Cheesy Chicken & Mushroom Pie

This recipe for Cheesy Chicken & Mushroom Pie uses ready made puff pastry & Tyson® Grilled and Ready® Chicken Breast Strips, whole mushrooms, and pre-grated cheese making a really simple dish to prepare.

This fantastic dish is just what you need for those busy school night dinners. Your family will be asking for this creamy, cheesy pie again and again!

I’m always looking for ways to speed up school night dinners.  With homework, bath time and bed time stories, there isn’t always a lot of time for cooking a quick and nourishing family meal, but this recipe keeps things really simple.

What makes this particularly easy is the Tyson® Grilled and Ready® Chicken Breast Strips that I used to make it. Available at Walmart, these come fully cooked and are a super simple way to add flavorful, healthy chicken to your school night dinners. The chicken breast strips are 97 percent fat free and made with all white meat.

Also, when you are buying Tyson® Grilled and Ready® Chicken Breast Strips, you can also do some good for your kid’s school because they are part of the Tyson Project A+™ program. You just clip and collect labels from participating Tyson Project A+™ products, and your school can submit them for $0.24 funding to be used however the school wants. What’s even better is that you can nominate a school through Walmart’s Tyson Project A+™ page to receive $1000 in labels! So when using the Tyson® Grilled and Ready® Chicken Breast Strips, it’s a win -win.  You get a delicious, easy meal and you can also do something great for your kid’s school.

This pie filling only took me 15 minutes to prepare.  I put the breast strips in the fridge to thaw over night so they were ready to use the next day and I also prepared the filling in the morning so all I needed to do before baking was top it with the pre-rolled pastry, add the egg wash and throw it in the oven.  Easy!
