Pizza pot pies are a delicious and comforting dish, but it’s important to be mindful of their nutritional content. Here’s a breakdown of the key nutrients per serving:

What To Serve With It

When I’m making pizza pot pies, I love pairing them with sides that balance out the richness of the dish. A crisp green salad with tangy vinaigrette cuts through the cheesy goodness, or try a Caesar for extra crunch.

For beverage options, I go for something invigorating—sparkling lemonade or iced tea works great, but a cold beer or light red wine hits the spot for grown-ups. Sometimes, I’ll add garlic knots for extra carbs, because why not?

The key is keeping it simple and fun, so you can enjoy every bite without overcomplicating things.
