About

It's almost cinematic! A cobbler hot from the oven, cooling on the windowsill. But what's this? Instead of a fruit filling, this is a savory, scrumptious meal just waiting for everyone to sit down and enjoy? Well then pull up a chair! Dinner Cobbler has the buttery crust of a dessert cobbler but the creamy filling of a pot pie, loaded with hearty mushrooms and meaty ham as well as your favorite garden vegetables. You might still be tempted to steal the Dinner Cobbler right off that windowsill like rascally schoolchildren just so you don't have to share!
