Add a bit of water; cover and cook until the vegetables are tender but not overdone, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour into the skillet, then pour in the stock. Add the optional nutritional yeast. Cook for a minute or two, stirring constantly. until the liquid thickens.

Step 5

Stir in both the diced and mashed potatoes. Heat through gently. Stir in the seasoning blend, thyme, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the  mixture into the pie crust and pat in.

Step 6

Sprinkle the bread crumbs evenly over each pie, then top with a sprinkling of paprika.

Step 7

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the crust is golden. Let the pies stand at room temperature for 10 minutes or so, then cut into wedges and serve.
