The Little Pie Maker

Leftover chicken screams for pot pie.

I knew that the frozen pie dough would come in handy.  I used it to make a couple of pot pies with some leftover rotisserie chicken I had.  Carrots, onions, olive oil, but wait I don't have any peas!  I did have edemame (soy beans) though so I threw those in instead.  Milk, chicken stock, thyme, sage, salt, pepper and cornstarch finished out the guts of the pot pie.  The pie dough was cut to be larger than the bowls I was using and I brushed them with egg yolk to give them that golden brown color.

Max, my 6 year old, won't eat a pot pie so I used a new gadget that I got to make him a homemade pizza pocket.

 This Petite Pie Mold is a great little tool to make hand held pies that are savory or sweet.  The outside is used to cut the two sides of the pocket pie.  It even cuts a vent in the top for you.  when you have cut the top and bottom you open up the pie mold and lay them inside and fill it.  Dampen the edges, close the mold and you have a perfect little pie.  For Max, I made a little pizza pie and filled it with marinara and cheeses.

This mold made it all very easy and Max loved the end product.  The mold was easy to use and cleaned up quickly.  I will use this a lot and will have to whip up a few little sweet pies for fun.  If you are looking for a simple little gadget that it is a very reasonable price this just might do it.  Just so you know, I purchased the pie mold on my own and have not been compensated for this review.  The Petite Pie Mold people would be hard pressed to identify me in a line up.
