Ingredients
  

  • 2 frozen store bought pie crusts I use one rolled up and one already in the pie pan to make it super easy!
  • 1 lb bag of frozen mixed veggie foursome peas, green beans, carrots, corn
  • 1 packet vegan gravy mix
  • 1 1/4 cup oat milk plain, unsweetened
  • 1 package vegan chicken cut into cubes I use lightlife strips

Instructions
 

  • If using frozen pie crusts take them out of the freezer 3-4 hours before making this recipe and allow to thaw. I use one rolled up pie crust and one that comes already in the pie pan. You can find vegan pie crusts at most grocery stores but I got mine at whole foods, just look for no lard or butter. Make sure they are completely de frosted when you use them or else they will crack.
  • Pre heat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Heat up a fry pan on medium heat on the stove top and start cooking the chicken until golden brown. Add in the frozen veggies and cover with a lid. Cook for a few minutes just until they are defrosted, careful not to overcook them.
  • In a small mixing bowl whisk together the oatmilk and packet of gravy mix until its completely dissolved. Pour in the oat/ gravy mixture into the veggies and chicken and stir until it thickens. Once it thickens turn off the heat. If it is too thick add 1 or 2 tbsp more oat milk for a more runny gravy.
  • Pour the veggie mixture into the pre made frozen pie crust pan. Carefully lay the rolled up pie crust on top. trim away any excess pie crust. Use a fork to press the edges of the pie crust together. Slice a couple slits into the top so the hot air can escape while baking.
  • Bake for 30- 40 minutes until golden brown. Let sit for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

To make this recipe super easy I use frozen store bought pie crusts. I use one rolled up and one pre made in the pie pan. 
Instead of vegan chicken you can try using cubed tofu, tempeh, seitan or mushrooms.
Other vegan brands of chicken you can try are the Tofurky ones, Daring frozen chicken strips, or Gardein cutlets cut into cubes.
