Thanksgiving Fantasia Pie

The food was edible, even very tasty, but I am still proudest of the name:

Thanksgiving Fantasia Pie

0. Preheat oven to 350
1. Frozen pie crust (to fit the leftover theme. This is leftover from the factory.)
2. Leftover Green Bean Casserole (french friend onions and all)
3. Combine 1 & 2
4. Top with shredded carrots <- token new item
5. Add strips of leftover turkey (dark meat), previously removed from carcass (preferably by someone else).
6. Add some milk (wing it)
7. Mix an egg with a little bit more milk (still winging it)
8. Add to proto-pie
9. Add a small amount of italian bread crumbs in a feeble attempt to avoid burning turkey. (no aluminum foil in the house, lack of foresight to put turkey on the bottom. If you read all the directions, you could chose not to make this mistake, but that might remove the "fantasia")
10. bake for 15-20 minutes. Observe that feeble anti-burning measures were unsuccessful.
11. Add frozen biscuits to top (still technically leftovers as they were purchased for Tday)
12. Add strips of Asiago cheese (leftover from something!) to fill the gaps between biscuits
13. Bake another 20-25 minutes
14. Remove from oven, eat

Optional: Inform child that she cannot have more of the pie until she's eaten something other than the biscuit on top. Inform child that the adults are getting more pie (with biscuit on top) because we have no FOOD left, while she has plenty in her bowl. End of meal. No dessert. Early bath. (adults get ice cream and brownies after child is asleep because we tried some of everything and did not whine - shhhhh)

If you had used mashed potatoes for the topping, it would have been a Thanksgiving shepherd's pie! However, it sounds very tasty in its current form. :)

That would have been a good idea, but as we were only three, we did not make mashed potatoes. Instead, we had baked sweet potatoes with marshmallows on top.
