This recipe was way too complicated for me. I ended up giving up and ordering takeout.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my en croute turned out soggy. I think I might have added too much liquid to the filling.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste, but I think it would be easy to adjust the seasonings to suit your own preferences.

I had some trouble getting the en croute to brown evenly, but the dish still tasted great.
