A: Yes. Use low-fat milk or a milk substitute; the bake may be slightly less rich but will still work.
Q: Do I need Bisquick or can I use flour?
A: Bisquick gives the quick crust texture. You could try a homemade mix, but use a tested substitute recipe for best results.
Q: Can I add vegetables to the filling?
