After reading a bunch of notes where people said it was bland, I decided to add more seasoning. When I was cooking the onions, I added salt and pepper, then trued to caramelize just a little bit. After everything was all mixed together, I added smoked paprika, a little garlic powder, and after tasting I added more salt and pepper. I found that I used quite a bit more salt than it calls for, but it wasn't overly salty at all. Honestly I couldn't taste the salt. I didn't add many varieties of seasoning, but I found that it helped loads with the flavor. My boyfriend loves food and is very aware if seasonings and taste, and he was in LOVE with how this recipe turned out. He is hard to please when it comes to food, yet he was begging me to keep this a regular meal. Overall, I was very pleased with how this meal turned out, despite the work it took to get there. I even had leftover filling to eat on its own. Will definitely make two pies next time as there is so much filling.
