CHEDDAR CHEESE AND MUSHROOM PIE
This is a good side dish but can also be used as an entree with salad and garlic bread. The original recipe called for swiss cheese, but my family likes cheddar better, so it is now Cheddar Cheese and Mushroom pie. Using a food processor for the mushrooms and onions really cuts prep time.

EASY CHEDDAR SPINACH AND MUSHROOM PIE WITH PUFF PASTRY CRUST
This is a perfect luncheon dish! You will need a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate, I used fresh sliced mushrooms in place of canned that I sauteed firstly when I made this, and I also added in a small chopped red bell pepper but that is optional. If you use more than 1 cup sauteed fresh mushrooms I suggest to use a 10-inch pie plate instead of 9-inch and roll the puff pastry out a little larger.

MUSHROOM SHEPHERD'S PIE
It sounds silly, but the one thing I miss most in meatless meals is, well, the meat. That is, except in this mushroom shepherd's pie. It's a hearty vegetarian dish, and I guarantee you won't miss the meat either. -Glen Warren, Keswick, Ontario
