I love a good savory pie: Chicken Pot Pie, Mexican Pie, or recently I saw a post for a Guinness Shepherd’s Pie. My version sadly does not contain Guinness but I bet it would be delicious! I mean adding Guinness to my brownies turned me more into a sweet admirer (I wouldn’t say lover just yet). But try out this classic dish!
