Prep time: 30 min Cook time: 45 min Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 package pre-made pie crust (includes 2 crusts)
  • 2-3 medium potatoes cut in ½” pieces
  • 3-4 Tbsp butter
  • ¼-½ onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • ½ small head of broccoli, cut into small florets
  • ½-1 cup green peas (frozen or fresh)
  • 3 Tbsp flour
  • ½ cup of milk (or more if needed)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • Pepper to taste
  • 1 pinch nutmeg (optional)
  • 3-4 large handfuls of shredded cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, etc.)
  • 1 beaten egg + 1 tsp water

Preparation

  1. Defrost the crusts for at least 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Blanch potatoes in salted boiling water for 1-2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  3. Heat butter on medium high. Add onions and sauté a few minutes. Add carrots and sauté a bit more. Add broccoli and sauté a bit more and cover for a minute to release the liquid. Stir in green peas.
  4. Sprinkle flour over vegetables and stir until flour dissolves.
  5. Pour milk over vegetables and stir until sauce thickens. Add more milk for a thinner sauce. Stir in potatoes.
  6. Add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste.
  7. Remove vegetable mixture from heat and fill crust halfway. Sprinkle with one or two handfuls of cheese. Fill crust to top with vegetable mixture and add one or two handfuls more of cheese.
  8. Cover with second crust and pinch to seal. Poke holes in top of crust and brush with beaten egg mixture.
  9. Bake at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes until the crust is nice and brown.
