Gluten-Free Chicken Pot Pie

This hearty dish is the perfect blend of creamy comfort and smart cooking. The cauliflower crust gives you that golden pie-top feel without the gluten, while the rich, savory filling tastes like a hug in every bite. I remember serving this on a chilly night, and it quickly became a family favorite—no one missed the dough!
