Pizza/Flatbread & Greek Flavors… sounds like a great evening of food for us!

… no matter which way you make it, it is going to be good!

I grew up and never really liked Pot Pie most of my life (not sure if it is the peas – this recipe doesn’t use them, if you like ’em then feel free to use ’em). Knowing how much Rich loves Pot Pie though, I have been working on making versions which I like. This one fits the bill & is so incredibly adorable in its individual servings (or you can make in one big dish if you want too).
