  • ⅓ cup diced celery
  • ⅓ cup diced carrots
  • 1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie

  1. In a medium saucepan combine the stock
  2. chicken
  3. peas
  4. celery
  5. and carrots. Bring to a boil.
  6. Mix cornstarch with milk and stir into the stock mixture. Cook stirring constantly for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 1 hour.
  7. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  8. Stir cheese into the filling mixture and pour into a 9-inch pie crust. Top with second crust
  9. seal edges
  10. and cut slits in the top crust. Place on a cookie sheet and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top crust is golden brown.
