Everybody loves pie!

So I went to my friends for dinner the other night and we had chicken and bacon pie....it's rekindled my childhood love of the chicken pie my Nan used to make and decided I HAD to make it!! It is seriously so simple there's basically no prep involved!

Chicken, bacon and mushroom pie

Diced chicken
Smoked bacon lardons (or chopped bacon)
Button mushrooms
1 can condensed chicken soup
Puff pastry

1. Fry the chicken, bacon and mushrooms until cooked and put into the pie dish.

2. Pour the soup into the pan with a can of water and bring to the boil and cook. I decided against taking a picture of the soup as it's not the most appetizing thing to look at!! Then pour the soup over the filling.


3. Cut the pastry to fit on top the pie dish.  I had a bit left over so stuck a few extra bits on top! Pop it in the oven and cook for 20 mins.

Its so easy to make and easy to change to make whatever fillings you want! 

You could use condensed mushroom soup,  add extra veggies in....you can also change the pastry used on top. 


My Nan always did shortcrust pastry on top which was amazing!  Or you could do the hairy bikers tangle topping with scrunched up filo pastry!
