How to Make

  • Step 1: If you are making pie crust from start, try my recipe or my sister Lauren's in my recipes.

  • Step 2: Preheat oven to 425 degrees, preferably convection oven.

  • Step 3: Saute onions and green peppers, add ground beef and brown. Drain grease.

  • Step 4: Meanwhile, cook mixed vegetables and drain.

  • Step 5: Add paprika and brown gravy mix to meat mixture, stir well.

  • Step 6: Stir in milk, add vegetables, potato, and bouillon.

  • Step 7: Simmer for 5 minutes or until gravy thickens.

  • Step 8: Taste and adjust seasonings.

  • Step 9: Pour into bottom crust, seal with top crust and brush with egg white. Cut vent holes (I make pretty leaves).

  • Step 10: Bake until top is nicely browned.
