VEGETARIAN POT PIE WITH PUFF PASTRY CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 1 1/2-quart souffle or other baking dish with cooking spray.
• Melt butter in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat until bubbly. Add onion and cook until it begins to turn translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to soften and release a little moisture, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir in Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, sage, paprika, and cayenne. Stir in spinach and parsley; cook until spinach is just wilted, about 1 minutes. Add flour and stir until flour is coated in butter and seasonings; continue to cook and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in frozen vegetables and vegetable broth; bring to a boil. Cook until mixture begins to thicken, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in nutritional yeast.
• Pour mixture into the prepared dish. Place puff pastry sheet over top, allowing it to drape over the sides of the dish. Use a fork to poke several holes in the top of the pastry, then spray with cooking spray. Place the baking dish on a sheet pan.
• Transfer to the preheated oven and bake until the top is nicely browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes before serving.

VEGGIE POT PIE WITH CORNMEAL PIE CRUST

Steps:

• For the crust: Combine the flour, cornmeal, and salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse just until it resembles coarse crumbs.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and 2 tablespoons ice water. With the processor running, drizzle in the yolk mixture. The dough should just come together. If it looks dry add more water, up to 4 tablespoons.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead until it comes together; it will be stiffer than a regular pie crust because of the cornmeal. Divide into four pieces, press into discs, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the filling: Toss the potatoes, yam, parsnips, celery and mushrooms with 4 tablespoons oil.
• Season with salt and pepper and spread evenly on a baking sheet. Roast, tossing once halfway through, until golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. You don't want to cook these all the way though since they will cook more in the pot pie. (They should be al dente, but starting to get some color.)
• Combine the flour and remaining 4 tablespoons oil in a saucepan over medium heat and cook until smooth and bubbly like pancake batter, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the mushroom broth. Simmer until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season to taste and remove from the heat.
• Add the roasted veggies to the mushroom broth along with the peas, thyme, rosemary and sherry vinegar. Divide the filling among four 8-ounce ramekins.
• Remove the dough from the fridge and roll each into a 5-inch disc. Wet the rim each ramekin and lay a crust over the top. Poke each 5 or 6 times with a fork and place in the oven. Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes.
