#CartonSmart Chicken Pot Pie Recipe! #sponsored

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Carton Smart for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you’re looking for a fast and easy way to make yummy Chicken Pot Pie you are in the right place. I recently started using Pacific Foods Organic Chicken Simply Stock in any of my recipes that calls for chicken broth. Why?

I recently started to use cartons rather than cans.. If you have read one of my other posts you already know I’m excited to be sharing products packaged in Tetra Pak cartons with you. If I can do my part to help make the world a cleaner and better place for us to enjoy while we are here, and eventually leave behind to our children, I am going to do what I can.

I recently started substituting Pacific Foods Organic Chicken Simply Stock or the traditional canned chicken broth, and I have been pleasantly surprised with the results. Not only am I helping do my part, these cartons have several other great benefits, such as:

70% Paper
Renewable Resource
Harvested from regrown trees
1/3 less than cans.
Space savers
Look nice
Unique packaging process helps to preserver that flavor & nutrients without all those preservatives.
And more, learn more, and Be Carton Smart

I have already substituted Pacific Foods Organic Chicken Simply Stock in my chicken noodles soup, and I recently decided to give it a whirl in my super-duper easy chicken pot pie recipe, and it turned out fabulous! If you love chicken pot pie here is a recipe worth trying.

Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

1 Carton of Pacific Foods Organic Chicken Simply Stock
1 cup of milk
1 – 12 ounces package of mixed veggies (thawed)
1 ½ cubed or shredded chicken
1 egg
1 cup of biscuit making mix

Directions

Preheat oven to 400
Combine Chicken Stock, ½ cup of milk and cooked cubed or shredded chicken in a 9 inch pie baking pan
Next you will combine the milk, egg, and baking mix, and spread the batter over the chicken mixture.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the topping is cooked completely and golden brown.

You can get a whole lot more than just chicken stock to help you with your recipes! Learn more at Be Carton Smart.

I have to try it. I love that their unique packaging process helps to preserver that flavor & nutrients without all those preservatives. Thank you for your review and sharing your recipe.

Saturnella January 8, 2014 - 8:13 pm

I think I'm going to try out their pumpkin puree the next time I make a pumpkin pie!

tamra64 January 8, 2014 - 10:20 pm

Wow so glad you did the homework for me. I have often wondered about using the carton version of items. I am so not used to all this new stuff. I normally send the hubby to kfc if the have the chicken pot pies but, if I win a new appliance no matter what it is my very first meal will be using your recipes from above. I have been eating chicken and turkey pot pies for over 40 years now but they weren't the healthy ones I'm sure. Thanks

holly polson January 8, 2014 - 10:27 pm

thank u I cant wait to make this I appreciate all your hard work

Bridgette Friedman January 8, 2014 - 10:30 pm

I had never heard of being carton smart!! Thanks for teaching me another way to do our part and much easier to recycle. Can tetra paks be put in the normal cardboard recycling?

Deborah D January 9, 2014 - 9:21 am

This looks so good!!! I am going to make this!!! I agree with you about recycling and leaving the world a healthier place for the next generation.

md kennedy January 9, 2014 - 10:15 am

So weird - I jut picked up some Pacific broths at my grocery store yesterday. I LOVE them, not only what is inside but the packaging - so much better in so many ways than cans. I didn't know they have other products, though - I'll have to look for them.

lisa January 9, 2014 - 11:37 am

I prefer cartons over cans myself. We have been recycling for years. Even down to the paper towel roll.

rebeka deleon January 9, 2014 - 1:26 pm

I have always wanted to make chicken pot pie! we haven't even eaten the frozen ones in so long but I bet fresh is so much better! We always have so much chicken.

M.Clark January 9, 2014 - 8:03 pm

The cartons that Pacific Foods use to package their products are better for the environment than cans. Yet another reason to switch to Pacific Foods. Thank you!!

Shannon January 9, 2014 - 9:24 pm

This sounds really good and you are right, food from a carton always tastes better than out of a can..thanks for posting!!!

ANN*H January 9, 2014 - 11:09 pm

We love chicken pot pie at our house and this recipe sounds so simple and easy. I will make them here at home. Much cheaper than buying the expensive ones from the store. thanks for the recipe -but you didnt tell when to put in the veggies in

Stephen January 10, 2014 - 5:19 am

I like the recipe and my wife loves pot pies. So I sent it to her!

neenz87 January 10, 2014 - 6:22 am

You know, chicken stock is not available in my country!. It comes in cubes but not in tetra pack..

