On monday I made Mrs. C’s Pot Roast for dinner and last night I used the leftover pot roast to make the most glorious puff pastry beef pot pie. It’s the best one I’ve ever made and I knew I just had to share the recipe.
Comfort food, you just can’t beat it. Especially on a cool and crisp fall New England evening. This recipe, it’s a keeper. We loved it and I think you will too.
So here’s to fall, and all the yummy foods that go along with it. 😉
Have a great day everyone, stay warm.

Puff Pastry Beef Pot Pie
Ingredients
- 4 cups leftover Mrs. C’s Pot Roast {about 1 lb}
- 8 ounces fingerling potatoes, cut into 1” pieces
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
- 1 {14 ounce} can of corn, drained
- 1 {14 ounce} can of carrots, drained
- 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
- 3 cups beef gravy
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or chives for garnish {optional}
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Place potatoes on a lined baking sheet and toss with olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper. Bake for 20 – 25 minutes or until baked through.
While the potatoes are in the oven, chop up your leftover pot roast into bite sized chunks and toss in a 9 x 13 baking dish.
Add corn, carrots and peas. Once the potatoes are done cooking, add those as well.
Pour 3 cups of warm beef gravy over the beef and vegetables and mix the gravy in with a spatula so everything is coated.
Roll out the puff pastry dough giving it an extra ½ to fit across your baking dish.
Place the puff pastry on top.
Whisk together the egg with the milk and brush a little egg wash on the puff pastry.
Bake until the pastry is nice and golden, about 25 to 30 minutes.
Sprinkle with fresh herbs and serve.

Looks so good! Do you make your own beef gravy? Can’t wait to try this.

Yes. I used the leftover juices from the post roast the night before + a little water and flour to thicken.
