Beef Pot Pie

 Do you watch Sister Wives? I sure do. Christine has always been my favorite, and the fact that she now has a cooking segment with TLC is my favorite. Here is her Beef Pot Pie recipe which I made for the family and we loved it.





Beef Pot Pie

  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 tbsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 1/2 lbs stew meat
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 5 small yukon gold potatoes, unpeeled, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 3 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 packet brown gravy mix
  • 1 box double pie crusts, thawed

Combine the flour, garlic salt, and paprika in a large bowl. Pat the beef dry with paper towels and toss in the flour mixture to coat well.

Heat an instant pot on the saute setting and add 1 tbsp of the oil.  When the oil is hot, add half of the beef and brown on all sides.  Removed to a plate and repeat with the remaining oil and floured beef.

Once all of the beef is browned, add it back to the pot with the onions, potatoes, carrots and any remaining flour in the bowl. Mix the water and gravy packet until smooth, pour over everything and mix well. Seal the instant pot and set to High Pressure for 35 minutes and let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes after.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Unroll the pie crusts and place 1 in a pie plate. Spoon in enough filling to fill the crust. Unroll and turn the other pie crust onto the pie and crimp the edges together. Cut 4-5 small slits in the top crust with a paring knife. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Let cool on a a rack for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Petty

This evening our sweet little Petty went to Kitty Heaven.  The cancer had spread to her brain, causing her to have odd behaviors.  The tumor in her mouth, or the side of her face, had pulled down her ear canal on that side and caused her eye to twitch, which the vet said caused constant vertigo.  The cancer had also spread to her intestines causing her to loose control of her bowels and bladder and she was bleeding internally.  While she didn't appear to be suffering, there is no way that she wasn't.  We sadly had to have her put down. Yes, I'm meowing at her in the video.  Sometimes she would answer when you would do that, but she would always come to you. She was such a cute little love bug.  I named her Perpetua, from the Bridget Jones movies, and later we shortened it to Petty, just because we are a family of nicknames.  I remember when we first got her and she was so tiny.  She looked like a lemur and she was all black with a cou...
