Recipe Introduction

Smoky ham is a great choice for a pot pie because it comes fully cooked. This reduces the cooking time from the more common chicken pot pie, allowing you prepare and bake the pie in less than 35 minutes. With its abundance of meat, vegetables and flaky pastry topping, it makes a complete meal.
