Aldi Recipes: Vegetable Pie Recipe

It has been a while since I have shared an Aldi recipe here at the Aldi Spot, but the other night I had a fantastic dinner, and I just have to share the recipe with all of you. I have not used this vegetable pie recipe (vegetable quiche) in a long time, but since I was able to get cheap feta cheese at Publix last week, I knew I had to make it.

The flaky pie dough recipe that I always used has gone lost in our last move, so I searched allrecipes.com for the best and most similar flaky pie crust recipe.

Aldi ingredients make this vegetable pie recipe very frugal. The ingredients used to make this vegetable pie was either bought on sale at Publix, bought at Aldi or from my own garden.
