This recipe came after I had made the stuffing for Stuffed Peppers, and of all things, forgot the peppers! I looked at what I had on hand, and saw the trusty Bisquick box in my pantry and tweaked the recipe for my own pot pie! My partner has tasted it and it passed!

Ingredients

4 cups water
1 pound italian sausage (sweet or hot depending on taste)
1 cup ricotta cheese, part-skim
1 cup tomato sauce (i make my own, but your favorite jar will work just fine!)
1/2 cup cooked spinach (optional)

How To Make stuffed pepper pot pie

Step 1

***This recipe makes enough for two (2) 9 inch pie plates - I usually cook one immediately, and freeze the other. If you're freezing one, cover with the Bisquick, but do not bake before freezing!

Step 2

Heat oven to 400F.
Step 3

Cook rice according to package directions - I used Brown rice which takes a while to cook. Recipe works just as well with Minute Rice.
Step 4

Brown sausage and drain off fat. Combine rice, sausage and remaining ingredients for pie filling.
Step 5

Spray 2 9 inch pie plates with non-stick cooking spray and spread filling in pie plate, and sprinkle with some parmesan cheese, leaving room at the top for the crust.
Step 6

In a small bowl, wisk together Bisquick, milk, eggs, parmesan cheese and seasonings until smooth. Pour over stuffed pepper filling in pie plate.
