Family and guests rave about this hearty, comforting potpie and its light flaky crust. The "secret" crust ingredients are Parmesan cheese and instant mashed potato flakes. It's a great make-ahead dish. On busy days, I prepare this entree in the morning and just bake it in the evening. -Cheryl Arnold, Lake Zurich, Illinois

Very easy to make. I tried to layer cresent rolls over the top for the crust and it worked fantastic. But the original with the instant potatoes works great also. Personally I would cut but the tyme to 1/2 tsp or use fresh. But spices are usually to tast for different people. Good recipe will make again.

I made this again with a double crust on top and chicken (I used rotisserie & boiled chicken) and it was great! It was much better with only half the thyme also. I think when using the 15oz of hash brown potatoes it absorbs some of the soupy moisture so next time I'm going to add another 1/2-1 extra can of cream of mushroom soup and extra evaporated milk (or heavy whipping cream since that's what I usually have on hand). Great potpie!

Very good! I didn't have evaporated milk or half and half so I substituted heavy whipping cream for both and it was great. My husband doesn't like a ton of veggies so I only used 1/3 pkg of veggies and added 15oz frozen hash browns (partially thawed them first). It was really yummy with potatoes in it. Next time I will cut the amount of dried thyme in half because it was quite strong. We loved the crust! Next time I'm going to try making a double crust on top so it's extra thick and yummy. I'm making this again tonight!

I have not tried this but it sounds really good, however we like crust on top and bottom, question could you do this with reciepe without it being soggy. I would love to try it that way--any suggestions??
