Chicken Broccoli Pies with Cheese

If you are looking for a classic comfort food, chicken broccoli pies are a perfect option. A bit of 2% cheddar cheese makes it even better for you without losing the flavor. I like adding a bit of black pepper to the recipe, but it is delicious as is for the rest of my family. \
