Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 400°F

  Allow both of the gluten free pie shells to defrost for 5-10 minutes.

  Bake pie shell for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes before filling.
• In the large pot, add enough water to cover the potatoes, and carrots. Bring to boil and then simmer for 10 minutes. The potatoes should be easy to push a fork into.

  Drain, but reserve 1 cup of the water.

  Add the bouillon to the cooking water, cornstarch, and whisk well together to form the broth.

  Add in the pressed garlic, and all of the spices and cook for 30 seconds.

  Add in the prepared bouillon broth. Stir well to combine. Bring to a simmer.

  The mix should start to thicken, then add in the add in the corn, peas, carrots, and potatoes.

  Stir well to combine.
• Pour the mix into the cooked pie plate. Shake to move all the ingredients into place.

  Turn the uncooked pie shell upside down, and pop out of the pie shell. Place it carefully over the prepared pot pie. Seal the edges, and cut off the excess around the edges.

  Bake for 30 minutes.

  Remove and serve. Be careful, the insides are very hot.
• Allow leftovers to cool. Cover and store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
