Having some leftover chicken from a roasted chicken, I thought a pot pie might be nice. But my head felt its spring, and things should be light and fresh. Why not combine the two?

Using the leftover chicken, I added carrots, peas, asparagus, and a touch of dill……Springtime in a creamy white sauce.
