Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.

2. 2

   Place squash and potatoes on the prepared baking sheet.

3. 3

   Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Set aside.

4. 4

   Heat olive oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until onion is translucent, about 7 minutes. Add flour; mix thoroughly. Cook, stirring constantly to prevent burning, until a thick paste is formed, 2 to 3 minutes.

5. 5

   Pour broth into the onion-flour mixture. Whisk vigorously until mixture begins to thicken and comes to a boil, about 7 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme. Pour in water; reduce heat to a simmer. Add the baked squash and potatoes; cook over medium heat until fork-tender, about 10 minutes.

6. 6

   Add frozen vegetables to the broth mixture. Cook until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour mixture into a large baking dish. Roll out the pie dough to fit the baking dish and lay it on top; make a few cuts in the dough to allow steam to escape.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven until filling is bubbling and crust is browned, about 30 minutes.
