I love the idea of impossible pie.
You used to find Bisquick recipes for all kinds of impossible pies. This one is even better than any of those. It’s a recipe from Rose Murray’s new cookbook 125 Best Casseroles and One-Pot Meals.
Here is what Rose says about her impossible pie recipe:
“When you think there’s nothing in the house for supper, or when relatives suddenly appear for Sunday lunch, here’s the answer. The flour mixture in this vegetable-packed dish magically forms a very thin tender base for its zesty custard filling. Serve with chili sauce or bottled salsa and a cabbage-carrot slaw.”
I’m giving this one a try for sure. Leave your comments below.

Note:
For added color, use choped red pepper instead of the green pepper, or mix a variety of pepper colors. Add a bit of chopped hot peppers if you really like it spicy.
