Turkey and Dumplings Pot Pie

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 :)

Cooking Instructions
- 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
Next, stir in flour, terragon, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- 3
Add milk and heavy whipping cream. Stir until milk sauce thickens.
- 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
Place 2 of the pie pastry at bottom of baking dish for bottom crust then pour turkey mixture on top.
- 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
Bake at 475 for 45 minutes or until crust is brown.
- 8
Let cool for 10 minutes, serve and enjoy!

Left Over Turkey-pumpkin Pot Pie Left Over Turkey-pumpkin Pot Pie
I LOVE to mix things up in my kitchen. This recipe came about one night when I was thinking how I can remake my thanksgiving leftovers. Staring in my fridge I saw my left over turkey, small ball of leftover pie crust dough, and pumpkin pie. I also have this awesome left over toasted spice rub mix I had used on some butternut sqush, why not pair it with pumpkin? So I thought, pot pie!, and who doesn't love a good pot pie. Using the turkey and some other fresh ingredients I had, bam! , I had just whipped up this amazingly flavorful pie with a beautiful complimentry nutty flavor of pumpkin and spice. Was a complete hit in my house, and I hope it will be at yours too.Left overs are great for a pot pie. This idea can be used and transformed with just about anything you may have left over! If I didn't have leftover pie crust dough, I probably would have used stuffing or mashed potatoes. jbaby -

Lower Carb Turkey Pot Pie (biscuit style topping) Lower Carb Turkey Pot Pie (biscuit style topping)
This is a recipe modified from the one I found on the Carbquik (Tova Industries) website.I only say "lower Carb" on this one because I do use peas and carrots, which some people don't eat on a low carb diet, generally the keto folks, but I'm not keto so I eat them in moderation.I made this a one pot meal by using an oven safe sautee pan. It turned out so good and the family gobbled it up.#August2026 StephieCanCook
