It need not be elaborate or gourmet, but simply few dishes put together and showcased in an elegant manner – just like this pot pie. Its such a no fuss dish. Easy,pretty quick and an impressive dinner for guests or for any special occasion. Its so grand that it can be your meal to this Holiday season – be it Thanksgiving dinner or Christmas get together.

The other day, I had some guests for dinner. I had had a long day and was not really upto making anything elaborate. But one cannot just serve the guests anything now, can we?

Freezer section housed peas, beans and PUFF PASTRY! Oh yes! Pot Pies Having Puff pastry is always a boon. Its so versatile to allow almost any kind of dishes at short notice.
