Cheesy Morel Pie image

In Northern Michigan, Morel Mushrooms are a big deal, they are by far the best mushroom I have ever tasted. But if you can't get morels then your favorite mushrooms will also work. This is a wonderfully tasty pie and will be a big hit whenever you make it.

This pie was a bit too rich for my taste. The filling was heavy and the crust was too thick. I wouldn't make this again.

I was a bit hesitant to try this pie because I'm not a huge fan of morels. But I'm so glad I did! The filling was surprisingly delicious, and the crust was perfect. I will definitely be making this again.

I've been wanting to try morels for a while now, and this pie was the perfect opportunity. The filling was rich and flavorful, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I'll definitely be making this again!

This pie was absolutely delicious! I made it for my family last night and they loved it. The morels added a really unique and flavorful touch. I will definitely be making this again.
