Notes

  1. You can use homemade, frozen or refrigerated pie crust for this recipe.
  2. We use a deep dish for this so when we use refrigerated crust we roll it out slightly so it is longer and easier to flute.
  3. You do not have to sauté your onions if you do not want to, they will soften up slightly when baking.
  4. You can easily. switch up the filling in this recipe to suit what you like we often make this Sausage version.
