Day After Thanksgiving Pie

Day After Thanksgiving Pie

I guess I was ahead of my time (as usual), when I created this Thanksgiving version of Shepherd's Pie several years ago. This photo is from an article in the Bend, Oregon Bulletin with recipes for my Golden Autumn Soup and Day After Thanksgiving Pie. Today you can find many versions of the pie in magazines and on the Internet. I still believe mine is one of the best. Just remember, you can vary this recipe according to what leftovers you have.
