Hi Folks,

I'm having a pie night next week and i'm planning on doing a steak and guiness pie, however as one of my friends is a veggie, I need an alternative. I was thinking of mushroom and leek? But some other interesting combo ideas would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

You could try a veggie crumble - like a pie but with an oat / cheesy topping instead of pastry ?

I made a pie that was chopped up veggie sausages, mushrooms and leeks in a bechmel sauce with a good blob of wholegrain mustard - it was lush.

Cheese and onion pie is always a winner.

Or if you want to be a bit fancier, you could have a go at Mr Ottolenghi's immense caramelised garlic tart. It's ace.

I love a blob of wholegrain mustard in a pie. I always put some in my chicken, mushroom and leek pie.

Mr Ottolenghi is great for veggie dishes that impress. His pea and carrot salad goes down a treat in our house when we have guests in the summer... http://heavytable.com/ottolenghis-carrot-and-peas/

Thanks for all your great ideas, I'll give then a think. Espresso, that tart is lovely, I made it for her last time and the non veggies were scoffing it aswell! I love ottolenghi, his restaurant at Islington is fab, not so keen on the soho one though.

You could do a sort of garden pie:

http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/7...garden-veg-pie

Like this or with puff pastry on top or a very similar St David's pie with leeks and carrots and broccoli or whatever

The there's Simon Rimmer's mushroom and stilton pie:

http://www.goodtoknow.co.uk/recipes/...nd-stilton-pie

And I've seen in a magazine a Mary Berry recipe of a filo pie with aubergines. Can't see it online but I could copy it out for you.

There's pithiviers:
http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/4...eese-pithivier

Coulibiac:
http://www.unclebens.ca/en-ca/Recipe...?RecipeID=2391

or spanakopita
http://greekfood.about.com/od/pansiz...panakopita.htm

And my Aunty Vi's very tasty cornish pasty recipe:

I just leave out the meat and perhaps add cheese.

Mushroom and leek suet pudding:

I had a roasted butternut squash, sweet potato and goats cheese pie, which was very tasty.

I'm veggie and my favourite is the cheesy leek and potato pie from the BBC goodfood site (I'm on my phone so can't add a link, but it's easy to find on the site if you search). It's really easy to make and so yummy.

I wouldn't say no to any of the above suggestions and I'm not even a vegetarian.

I have a lentil pie on my blog but it is a bit time consuming for just one person, I guess.

What I really, really love is this cauliflower flan
