Can I make Chicken Pot Pie Croquettes ahead of time?

Yes! You can prepare the croquettes up to the point of baking, then store them in the fridge for a day before baking. For longer storage, freeze them before baking and cook from frozen when you're ready to serve.

Can I use different vegetables for the filling?

Absolutely! You can swap the mixed vegetables for other options like green beans, mushrooms, or even spinach. Just be sure to cook them down before adding to the filling to prevent excess moisture.

How can I make the croquettes spicier?

To add a bit of heat, try mixing in some cayenne pepper, hot sauce, or even chopped jalapeños into the filling before shaping into croquettes.
