I'm from New Orleans (65 years (though now in Texas, and we used patty shells for or after every major holiday. Oysters, shrimp, chicken, or turkey patties were standard fare. One could purchase them from McKenzie's Bakery all ready baked (no longer in existence. Now, one can purchase Pepperidge Farms patty shells (they're right alongside the puff pastry sheets in the freezer section. Make a roux with green onions, celery, and bell pepper. Use whole milk for the liquid. When thickened to your desired consistency, add the meat and continue until warmed through. Cut the middle from the patty shells, saving the top. Add the cooked mixture to overflowing, and top with the pastry top. What a wonderful second serving of the turkey, etc. Bon appetit!

Buttery crust with tukey & green beans in a mushroom "gravy"...how can you go wrong! We bought "texas muffin pans" and were able to use up all of our leftover green bean casserole and a chunk of our turkey. This one is a keeper!!

Just made this for my husband and I, and it turned out delicious! I added cheddar cheese to my pies as well, and instead of making a top and bottom crust, i just stretched out the dough and folded it over the top to close it up, and brushed some butter on top that i melted with a clove of garlic in a saucepan. I liked it better than the original green been casserole!

I saw this and decided it would be a good way to get rid of leftovers. I just added the green bean casserole and turkey with a small bit of milk. Then instead of using puff pastry, I thinned out my leftover mashed potatoes and spread them on top. Covered it with leftover cheese slices and baked it for 30 minutes. I wasn't there for dinner but there wasn't a scrap left and my teenage son ate 3 helpings. Even my husband who is very picky liked it.

This recipe caught my eye because I knew we'd have leftover Green Bean Casserole. (My husband is the only one who eats it! We, too, mistakenly bought pyllo dough, but it still was delicious! Next time we roast a chicken or turkey breast, I'll have to make the casserole to have this the next day! A HUGE hit with the family! No problem with the liquid levels here. Yummy!

I followed the recipe exactly and the results were perfect. After I made this dish, my husband commented that my cooking level had been taken to a new level. He loved it and is already begging for me to make it again. Guess I will be making this Thanksgiving leftover recipe all year round!

I used a prepared pie shell from the refrigerated section of the grocery. Since the green bean casserole was very moist, I did not add additional liquid - just pinched dough squares into packets and baked on a cookie sheet 20 minutes at 400 degrees. Variations worked well - potatoes/gravy/meat, green bean casserole and anything.

Thanks Sunny!
