]]> Chicken Pot Pie is a classic dish, and it makes a hearty meal when you need to feed a family. But sometimes it might get a little monotonous, or you might not have chicken in the house. Luckily there are lots of other pot pies you can try out.

Herring Pot Pie

If you’ve ever seen the film Kiki’s Delivery Service, you probably remember the herring pot pie that Kiki must deliver in the rain against all odds. The pie looks delicious even animated, and luckily a few people have created recipes so that you can eat it in real life. Some recipes use pumpkin, while others require a mash-potato base. Either way, it’s delicious and quite a departure from the classic chicken.

Vegan Pot Pie

Even though chicken pot pie is named for its meat, its main characteristics are really that the ingredients be cooked in a broth until thick and then covered in a crust. That means it’s not too hard to turn this vegan by using vegetable stock, seitan, or whatever you like instead of chicken, and lots of veggies.

Guinness Beef Pot Pie

In an ultra-rich, ultra-original take on the classic dish, this is essentially beer-based beef stew covered with a crust. It’s also got mushrooms and other veggies that soak up all that beefy goodness.

Rainy day in London so decided to cook my Guinness & Beef Stew. The smells coming from the stove make me love rainy Autumn… Here's the recipe. INGREDIENTS 25g butter 150g bacon lardons or pancetta 300g shallots, left whole 1kg stewing beef, cubed 400g mixed wild mushrooms 1 litre stout, such as Murphy’s or Guinness 1 bouquet garni Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper METHOD Preheat the oven to 160°C/ 325°F/gas mark 3. Put the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat. When the butter has melted add the bacon, followed by the shallots. Cook until golden brown and transfer to a large casserole. Add the beef to the frying pan, season with salt and pepper and cook until browned all over. Transfer to the casserole. Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook for two minutes. Season to taste and transfer to the casserole. Return the frying pan to the heat and use a whisk to scrape off all the bits stuck to the bottom of the pan (this is where the flavour is). Pour in the stout and continue to whisk for another minute; this process is known as deglazing. Pour the stout and pan juices over the beef and vegetables in the casserole. Add the bouquet garni, cover the casserole and cook in the oven for two hours. Check the seasoning, take out the bouquet garni and serve with creamy mash or roast potatoes.

Beef and Guinness Stew

This is a traditional Irish stew, straight from the emerald island, a place that knows what it’s like to cook in rainy weather. If you don’t have Guinness available, any stout would do, but make sure to get beef suitable for stew: lean, trimmed, and cubed.

Italian Short Rib Stew

While we don’t think of comfort food as healthy or diet-appropriate, this recipe fits nicely as part of a Mediterranean Diet.

Vegan Stew

For many people, it’s hard to imagine a satisfying and comforting soup without any beef or animal products, but vegetables can be transformed into a delicious stew without much hassle. Make sure you have a variety of mushrooms and beans, and some (vegan) red wine, and you’re well on your way!
