There’s nothing more comforting than a good pie, and this one is not only good but very easy.
I think the secret to a good pie is to have a generous filling. That’s why I’m always disappointed by shop-bought pies! This recipe uses leftover chicken and whatever bacon you have in your fridge – you could even use ham.
