Pot Pie From a Can: I Love It

published by Holly J. Harrington on Jan 8, 2009

This is a description of a Pot Pie for those winter months.

Heat the oven to 350* and cook for about 50 to 60 minutes or until top is golden brown.  Depending on your oven.

Ingredients

  • 1 double pie crust (Any body’s will do or make your own.)  
  • 1 small can of corn or peas
  • 1 small can of green beans
  • 1 small can of carrots
  • 1 large can of whole peeled potatoes
  • 1 can of gravy enough for a 9 or 10 inch pie (For whatever like chicken, beef, pork or whatever meat you are using.)

Enough leftover meat be it beef, chicken or pork to cover the bottom of the pie crust.  Cut up the way you like it.

Method

  1. Put the bottom pie crust in a 9 or 10 inch deep dish glass preferred and you can poke a few holes in it if you want.
  2. Layer meat on bottom.
  3. Layer your vegetables in whatever order you like.  Make sure you slice your potatoes.   If you don’t think the vegetables are enough or enough of what you like buy an a couple of extra small cans.
  4. Once everything is layered pour your gravy over the top. 
  5. Put the crust on top.   Cut a few holes about four slits are ok.  For a nice golden brown crust I use a pastry brush and I brush a little milk over the top.  If you don’t have a pastry brush a clean paper towel dipped in a little milk and brush across the top of crust will do.  Does not need to be saturated just a little layer across the top.  Also recommended by most is an egg white beaten and then brushed across the top of the crust.

Let stand about 10 minutes or so before serving if you wish. 

Hope it comes out enjoyable as it has for me.
