“As I was making this I kept thinking wow this is a lot of work, and wondering in my head if it would really be worth it, and doubting that it would. But I'm here to tell you it is worth every bit of work and all the dirty dishes. This was so delicious and warm” — a cook, 4.0★
“As others have said, the flavors in this pie are amazing. It is sooo delicious. But it IS too salty. I wish I had read the reviews before trying. Lesson learned. I will definitely make it again with less salt and I’m sure it will be perfect. It did take a lot ” — a cook, 4.0★
