My husband and I have been craving a nice homemade pot pie. I looked on line for over an hour before I found one that peeked my interest (and I had all the ingredients on hand) So very glad I did. My husband is the pastry king in the house so he made that and I made the rest. OMG we both love it. EXACTLY the flavour we were looking for.
This recipe makes two potpies, so you can do one meat and one veggie, or you can make one and freeze the other for later. Then you get the best of both worlds – a homemade pie that needs no work except heating up
