This meatless Monday superstar comes together quickly and is inexpensive as well. My 4-year-old always asks for seconds! You can substitute any canned or frozen beans for the canned lentils in this easy vegetable potpie. We also like using frozen edamame. —Maggie Torsney-Weir, Los Angeles, California


Test Kitchen Tips
  • For a smoky Spanish flavor, use lemon pepper and smoked paprika instead of the quatre epices.
  • You can prepare the filling up to 24 hours beforehand, or double the recipe and freeze half the filling for another day.
