Steak & Vegetable Pie - A Meal in itself! Tasted Divine!


Both the filling & pie crust tasted Divine! Cannot begin to describe the mouth watering aroma coming out of the kitchen. Made this over Christmas holiday and froze.  Dish aims to please! Tasty, filling and we still have leftovers! No other food was required to fill our tummies this night!  Definitely a keeper and will be added to our regular rotation.  

Ingredients:
1 premade pie shell
6 T beef broth
½ t dried marjoram
1 clove of garlic minced
pinch of salt
pinch of pepper
2/3 c parsnips, peeled and chopped into ½ inch pieces
1 carrot, peeled and chopped into ½ inch pieces
¼ c chopped onion
1 pkg of refridgerated cooked beef pot roast
½ c of half and half
2 T flour
1/3 c frozen peas

Directions:
Take out pie crust/shell and let thaw as per package instructions
Preheat oven to 400 F
In a large saucepan, combine broth, marjoram, garlic, salt & pepper.  Bring to a boil.  Stir in vegetables, reduce heat and simmer for 10 min.
Remove meat from container, reserving gravy.  Cut meat into ¾ inch pieces; set aside.  In a small bowl, combine cream, flour and gradually stir into vegetable mixure.  Stir until thickened and bubbly.  Stir in meat, gravy juices and peas; heat through. 

Remove from heat and keep warm.

(If you plan to freeze; cool at this point and place in ziplock bag or container for another day)

Remove pie crust from aluminum dish. 
Place meat mixture into empty pie pan.
Place pie crust on top; turning pastry under and fluting at the sides.
Cut small slits in the top to allow steam to escape

Bake uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes or until crust is golden.
Let stand 15 mins before serving.