Mary Rogers January 10, 2014 - 10:16 am

I make a similar recipe but I just use the pillsbury pie shells instead of doing it with the biscuit mix. is theere a certain brand you use?

Sally January 10, 2014 - 5:05 pm

This sounds really quick,easy and tasty! I like the whole idea of using cartons it's awesome to use the least amount possible! Thanks Jenn!!

pollylee January 10, 2014 - 10:03 pm

This recipe sounds like it is easy to make and does sound delicious. Thanks for sharing it with us!

BobbiJo Pentney January 11, 2014 - 10:33 am

Thanks for the recipe, my son bought me a pie maker for Christmas (cooks in 10 min) this is very helpful.

RANDY FULGHAM (@moooondog) January 11, 2014 - 10:41 am

i think i would like this -thanks for sharing..!!!

Marcia Lee January 11, 2014 - 3:57 pm

I'm all for not buying things in cans, or plastic for that matter. And I want to preserve flavor & nutrients without all the preservatives. So thank you for the information about Pacific Organic packaging.

sandy weinstein January 11, 2014 - 5:51 pm

when i was little chicken pot pies were my fav....whether store bought or home made....and my mom was a great cook...i like their soups.

krystel January 11, 2014 - 7:29 pm

the pumpkin puree pie

Jennifer Hiles January 11, 2014 - 8:04 pm

That does sound super easy and super yummy. Now I want Chicken Pot Pie!

Riffat Saeed January 12, 2014 - 10:15 am

Thanks for sharing & appreciation for your hard work

Tina F January 13, 2014 - 12:09 am

I have never used the cartons I always freeze my broth from cooking a chickden on the rotisery or bowling chicken BUT I think I should try the carton

Carol S. January 13, 2014 - 1:23 pm

Ooh interesting. Wish you had a picture of what the dish looks like after cooking. Recipes are always great along with visuals :)

Shelly Johnson January 14, 2014 - 9:09 am

We tried a chicken pot pie recipe a few weeks ago and it was great except my kids weren't fans of the frozen veggies. It gave it a weird taste. I'm thinking about trying out some fresh steamed veggies next time. Worried they might get mushy, so I'll have to play around with it a bit, but I'm going to do this one instead.

Jo-Ann Brightman January 14, 2014 - 10:07 am

I have tried to use more cartons lately in order to be more ecofriendly. I have found that the ingredients taste better , but I don;t know if it is the company or the packaging, perhaps a combination of both. I like easy pot pie recipes like this one.

Kendra C January 14, 2014 - 10:19 am

Thanks for the review and the recipe! I will definitely have to try it. I've always used pie crusts for our Chicken Pot Pies and I'm intrigued to try one made w/ bisquick. I also am intrigued to research more on cartons vs cans. I'm ashamed to admit I'm not too informed on these issues/movements and need to research more.

lisa January 14, 2014 - 11:24 am

I have never tried a home cooked pot pie. All I've had are those frozen boxed things that taste like cardboard.

stephanie January 14, 2014 - 12:59 pm

You have my mouth watering! I never have tried making chicken pot pie as I always thought it was harder than that to make! Now I think I know what I'm going to try and do later this week!

Lisa R January 14, 2014 - 4:37 pm

I would love to try the pumpkin puree to make a pie sibabe64 at ptd dot net

Briana January 15, 2014 - 2:08 am

I love that these cartons are greener!

nenasinclair January 15, 2014 - 9:06 pm

The chicken pot pie recipe sounds great!

Crystal Brummett January 15, 2014 - 9:37 pm

Thanks so much dear.. My kids will actually eat the chicken pot pie.. so I may just give this a try.. Thank ya :)

Carol L January 16, 2014 - 6:20 am

I love the recipe and will definitely try it. I haven't thought about using cartons versus cans but it surely makes sense. I'll give them a try. Thanks for the post and the delicious sounding recipe. Carol L Lucky4750 (at) aol (dot) com

Tanya Holland January 16, 2014 - 9:23 am

This sounds like a great recipe. My teenage son would love it. I would love to try it.

Martha Boismier January 16, 2014 - 12:31 pm

Stoic Kitty January 17, 2014 - 6:03 am

I have never made chicken pot pie before. I would like to give this a try.

