 Patty (Missouri) says:
This was so good. I did not have any mushrooms so I omitted them, I did add some frozen corn, green beans and peas (from my garden last summer). I will have to add that I made my own pie crust and this just made this taste so yummy! Everyone went back for a second plateful. Will keep this recipe forever!
