   4                    frozen pie shells -- thawed
   1 1/4  pounds        pulled pork
   4      medium        potatoes -- diced
   1      large         onion -- chopped
     1/4  cup           rutabaga -- diced
   1                    carrot diced
     1/2  tablespoon    sage
     1/2  tablespoon    thyme
                        salt and pepper
