I mean…no…quiche is a custard base with cheese and no top crust. A chicken pot pie uses a roux with no cheese and a top crust.

The top crust is not really that big a deal, but custard vs roux is significant. Also, cheese.

The veggie mixture tends to be very different too, but that is pretty flexible for quiche and I’m sure a quiche with similar veggies to a pot pie would be good, but I don’t think it would be a traditional flavor profile.

According to the way my dad makes “quiche” it’s an ommelette with more cheese than egg set inside of a pie crust.
