Ingredients

Double Pie Crust
2 Tbs. Butter
½ Cup Onions Chopped
1 Cup Carrots Small Diced
⅛ Cup Flour
2 Cups Chicken Broth
2 Cups Potatoes Small Cubed
2 Cups Cooked Ham Chopped Up
1 Cup Cheddar Cheese Shredded

Instructions

Prepare the pie crusts and line a 9-inch pie plate with the bottom crust. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Melt the butter in a pot.
Sauté the carrots and onion just until the onions are translucent.
Stir in the flour to make a paste.
Stir the chicken broth a little at a time, mixing until smooth after each addition until all the broth is incorporated.
Add the potatoes and simmer until the potatoes are cooked through.
Stir in the cheese and ham.
Stir until the cheese is melted and blended in.
Pour pot pie filling into the prepared pie crust.
Top with a top crust and cut a few slits in the top for steam to escape from.
Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 25 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned.
Cool for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

If you wanted to add some frozen peas, you could do so with step 8. I personally like peas, I do not, however like having to pick out peas from my kids dinners. So I don't usually add them.
