1 can (about 1 pound) green peas

1 can (4 ounces) pimientos, drained and diced

3 Bake in hot oven (400°) for 20 to 25 minutes, or until bubbly-hot.
4 While tuna mixture bakes, make and bake pastry topping: Prepare piecrust mix, following label directions.
Place on lightly floured cookie sheet on a damp towel to prevent slipping; roll out to a shape about 1 inch smaller than top of baking dish.
