Vegan Veggie Pot Pie
I was craving pot pie one day, so I threw this vegan version together with what I had on hand. It came out more wonderful than I could have imagined and it's even better the second day. I am not a big fan of complicated recipes, so I tried to keep it as simple as possible. I used a bag of organic frozen veggies to cut down on the work (corn, peas, carrots, green beans).
