Beef Pot Pie!

Recently, I put together this beef pot pie using ingredients from my pantry.  I didn't have a recipe, I just made it up as I went. I've had a request to share what I did so here it is … 

I had 2 pie crusts in the freezer so I pulled them out to thaw.

While the pie crusts were thawing, I got out my pressure cooker and pressure cooked 2 older and some what tuff T-bone steaks.  When they were done, I removed the meat from the bones and cut it up into approximately 1 inch cubes.  (My home-
canned beef cubes would work for this too, but I wanted to get those T-bones out of my freezer.)

While the meat was cooking, I microwaved a bag of steamable mixed vegetables from my freezer.

I opened a jar of home canned potatoes, drained them and mixed them with the steamed mixed vegetables.

I chopped up some onions that I had leftover over from another meal.  I also had some peas leftover from another meal that I pulled out of the refrigerator.  I added both the onions and peas to the potato/mixed veggie mixture.

Next, I opened a can of cream of mushroom soup, dumped it into a bowl and filled the can back up with broth from the meat.  I whisked this all together really well.

At this point I added salt and pepper to the potato/veggie mixture.

I now had 3 different bowls of ingredients, (1) the meat (2) the potato/mixed veggie mixture and (3) the mushroom soup.

I put a pie crust in the bottom of a pie pan, added about half of the meat, all the potato/mixed veggie mixture and then the other half of the meat.  Next, I poured the mushroom soup over the mixture and topped it with the other pie crust.  

I took a fork and fluted the edges and then took a knife and pierced the top pie crust in several places.

Into a pre-heated oven it went at 425 degrees for 1 hour.

We enjoyed it so much that I'm going to try making one for the freezer.  If it turns out as well, I'll be adding several to the freezer for future meals.
