  • Prepare 9 inch pie dish with one of the dough rounds to make the bottom crust.
  • Pour the filling into the bottom crust.
  • Cover with top crust and seal edges. Cut several small vents to let steam escape.
  • Bake until crust is golden brown, about 30-40 minutes.
  • Let rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

If you're in a hurry, this recipe can be made even faster by using 2 cups of frozen mixed veggies in place of the carrots, peas, corn, and celery.
