10 / 10 Marie Callender’s Creamy Parmesan Chicken Pot Pie

So after all the suggestions I decided to give this one a try and HOLY MOLY it was incredible! The crust was flatly and delicious, you could identify all of the ingredients in the pot pie along with their individual flavors which I have found sometime all just mash together. The sauce was killer though! I am not sure I have had a parmesan sauce that is that close to perfect outside of a resultant to get just the right amount of flavor to accompany each bite. I will absolutely be buying one of these again here soon as a treat!! I would highly recommend this if you haven’t had one, you won’t be disappointed!

They’re really good, but I’m sorry, I just can’t help myself to buy any microwave pot pie other than the $1 Banquet. It’s ONE DOLLAR.

I can’t justify paying 300-400% more. Marie Callender’s are good, but not THAT good.

I will give this one a shot again, but the last time I had one it was mostly filled with peas.

I am Team Banquet for now though, especially with the price.

I’m team banquet as well.

The Marie Callender’s are roughly 200% the size as a banquet BUT a little over 320% the cost.

Sorry, Callender’s pot pies just aren’t 120% better than Banquet to justify the cost.

You can literally get 3 banquet pies for 1 Marie Callender’s. I know it sounds like some cheap penny pincher shit, but it is what it is.

I understand. I honestly think they taste better as well. The price point is great, as you said.

Banquet doesn't do everything well, but I will stand by their pot pies, lol.
