Ingredients

Here's one of Violet Lott's specialties

1 onion
3 medium red potatoes
3/4 to one cup carrots

Chop these ingredients into small pieces and simmer in a small amount of water until just tender. Add 3 cups cooked meat, cut into small pieces (such as leftover roast beef, turkey or roast pork). Simmer until hot. Add 1 cup gravy, salt and pepper to taste and sage if using pork or turkey. Put in 9-by-13-inch casserole dish and put crust on top. Bake at 325 degrees for 30-45 minutes until filling is bubbly and crust is brown.


Directions

Crust: No one really knows how Violet made her wonderful flaky crust. She never measured or wrote anything down, so here's what a daughter does: Combine 2 cups Bisquick, 1 cup milk and 1 egg. Roll out and place over the pie mixture. (Of course, you can make your own homemade crust and make lots of little meat pies just like Violet did.)
