Salmon Pi Pie
A savoury Pi shape pie to celebrate Pi Day.
Although the recipe asks for canned salmon, leftover salmon can be used. If you're allergic to fish use some leftover chicken. Not a meat eater? The pie could easily be turned vegeterian by replacing the salmon with other ingredients such as mushrooms and rice.
