If your looking for something new to make for dinner with leftover chicken or turkey, here's a great recipe. I made this for dinner tonight and it was a big hit! I didn't have all of the exact ingredients so I just improvised--but I don't think you can go wrong if you add what you like. I didn't have any water chestnuts or french style green beans (I used regular cut green beans, canned mushrooms, and leftover chicken) it was still very tasty. I also left out the bell peppers. When I was done mixing everything together, a pie plate wasn't big enough so I used an oblong casserole dish and made the lattice crust over it. The end result was delicious! Give this one a try--I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Begin by cutting pie crust dough into 1/2-inch strips. Arrange half the pastry strips lengthwise. Gently bend back every other strip and lay a new strip over it crosswise. Straighten the bent strips and soon the over-under basket weave will being to show.
