This pie is something that my mom makes for us every year. She doesn't use a recipe, she just has it all in her head. So I did my best to get it all written down for you to enjoy.
It's a simple recipe with basic S&P for seasoning. It easy. You can make this even easier if you use pre-made pie crust. But if you know me, you know that I love to make a yummy pie crust. I have included that recipe below for you. My kids love the pie crust recipe, because I don't use any egg so they get to play & eat the left over dough. Perfect recipe for one of those rainy, cold, fall days that you just need a little comfort of home to serve up to your family.
