They're OK. Good flaky crust but no bottom crust. Maybe I'll just drag a Marie Callender out of the freezer.
The homemade ones are OK, but if I have chicken & gravy in the freezer, I still prefer a Marie Callender stretched with extra chicken & gravy and extra mixed veggies. There's never enough filling to them. I HATE the ones with no bottom crust. It feels as though I've been ripped off. It cannot be called a "pie." I think Swanson (or maybe Banquet) are like that.
I think the crust is the best part of a pot pie, so I agree that no bottom is a rip. My husband doesn't like pie crust **GASP!** so we are a match made in heaven.
I have never heard of anyone not liking pie crust. I'm trying to think of other similar foods to ask how he feels about them, but there really are none. I guess if the crust is soggy (like a microwaved pot pie rather than a baked one), I can understand.
Nah, he's weird. He doesn't like the flaky part or the fluted part on top. Can you imagine???? His loss is my gain, however.
I skip crust on occasion, simply because it is fattening. Tonight we will dine on pinto beans cooked with Itl. sausage, onion and spices, okra, and rice or corn bread.

I always do that when I have Mexican. I get spicy salsa in addition to the regular one they provide and an order of queso. If I just got a salad with the chips & queso, I could make a meal out of it and forego the entree. Those fresh-made chips are so darned good.
