Italian Pot Pie

I love pot pies! This Italian pot pie is not your normal pot pie, but it is so tasty!

Italian Pot Pie

I noticed that it is National Grilled Cheese Day on April 12th. I had a grilled cheese recipe all ready to go for this post. But when I was looking at the pictures of the grilled cheese, I decided that they were not good enough for the blog. So, right now I am wishing that the pictures would have turned out; it would have been the perfect post. Oh well, maybe next year.

My favorite pot pie until now has been chicken pot pie and loads of vegetables. I don’t make enough that is for sure.

Of late I have been thinking of pot pies and how I could change them up a bit. I also love Italian sausage, it is always my favorite topping when it comes to pizza. That is when it hit me, Italian pot pie. Loads of Italian sausage, peppers, diced tomatoes, onions, and garlic all wrapped up in a flaky pie crust.

Italian Pot Pie

When I first started thinking about this Italian pot pie, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to make the crust with pizza/bread dough or if I should go with a traditional pie crust. I love the traditional pie crust when it comes to the traditional pot pie, so I decided to stay true to making a pot pie and go with the pie crust.

As always things can be changed out. If you don’t like certain ingredients in this recipe you can change them out to what you or your family enjoy. Personally, I would have put mushrooms in my Italian pot pie, but I am outnumbered by the people who don’t like mushrooms in our house.

    Holy cow! This pot pie is calling my name. Right now. I love Italian food, and my wife is half-Italian, so yeah…Italian food is pretty popular in our house. I’m guessing this pie wouldn’t stand a chance around here. I can’t speak to the grilled cheese photos, but these pot pie photos are awesome, Dawn! 🙂
