from the Better Homes and Gardens Casserole Cook Book 1967..7th printing...my daughters loved this meal growing up...i think it's why they love peas now...my oldest requested it from me recently...so this is for her. I love this because it's comfort food and quick to make...i started to use frozen peas and carrots mix & canned chicken for speed since i was a single mom...working long hours...but if i did roast chicken with veggies on sunday i could make this on monday after work quick too

3 tablespoons enriched flour

2 medium carrots, cooked and cut in thirds
1/4 cup onion, chopped
2 tablespoons pimentos, chopped (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (7 1/2 ounce) can refrigerated biscuits