Wanda Bergman January 17, 2014 - 12:17 pm

I love Chicken Pot Pie and always use organic chicken broth, but haven't tried this brand before. I will be looking for it on my grocer's shelves.

Jeri Accardo January 18, 2014 - 11:42 am

i like the cartons a lot better, i think you can actually taste the can on canned goods!!

Chrissy Dear January 18, 2014 - 10:40 pm

I think it is really commendable what you are doing for oour nvironment, for your children and ours. thank you. Btw this recipe sounds amazing! I have always loved pot pies ever since I was a kid. I'm not much of a cook but I would move to try this out :)

tamra64 January 19, 2014 - 7:58 pm

Girl Every time I read this I am dying for a Chicken Pot Pie from KFC. I would love to try the recipe above when I have all the stuff I need. Seems to me you are an awesome cook and I believe you really do make all these recipes. It's a shame you couldn't have a menu on your blog and I could place an order with you and maybe #WhirlpoolUsa could find a way to get it to me-lol

T.E. Lawrence January 20, 2014 - 2:54 am

Thanks for sharing! It's nice to know I can be good to my family & the environment at the same time!

courtney b January 20, 2014 - 11:30 am

wow homemade chicken pot pie- i love the marie calender ones, but never thought to try something like this!

Barbara Mc / Whenihave Time January 20, 2014 - 12:27 pm

This sounds awesome. I am going to have to try it!

Angela January 21, 2014 - 12:32 pm

What a good idea for another small way we can be a little greener. Switching from cans to cartons is a small thing, easily done that can have a big impact. Who would've thought. And thanks for the chicken pot pie recipe.. can't wait to try this.

Jody Arbogast January 22, 2014 - 4:11 pm

I love this recipe. I have my own and it's a can of Dinty more Beef Stew and a pie crust...lol

Sandra Crispo January 23, 2014 - 1:02 am

My husband loves chicken pot pies and even though, as all the kids are gone, and I do not cook as much as I used to might try this and helping the environment is always a good idea, thanks!

cats_2_catsjl January 24, 2014 - 12:36 pm

yum this sounds so good

Gail Williams January 24, 2014 - 6:14 pm

After reading your post I have decided to be more carton smart for the environment. Thanks for the great recipe.

krystel January 25, 2014 - 9:14 pm

Sounds delicous although i never had itr before but would like to try it someday

Cassandra Davis January 25, 2014 - 11:31 pm

Mmm the chicken pot pie has my mouth watering, thanks!

Germaine January 27, 2014 - 12:04 pm

Chicken Pot Pie has always been my favorite.

Sandra Beeman January 27, 2014 - 2:05 pm

I very much like the idea of using Pacific Chicken Broth in a carton. I'm not sure we have this here in the northeast. I love chicken soup but what really caught my ete was the pumpkin carton.

thomas ticknor January 28, 2014 - 7:57 pm

Loving all the carton smart recipes, especially this one. I just love chicken pot pies.

lisa January 29, 2014 - 12:09 pm

I have never been a pot pie lover. My husband loves them. I'll have to try this recipe. Thanks.

mysweetiepiepie January 29, 2014 - 4:02 pm

This sound super easy and yummy - just my kind of recipe!

melisa January 30, 2014 - 1:38 am

We actually tried this, the change from the leading brand of non-organic stock to the organic is a little different at first, but you quickly get used to it.

Chrystal Thurston January 31, 2014 - 8:52 am

This one sounds great, I love trying new recipes! I made one pot pie recipe using refrigerated pie crust would that be ok?

M.Clark February 15, 2014 - 9:06 pm

Chicken pot pie is a great comfort food, I enjoy the chicken pot pie that KFC makes.

lisa February 26, 2014 - 5:38 pm

I like chicken and dumplings. My husband made a home made pot pie. It was okay but a bit heavy. These are great products and work well in any dish.

lisa April 2, 2014 - 11:09 am

I've tried this brand to make chicken and dumplings. It has a good flavor.

BILL HOFF June 10, 2015 - 11:16 pm

We are always looking for different ways to prepare chicken!

Heather Pfingsten June 11, 2015 - 12:37 am

I need to work on a roundup of chicken recipes. My freezer is stuffed full of chicken and I am always looking for new ways to prepare it too!

Linda Manns Linneman July 19, 2015 - 8:45 am

This sounds like such a great product. I love chicken pot pie. I will have to give this a try

Edna Williams December 10, 2015 - 9:45 pm

I think I can't wait to try this! Thanks!
