It turned out absolutely tasty! One commenter on the original site said that it tasted more like chicken pot pie. I'll agree with that.

When I got to the step about making the roux - melting the butter in a saucepan and adding the flour and other tasty bits - I improvised. I melted the butter in the microwave and added the stuff to it. I didn't have everything ready to go, so the butter cooled a bit. This caused lumps of flour. Next time, I'll have the roux fixin's ready!
My dough balls ended up being slightly over-done, so following the instructions on that is key.
I got about 6 servings out of this recipe. I portioned them out into plastic containers, then popped them in the freezer. My commute is every bit of 2 hours, so I just toss a container in my bag and then put it in the fridge when I get to work and it's thawed enough to reheat for lunch.
Here's the original recipe, from the blog, Her View From Home:
