Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have updated the recipe to hopefully clear up and confusion. Enjoy! --Editors of RecipeLion

I wish you all would proofread these recipes using your brain to invision making this yourself. Concur with nabrib 3950425. And, will also add my 2 cents: last line - top with what biscuits? Per recipe, dough has already been rolled out!!!! What a mess - almost as good as the recipes in which aluminum foil is part of the list of ingredients, but never used in the preparation of!

the directions do not make sense. spread what vegetables on top of dough? the veggies and meat a sauce are all mixed together are they not? very confusing instructions. then it says to mix meat with remaining vegetables, but they are already mixed together and simmering!!!please help clarify this
