Broccoli Emergency

My spinach pie will become broccoli pies due to the broccoli emergency. So far it's delicious. The broccoli needed to be eaten vs the spinach is in the freezer.

The crust was made with my whole wheat sourdough starter, Fleishmann's baking yeast, sugar, semolina flour, bread flour, cornmeal, salt and olive oil.  Knead the dough and let it rest while prepping the pie innards. To the broccoli, garlic, olive oil, stir fry I added raw chopped red onion, kosher salt, and olives.

UPDATE: these were fantastic and very filling as is--with just olive oil garlic salt red pepper and onion.  I brushed the dough with olive oil  and sprinkled the finish with pepper + salt so it was like a pepper biscuit.
