SALMON PIE

Makes 1 pie

1 (8-inch) piecrust

2 tablespoons (¼ stick) unsalted butter or margarine

2 tablespoons all—purpose flour

2 cups 2% milk

1 (7–ounce) can salmon

½ (6–ounce) package frozen peas

2 cups potato chips

Bake the piecrust at 425°G F. until lightly browned. Take out of the oven and reduce the heat to 375°G F.

In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the flour until there are no lumps and add the milk. Stir until thickened.

Drain the salmon and mix with the sauce.

Stir in the frozen peas and pour the mixture into the prepared piecrust.

Lightly crush the potato chips and spread evenly over the salmon mixture.

Bake for about 20 minutes, or until bubbly.

IF YOU DON’T want to bake a pie, you can leave out the peas and potato chips, roll into small balls, and eat immediately. Humans won’t eat it that way.

If you don’t like salmon, and some cats don’t, you can substitute lamb, beef, or tuna. Personally, I don’t like beef except for organ meats, but other cats crave beef. There’s no accounting for taste.
