A classic savory pie would be chicken pot pie. It’s a pie crust, filled with creamy chicken, vegetables and baked until golden brown. But, how do we change it up so it’s not boring night after night? Well, let’s take the classic shepherd’s pie with mashed potatoes, add meatballs and stuff into that pie crust.

I give you the new classic, the meatball pie.

How to Make Meatball Pie

Change Up This Meatball Pie

If you don’t have the time to make a pie crust, you can also use puff pastry dough. Simply wrap the ingredients in the puff pastry and allow to bake. This makes great hand pies as well.

You can also swap out some of the veggies to use what you have on hand. I normally use frozen for this, but you can use canned veggies, dried veggies, or even garden fresh veggies. If you like potatoes in your meal, simply add a few of those, too. Sweet potato chunks are delicious in this.
