Cornbread Chicken Pot Pie

Now THIS is different, I'm so used to a biscuit topping or a flaky pastry topping when I make pot pie, but using cornbread was completely different and new to me.

It turned out pretty good, I won't say it was a favorite around here but I think that's due to the fact that it was something very different to what my family is used to.

This recipe comes from Gooseberry Patch's 101 Hearty Recipes.
