Pot pie has got to be one of the most satisfying and mouthwatering comfort foods ever created. In this version, we pair goat cheese with Jamaican classics like plantain, corn, and callaloo in a cornmeal-Parmesan crust. We love that it plays on the Caribbean tradition of “one pot” cooking; with savory fillings encased in a pastry crust, it is also a nod to the ever-popular Jamaican patty.
