Pour mixture into pan on top of butter; set aside. Next cook 1 package of frozen mixed vegetables. Add 2 cups of diced turkey, can of soup, can of corn, English peas and small can of potato sticks. Mushrooms are optional, but tasty! Stir together and pour mixture onto batter. Put the majority of the mixture in the middle because it will even out as it cooks and the crust bakes around it.

Dawn,NY (04:17:25) : Easy Jambalya
3 tablespoons peanut oil

4 stalks celery, chopped
6 scallions, chopped
1 28 oz. can whole or crushed tomatoes

3 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 teaspoons Tabasco
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
3 teaspoons thyme leaves (dried)
salt and pepper
2 cups uncooked long-grain rice.
Heat oil in large stock pot. Saut vegetables until they start to go limp. If using raw meat, add at this point and cook until browned. Add tomatoes and chicken broth and any cooked meats and simmer for 30 to 60 minutes, amount of time depends on type and size of meat chunks. Add seasonings and cook for 15 minutes. Add rice and cook for about 20 minutes over very low flame until rice is tender but not mushy.
Taste for seasoning and serve.
The nice thing about this recipe is that only the quantities of liquids and rice are fixed. I use whatever amounts and types of meat and vegetables are around. If adding shrimp, put them in about 5 minutes before adding rice.
Dawn-in-tax-free-NY (04:01:07) : Ideas for Leftover Ham:
Cube leftover ham, add some parmesan, black olives, broccoli,
And some fresh basil.
Prepare cheese tortellini and mix a basic white sauce and add chunks of leftover ham. To make it spicier, sprinkle in some chopped hot pepper or dry chile peppers. If you don't want the fat of a white sauce, saut in some non-fat Italian dressing then sprinkle some parmesan over it.
Chop up leftover ham and add to meatloaf mixture for a little different taste.
Grind leftover ham with sweet pickle, chopped onion, grated carrot, and a little low fat mayonnaise for a unique topping for a lunchtime bagel.
