We make chicken pot pie from left-over roast chicken and chopped fresh vegetables.
The deli of the grocery in our neighborhood makes excellent chicken pot pies, with chopped chicken, broccoli, carrots, green beans, etc. We pick up one when we don't want to cook. Their salads are also very good.

The Tourtière reminded me of the French-Canadian Christmas Paté de Noel- layers of turkey, chicken, pork, veal (cut from knuckles), mushrooms, in a savory jelly and enclosed in rich glazed pastry. The pork layer is minced with brandy and broth. It is a major project for the family.
Traditionally served at the first feast of Reveillon, following Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve.
