We make a lot of French dips and always have leftover roast beef. Here's how I put it to good use. For these pies, use any vegetables you like. They're extra awesome drenched in cheese sauce. —Jennie Weber, Palmer, Alaska

1 garlic clove, minced
2 sheets refrigerated pie crust
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
