Corned Beef & Cabbage Pie Recipe

Corned beef and cabbage is the perfect example of a meal that is better than it’s original version when it’s reincarnated into something new.

Most suggestions I receive for leftover corned beef and cabbage is to make it into hash. This year, I decided to make a pie, or reincarnate it into a pie.

Corned Beef & Cabbage Pie Recipe

Ingredients:

Frozen puff pastry- 2 sheets
cooked corned beef
prepared mashed potatoes- 1 lb
sauerkraut- 15 oz.
shredded cheddar cheese- 8 oz.
egg- 1

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Line casserole dish with pastry sheet
layer mashed potatoes, corned beef, then sauerkraut, topped with a layer of cheese
Place second pastry sheet over the top and press the sides to the dish
Brush top with an egg wash (one egg white mixed with a tablespoon of water)
Bake until cooked thoroughly, approximately 35 minutes
