3 chicken boullon cubes
1 cup cubed carrots
2 cups cubed potatoes
1 cup frozen corn1 stick of butter
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp black pepper

deep 9 inch pie pan
two 9 inch pie crusts
Directions:Heat oven to 415. Put chicken in saucepan, covered with water (about 4 cups), add bouillon cubes and cook until chicken is done. ***Save the water because you use this as the chicken broth. While chicken is cooking cover vegetables with water in saucepan and cook until tender. While both of those are cooking, spray your pie pan with Pam and cook crust for about 10-12 minutes. When vegetables are done, drain and pour in crust. Melt butter and add onion, cook until tender. Add flour and whisk constantly to make a paste. Add pepper and celerty seed. Slowly add chicken broth and milk. Mix until thick and pour over vegetables in pie pan. Add your top crust. Make your edge pretty. Whisk an egg and brush over top. Cut pretty slits in crust and cook for 25-30 minutes. You need a pretty deep 9 inch pie pan.
