Turkey and Stuffing Pie

Stuffing forms the bottom crust in this tasty turkey pie, and strips of cheddar cheese form a lattice-looking top.

Recipe Ingredients:

1 (16-ounce) package stuffing mix
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 large egg
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 (4-ounce) can mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter
3 cups chopped cooked turkey
1 cup frozen peas
1 (0.87-ounce) package instant brown gravy mix
1 cup water
2 tablespoons chopped pimientos
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
4 ounces cheddar cheese, cut into strips

Cooking Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
2. Combine stuffing mix, chicken broth, egg, and 1/2 cup melted butter in a bowl; mix well. Press over the bottom and sides of a 10-inch pie plate.
