Ingredients you need to make pot pie pasta:

This recipe uses pantry staple ingredients and is a good freezer clean out meal too for the frozen veggies stashed in your freezer!

Multiple bowls of different sizes containing vegetables, onions, noodles, butter, and chicken

You can scroll down to the recipe card for the full list of ingredients and measurements.

  • Butter: salted or unsalted butter, either or works!

Ways to adapt this recipe

  • Mix up the veggies! Omit or use different veggies. Broccoli is a really great addition. Mix and match the veggies you love most!
  • Use chicken breasts, chicken thigh meat, or leftover turkey or ham.
  • Switch out the egg noodles for your favorite pasta shape. Like I mentioned above, I haven’t tested this recipe with another pasta shape but I am sure it would work well.

Made this tonight for dinner. Delicious and super easy to do.

Could you make the casserole in the morning and put it in the refrigerator until it is time to cook it?

Haley D. Williams

Love that this is made in a casserole dish. Perfect for serving a large group or weekly meal prep!

Sharon

All the delicious yummy ingredients in a pot pie but easy and convienant to make.

Jere Cassidy

I love pot pie but I never get it right and everything comes out of the pie crust. This is such a good alternative and I prefer the noodles.

stephanie

My whole family really enjoyed this meal!

Krissy Allori

This casserole was seriously good. I had never had anything like it but I will again now for sure. It was also a big hit with my picky kids.

Hi Tawni,
I love your recipes! My 20 year old grandson has lost 40 pounds through exercise and the proper choice of food. No more Pasta and reduce sugar and carbs! Some of your recipies include pasta, cream soup, or dried fruit. I make a pan of 5 energy bars weekly and would like to make the chicken pot pie for next week.
My question is: you have included the “nutrition facts” for the 5 ingredient energy bars (39.9 carbs and 26.8g sugar!) They are delicious but too many carbs and sugar. I am not able to find the nutrition facts for some of your other recipes. Are you including them in all your recipies or am I overlooking them? It would be helpful if you would include this information so we can select the recipies that are low in these item. We have been trying to limit carbs to 55-60 per day. Your advise will be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Sherri

Nice! A classic comfort food with a healthy twist. And I love that it’s a “cook once, eat twice” meal! That is if there’s any left.
