Easy Chicken Pot Pie

A couple of notes:
*the recipe calls for buttermilk. You can use regular milk with about 1 tablespoon of vinegar added. This will sour the milk (yes it may even have some lumps in it. I promise it is ok!)
* I used canned peas not frozen but both work
*I use a smaller dish it is a 10x10 we like to crust to be thicker when I make it when we are going to have gust over I make it in a 9x13 pan and make the crust recipe again by half (1 ½).
This does not change the cooking time.
Enjoy!

Two quick comments:

1) I forgot to mention the vinegar in milk trick for the recipe below - so THANKS for putting it in yours.

2) Instead of cream of chicken soup, I make a white sauce and flavor with chicken boullion. Cheaper and it tastes DIVINE. You can also do "rue cubes" by mixing flour and butter, scooping them with a melon baller and freezing them. Just add to milk for rue.

Okay - enough from me. I think I'm making this recipe for dinner tonight!!
