My lovely wife seems to have taken a shine to pie-making, and I must say, I couldn’t be more pleased. I guess she got the message of my website (Make Me Some Pie!).

Above is a picture of a chicken pot pie she made recently.

We’ve settled on a pretty simple butter crust recipe that is delicious and the edge of the crust is so crisp and buttery it honestly reminds me of a Ritz cracker.  This is the pie crust recipe we like: Mom’s Pie Crust (via allrecipes.com)

Making the filling for a pot pie, or any meat pie for that matter, really seems pretty easy. Just make a mixture of meat and veggies that you like and that tastes good & put it in the pie… simple enough!

In this case, she chopped and sautéed some carrots, potatoes, garlic, onion and peas together with some chicken broth. She cooked the chicken separately and then mixed it in with the veggies when it was done.

Then fill your pie, cover it with your top crust and I believe we bake at 425 for 25 minutes and then lower it to 375 for another 25-30 minutes.

Making pot pie rocks as well because it is a good leftover food for work, or for dinner the next day (preferably, as it’s better reheated in the oven).

Below are step-by-step instructions for how you can make smoking areas into pie areas in your community! Thanks to BrandFlakesforBreakfast for bringing this to my attention & thanks also to the clever vandal who did it first.

Step 1: Find a smoking area with a standard smoking sign

Step 2: Strategically place a line that connects the bottom of the cigarette with the smoke puffs.

Step 3: Should there be any wording such as “Smoking Area”, make sure to scratch out “Smoking” and replace it with “Pie”
