My Yummy Chicken Pie - Simple but yet tasty!!

I did not ever thought that I can make a chicken pie... hahahaha...

Well, basically, as you all know, I had just started my baking journey this April... So far so good, and all the recipes I tried works wonders as they are...

My Yummy Chicken Pie

These chicken pies consist only of chicken, potatoes & onions. Sounds boring isn't it...? After it was being baked, I thought, I should have added some carrot, so that the colors will be even better... But my thoughts came in way too late... hehehehe.....

I would say this chicken is definitel very different from the usual ones. As the ones we will buy is with the crust on top. But mine is just filled with lots of ingredients and coated with parmesan and cheddar cheese.

I hope you will like the pie as much as I did. I had given some pies to my friend, and she said it was tasty!!! Even her mum said my pie was great!!!

So have fun trying out this chicken pie:)
