Everyone knows one of the best parts about Thanksgiving dinner is the leftovers. If you’re looking for a great way to turn your leftovers into a meal that deserves a spotlight of its own, this Turkey Pot Pie recipe is the way to go. This so so easy because you use a pre-made pie crust which pairs so well with the leftover turkey, your favorite veggies, and a rich, creamy sauce.
Unbaked pie crusts – Use store-bought crusts to make your life easier. You can find these refrigerated pie crusts near the dairy section, by the biscuits in the pop-open tubes. Each package includes two crusts, which is perfect for this recipe. Turkey – dice two cups of cooked, leftover turkey, or, buy a small turkey breast at the grocery store. Chicken broth – two cups broth, or a couple of cups of water with some chicken bouillon. Oil – I like to use extra virgin olive oil to sauté the veggies. Onion – about a cup of finely chopped yellow onion. Carrots – you’ll want about a cup of carrots, usually two large carrots peeled and diced. But, a handful of baby carrots works great too. Celery – half a cup of diced celery. Salt and pepper – to taste. Flour – all-purpose flour is used to thicken the sauce. Milk – use any kind of milk you have on hand, and keep a little extra to thin out the sauce if needed. Frozen peas – about ¾ cup.
