Tips:
- Use fresh vegetables for the best flavor. If fresh vegetables are not available, frozen vegetables can be used instead.
- To save time, pre-cook the lentils before assembling the pot pie. Lentils can be cooked in a pot of boiling water for 20-25 minutes, or according to the package directions.
- Make sure to season the pot pie well. A good rule of thumb is to add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper per 4 cups of ingredients.
- For a vegetarian version of the pot pie, omit the chicken broth and use vegetable broth instead.
- To make the pot pie gluten-free, use gluten-free flour in the biscuit topping.
