Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 cups mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, and corn work well)
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 cup milk (or plant-based alternative)
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 store-bought pie crust (or homemade if you prefer)
• 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)

How to Make Vegetable Pot Pie

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the minced garlic and mixed vegetables to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to combine, cooking for 1 minute.
5. Gradually pour in the vegetable broth and milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
6. Stir in the thyme, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
7. Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the vegetable mixture into the crust.
8. Cover the pie with another layer of crust, sealing the edges. Cut a few slits on top to allow steam to escape. Optionally, brush the top with a beaten egg for a golden finish.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
10. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use a mix of fresh and frozen vegetables for convenience and flavor.
• If you prefer a richer filling, consider adding a splash of cream to the vegetable mixture.
• Don’t skip the egg wash; it adds a beautiful sheen to the crust.
• Allow the pie to cool slightly before cutting to help the filling set.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the vegetables for seasonal options like zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
• Add protein by incorporating cooked lentils or chickpeas into the filling.
• Spice it up with a pinch of cayenne or curry powder for an extra kick.

What to Serve With It

• A simple green salad with a lemon vinaigrette.
• Garlic bread or crusty rolls for dipping.
• Sautéed greens like spinach or kale for a nutritious side.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the pot pie in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until warmed through. You can also microwave individual slices, but the crust may lose some of its flakiness.
