Chicken pot pies

My kids love when I make a pie with pastry crust, as they use the left over pieces to decorate the tops of their pie, lots of fun and laughter when cooking dinner!

    This may be a dumb question, but what do you serve these pot pies on? Do you put the little soufflé dishes onto a regular plate? I’d be worried that fiddling with the soufflé dish might break the plate.

      I let them cool a little as the pie is really hot and I don’t want the kids to burn their tongue. I then put the dishes on the dinner plates to protect the table.
