Nuna Pot Pie, submitted by
Michelle1968. Being vegetarian I cannot vouch for the deliciousness of this recipe, so if anyone dies from this, it's not my fault.
No, actually, I've heard this is a great recipe and can't wait to hear about people's attempts at this one. Who knows, Hubby-Wan may make this for himself sometime!!
Best of luck!!
