This week’s Sunday Supper Ingredients are root vegetables like carrots, potatoes, parsnips, etc. I’m bringing you a recipe perfect for leftovers.
One of my family’s favorite meals is my roast. It’s full of carrots and potatoes and whole roasted garlic cloves. Sometimes we have leftovers, and often when that happens I love to make Hearty Stew Hand Pies.
One of these is a perfect grab and go meal that fills you up. My husband loves to pop one in the microwave and take it to eat on his way to work.
I do this both for roast and for short ribs. I just recently served my family short ribs for dinner, and with the leftovers I made about half a dozen Hearty Stew Hand Pies.
I use a 6-inch circle cutter, and with the refrigerator pie crust, I can cut 4-6 circles out of one. Then, I cut 4-6 more from the second pie crust in the package.
Then, I shred the leftover meat and slice up the veggies and put about 2-3 tablespoons in the center of each pie circle.
I wet the edges to seal another pie circle on top and then crimp the edges with my fingers.
I place each pie circle on a piece of parchment paper on the cookie sheet and cover each one with an egg wash so they’ll bake up nice and brown.
Then, I bake for about 15 minutes at 450 degrees.

I love that you turned such a classic comfort food into a hand pie! It’s like an individual pot pie, which sounds SO good!
These would be great to freeze for easy weeknight meals on the run!
I’m totally making these the next time I have any beef stew leftover!
Sounds great with shredded meat instead of ground meat!
What a yummy way to repurpose stew!
Yum! Hearty and warming!
Oh.my.word. These look so comforting and amazingly good!! I love handpies, but I’ve never made them. I’ll have to start with making yours.
Looks delicious!
