This feels like a good time to say something profound, which is this: POT PIE is just so good!
It’s rich with lots of layers of flavor, but it’s humble and old-fashioned in all the right ways. It just goes straight to the heart. It is the very essence of comfort food.
And if you cross me on this, I’ll bring you a pot pie to change your mind.
1. Steak and Mushroom Pot Pie
This steak and mushroom pot pie is a seriously hearty dinner that your whole family will go nuts for. It takes a few hours to come together, but trust me, it is so worth it.
We’re talking about an herby, earthy pie with a buttery puff pastry crust that perfectly complements the robust, rich sauce. I can’t even decide which part I love more, the steak or the mushrooms.
Honestly, both are ridiculously yummy.
2. Crustless Rotisserie Chicken Pot Pie Casserole
I’ll be honest, a crustless pot pie isn’t usually my first choice since I have a major love for warm, flaky crusts.
But sometimes, you just don’t want all those carbs, and in that case, this recipe is a total game-changer. It’s made with Panko-covered bowtie noodles, so it isn’t exactly a low-carb dish.
However, it does cut way down on the carbs. And if you skip the noodles and just use the breadcrumbs, it’s even lower!
3. Chicken and Bacon Pot Pie with Bacon Cheddar Biscuits
Pot pies are already so rich and indulgent, but this recipe takes them to a whole other level. I mean, crispy, salty bacon makes everything better and way more decadent!
You have to check out this recipe if you’re looking for a truly irresistible dinner. It’s a total showstopper.
4. Delicious Mini Chicken Pot Pies
It’s way too easy to overdo it with a pot pie, right? Luckily, these miniature muffin pan pot pies are perfectly sized. Each one is just right, and it means you can bring them along to your next potluck.
Of course, what happens when you decide to eat two, or three, or more… well, that’s a whole other story.
5. Biscuit-Topped Chickpea Pot Pie
If you’re still dreaming about that biscuit pot pie but need a vegan version, don’t you worry!
This veggie and protein-packed pie is 100% vegan-friendly and has a hearty base of chickpeas and Russet potatoes.
And those vegan cheddar biscuits on top? They are so mouth-wateringly good. You might just want to save this recipe for the biscuits alone!
6. Creamy Vegetarian Pot Pie
I am a huge fan of puff pastry. And I absolutely adore a creamy bechamel sauce with tender veggies. Put them all together, and I am so on board.
This vegetarian pot pie uses just a handful of ingredients and takes only an hour to make. It’s a simple, super tasty, vegetarian dream come true.
7. Beef Pot Pie
When you want something incredibly rich and filling, beef pot pies are just so hard to beat.
This recipe takes a couple of hours to pull together, but the hands-on time isn’t much at all. And it’s so worth it in the end.
This pie has a beautiful golden-brown crust and is just oozing with a flavorful sauce. And those thick, succulent chunks of beef chuck? Yes, please.
8. 1-Hour Vegan Pot Pies
These one-hour vegan pot pies are a bit lighter than the chickpea version. They don’t have potatoes, but they are packed with all the other veggies. You still get to top them with yummy vegan biscuits, too.
The best part? They are all single-serve pot pies, so everyone gets their own. Just make sure the fast eaters don’t try to steal anyone else’s dinner!
9. Easy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe with Biscuit Topping
Don’t get me wrong, I totally love a traditional round pot pie.
But have you ever tried one with a biscuit topping? Talk about major comfort food! These pies will warm you up from the inside out.
Just picture it: homemade biscuits, tons of cheese, warm chicken, and plenty of veggies. What could be better? You won’t even need a side dish with a main course this amazing.
10. Chicken Pot Hand Pies
Pot pies only have one tiny downside: they aren’t very portable. You just can’t enjoy a pot pie on the go. Or can you? Thanks to this recipe, you absolutely can!
Think of them like single-serve apple turnovers, but savory and completely delectable. These miniature, on-the-go pies also make a spectacular hot breakfast.
11. Cheddar Chicken Pot Pie
Speaking of cheesy, this insanely cheesy and delightfully herby pot pie is another yummy option your family will adore. It swaps the traditional peas and onions for broccoli and cheese.
You still get those juicy chunks of chicken, sweet carrots, and a creamy sauce, but the broccoli and cheese filling takes this pot pie to a whole new level. It’s also a great way to get your kids to eat more broccoli!
12. Cottage Beef Pot Pie With Potatoes And Parsnips
This cozy one-pan meal is so hard to pass up. It features a stout beer sauce, well-seasoned chunks of ground beef, and tons of veggies. The crust is flaky, light, and perfectly golden brown.
Plus, this pie is brimming with sweet and hearty parsnips. I’m a firm believer that we don’t cook with parsnips nearly enough, so if you have some, you have to give this recipe a try.
13. Chicken Pot Pie with Puff Pastry
Here’s another classic recipe for chicken pot pie, but because it uses puff pastry, it takes less than an hour to make. It’s also enough to serve six people, which is ideal for a family feast.
If you’re craving good, old-fashioned soul food, this recipe delivers in a big way. It’s just so good.
14. Chicken Pot Pie Casserole (EASY Chicken Pot Pie)
This one isn’t quite as quick as some others, but it’s still not a complicated recipe to follow at all. It uses a few more ingredients and takes about five more minutes of prep.
And who doesn’t have an extra five minutes, am I right? This is the perfect option if you love herby pot pies with a beautiful lattice top.
