This is a delightful Vegetarian Pie that is packed with various fresh vegetables and rich flavors. It’s a perfect dish for those who love a hearty meal but want to keep it meat-free.
The crust is flaky and golden, made from whole wheat for an added health benefit. The filling consists of a colorful medley of vegetables like bell peppers, potatoes, carrots, and peas, all sautéed to perfection with aromatic herbs and spices.
A layer of pie crust tops it, creating a satisfying contrast with the crisp crust. Baked until the top is lightly browned, this Vegetarian Pie is a feast for the eyes as much as it is for the palate.
It’s a great main dish for any meal and is sure to impress at your next gathering. Enjoy it on its own or with a side of fresh salad for a complete, nutritious meal. Bon appétit!
