Default TG leftovers - another idea for you

My mom sent me this years ago. Original recipe came from Parade
magazine. I've changed it so slightly but I've always loved it.
Anytime I cook a turkey meal, this is next on the list. In my
world, this is the ultimate pot pie thingie.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Turkey-Yam Pot Pie (recipe altered slightly)

3 1/2 cups cooked turkey meat
2 cups mashed cooked yams
3/4 cup fresh cranberries (cut into halves or quarters)
1 1/2 tablespoons sage
1 1/2 teaspoons thyme
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 cups turkey stock
1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
3 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
salt, pepper (to taste)
1 can Pillsbury flaky biscuits

Combine all ingredients (except biscuits) in a large bowl.
Transfer to a generously greased 9 x 13 baking dish.
Open biscuits and separate, then separate each one in half.
Place the biscuit halves, spaced evenly, on the mixture.
Take a piece of aluminum foil big enough to cover the baking
dish. Either spray oil or rub some on to coat underside of
foil, then cover baking dish with it (tightly around edges).
Poke 5 or 6 tiny slits in foil.

Place in cold oven, turn on to 425 and bake for 40 - 45
minutes. Or use preheated oven and bake for 30 - 35 minutes.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

My only changes to the original was to add one more cup of turkey
meat and I used half of the cranberries called for and also I
reduced the thyme by 1/2 tsp. I've also never added the optional
pecans.

If you try it, do report back. I'd like to hear what you think.
