Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1/2 pound Italian sausage
- 1/2 yellow onion diced
- 1 carrot finely diced
- 1 stalk celery finely diced
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon salt plus more to taste, if necessary
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes I used a store-bought bagged variety
- 1 (15 oz) box refrigerated pie crust should contain 2 pie dough circles - thawed according to box directions
Instructions
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Once hot, add in beef, sausage, onion, carrot, celery, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme.
- Cook, breaking up the beef as you go, until the meat is no longer pink and the vegetables are tender.
- Drain off an excess grease, if necessary.
- Sprinkle the meat and veggie mixture with flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
- Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and broth, then simmer, if necessary, to thicken.
- Stir in mashed potatoes, then taste and re-season, if necessary. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F, then place one of the pie crusts into a 9 inch pie plate.
- Gently press the crust into the bottom and up the sides of the plate, fill with the meat mixture, then top with the other pie crust; the crust should lay directly on top of the filling.
- Wrap the excess top crust under the edge of the bottom crust and press the edges together to seal. Flute the edges, then cut slits in the top to vent.*
- Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the crust is cooked through and golden brown; cover the edges with foil if they start to get too brown.
- Remove pie from oven and let sit for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving!
