This Potato Crust Mushroom Pie is a unique twist on traditional savory pies — instead of dough, the base and crust are made from mashed potatoes, creating a soft yet sturdy foundation. The filling is a rich blend of mushrooms, onions, and carrots, all topped with melted cheese and fresh dill. The secret? Baking the mashed potato crust first so it firms up enough to hold the hearty filling.
