🍴 Recipe Tips

This hamburger pot pie tastes fabulous as is but if we want a little "something extra" to add into the pot pie to make it more filling, we often add in drained and rinsed canned potatoes. We add these in right after everything else has cooked and just before we let the mix simmer and thicken before topping with the crust and baking.

When trying to get the pie crust on top, working quickly is of the essence as the crust softens as it warms, making it harder to maneuver. Usually, I try to push the edges down into the pie using a butter knife, but curling the edges to look more like an actual pie crust can be done as well. Whichever you prefer.

Check out how to make ground beef pot pie with these simple step-by-step instructions:

3. Stir in the mixed frozen veggies.
