquid while stirring
Keep stirring and wait for it to boil and thicken.
Add spices to taste. I add plenty of thyme and sage, garlic salt, and pepper.
If your gravy is not thick enough for you, add a mixture of corn starch and water.

Add the gravy into the crock pot and cook on high 4-5 hours. If you prefer not to make the gravy, you could add cream of chicken soup mixed with milk.

Pour over biscuits to serve.
