Prepare the
no-fail piecrust. Roll out to fit a pie plate. Spoon
the hot mixture into the piecrust. Arrange cheese slice
on top of the meat mixture. Cover with the remaining piecrust.
Pinch the edge to seal and make a small crust. Cut slashes
in the middle with a sharp knife to allow the steam to escape.
Brush the top crust with a little milk. Bake uncovered at
350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes. If the crust browns too
quickly cover it with foil during the last 20 minutes of
baking. Allow the pie to stand for 10 minutes.
