I had to make Medieval food for my son's school project. This recipes comes from 1390. Both recipes came out very well, so I thought I would share! It's very tasty and I thought it would be good for brunch, with a beef dish as a side, or if made with vegetable stock as a vegetarian main dish. Portabella mushrooms would make it "meaty" without being so. As for baking time, since the ingredients are precooked, I checked the crust for doneness and when the filling was bubbling so I'm not exactly sure.
