We loved this dish! I didn't have the Italian seasoning so I used a packet of Ranch seasoning and it tasted delicious. Can't wait to make it again.

It was good, but I thought it was a little bland. Also there was too much cream cheese for me. I don't plan on making this again following these ingredients/directions.

This is the best pot pie recipe ever.The zesty italian added just a bit of zip but not too much. Anything made with cream cheese in my opinion is special and I used 1/3 less fat.My family loves this.

Very yummy! This is the only pot pie my family will eat! I made a few tweaks...I used fresh veggies instead of frozen and did broccoli, onion, carrots, and celery (my family hates peas). I use about 2 and a half envelopes of the Italian Dressing Mix - 1 of the Zesty Italian and the other 1 and a half of the regular Italian. I also add some extra garlic and celery salt for more flavor. Sometimes for something different I'll make a Cottage Pie out of the pot pie mix and instead of putting a crust on top, I'll bake mashed potatoes on top - delicious!

I made this with the reduced fat cream cheese so that could make a difference. The pot pie was exactly what I wanted in apperance and texture but I thought the taste was a bit on the sweet side. I was hoping for a more chickeny flavor.

Really liked the twist on a traditional pot pie. I think I might use a little less cream cheese next time though.

I just made this recipe using leftover turkey from Christmas dinner. My husband & son who normally hate this sort of thing LOVED it! My 9 y.o. son says "20,000 thumbs up!" and my hubby says "Yum-Yum for the Tum-Tum!". Needless to say, I will be making this again :)

Good recipe, but I nix the italian seasoning and only add half the cream cheese plus 1 can of cream of chicken soup and a little bit of garlic salt and black pepper to taste. I also find adding a bottom crust makes leftovers a lot easier to take to work the next day!

I have never really gave anything a bad review on this site, but I thought this was terrible. I had made two for the sake of saving time and I sincerely doubt we will ever eat the one we put in the freezer
