Picture this. It's the end of my week. I go grocery shopping on Thursdays and... I legit have had nothing planned to cook for the past few days. So, to say that I'm running on fumes over here would be an understatement. I've got pieces and parts of a few different things, but nothing that seemingly went together.

Trying to avoid a trip to the store or fast-food I got to thinking. My initial thought for dinner tonight was to make a quiche since I've got some eggs leftover. But, I also really really really don't want to have my oven on. Much less for an entire hour. NEXT. Being as I had some leftover phyllo dough in the freezer along with a plethora of veggies... I settled on a pot pie!

When in fact, it's just a handful of ingredients (most of which are already in your pantry or fridge) and half an hour to get to this blissful sauce heaven...
