Chicken Pot Pie Might Become Chicken Pot Mush

I have made chicken pot pies in the past and they have always been good. But this time, it seems the pie crusts did not fit the round dish I use for these. I mean, the mixture should be good, and the crusts should brown nicely, but I wasn't able to put it together like a traditional pot pie.
Oh well. I can't imagine it will taste bad even if it won't hold together like I am used to. Hmm. I might have to shop Goodwill and see if I can find a smaller "pan."
Either way, that's what we are eating tonight regardless how it turns out. What is going on your dinner table tonight? @FourWalls, I already know it's your elbows.

No, it’s true: one night he said, “what’s on your dinner table tonight “ and I replied, “My elbows.”

Why should it not taste good? It is the ingredients finaly that make a dish

@porwest My mother used to say if you have attempted to make dosa but the batter is thin then it will be pancakes - both are tasty

Beef stew, since I had fake beef (Boca burgers) for lunch.

@porwest — Boca burgers are the better veggie burger (store bought) to me. Morningstar Farms, as I remember them, tasted like bland veggies, not meat.

@FourWalls I have seen them in the stores. Just can't bring myself to pay the price for them.

We just snacked this evening, before and after shopping. I am finishing a hummus on whole wheat English muffin and chowing down on Harvest Snaps black bean snacks with mango, chile, lime flavor. Homemade crust or store bought? Are they a victim of "shrinkflation" ?

I made chicken pot pie once. It didn't hold together well but I don't know what I did wrong. When Pretty told her mom the pot pie split open in the oven, her mom called it "slops" and told Pretty not to eat any... *sigh* It tasted fine so I ate it by myself. For a while after that, if I started a new recipe, Pretty would ask if I was making slops again. It really pissed me off. I started asking if she'd prefer I make broccoli instead. She hated and still hates broccoli. She learned not to call food I made slops!
I hope your pot pie tastes fine.
I made four cheese noodles with ground beef and fried potatoes.

I love Marie Callender pot pies, but I know homemade is better.

Well it doesn't have to look good to taste good. It'll do.
