One year I thought I'd try something different with the leftover Thanksgiving turkey. So after reading various pot pie recipes and consulting with my grandmother, I took all the ingredients I liked, added some of my own touches and created this recipe over 10 years ago. I make this the Sunday after every Thanksgiving and its in high demand. I also save some of the leftover turkey to make turkey street tacos too. That's on Tuesdays :)

  4. 2 cloveGarlic mined
  5. 1 mediumRed onion diced
  6. 5 tbspAll purpose flour
  7. 1 1/2 tspDried terragon.
  8. 2 tspSalt
  9. 1 tspFreshly grinder pepper
  10. 2 cupHeavy whipping cream
  11. 4 cupFat free milk...any milk will do
  12. 1/2 cupAny white wine
  13. 24 ozFrozen bag of peas
  14. 24 ozFrozen bag of crinkle cut carrots

Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    Melt butter over medium heat. Once butter is melted add minced garlic and sauté for 5 minutes, then add turkey and onion. Mix well for another 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Next, stir in flour, terragon, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Add milk and heavy whipping cream. Stir until milk sauce thickens.

  4. 4

    Stir in wine, peas and carrots. Stir until all ingredients are incorporated and warm. Take one of the pastry shells and create bite sized balls for the dumplings. You decide on the size, but not too big otherwise you'll take away from the pie.

  5. 5

    Place 2 of the pie pastry at bottom of baking dish for bottom crust then pour turkey mixture on top.

  6. 6

    Use last 3 pie pastry to create top layer of pot pie. Make sure you seal the edges good otherwise it will leak out while baking. I put a cookie sheet underneath the casserole dish just in case the juices leak out, it will not go to the bottom of the oven and burn.

  7. 7

    Bake at 475 for 45 minutes or until crust is brown.

  8. 8

    Let cool for 10 minutes, serve and enjoy!
