If you love comforting dinners like this, then you must try out some of my favorite tried and true recipes like this Soup, Shepherds, and Chicken Pot Pie. They are all so delicious, I have a hard time choosing my favorite!
Turkey Pot Pie
I am a turkey love so if I can find any excuse or way to cook it, then I will! This turkey pot pie is easily one of my favorite recipes to make. Especially if I have fresh turkey leftovers from Thanksgiving or Christmas! I mean you can’t beat a pie that is filled with flavorful veggies and cooked turkey! The recipe is so simple and it’s one that my whole family asks for. Not only do I love that this is easy to make but it’s fast too! It takes less than an hour and that included baking time! While it’s cooking then you should make these mashed sweet potatoes, this asparagus, and this salad to go with it! I love how hearty and filling this pie is. You could even eat it on its own with no other sides and you would get everything that you needed out of just one dish! Try it out this holiday season, it’s a keeper!
Ingredients for Turkey Pot Pie
These ingredients are super simple! You can even leave out the turkey if you want to make this a vegetarian pie! See the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.
Vegetable and Turkey Mixture
Pie crust: You can use a homemade pie crust or a store bought one for this turkey pot pie! Whichever you prefer. Butter: The butter will mix up better if it’s at room temperature. Onion: Dice up your onion into small pieces. Celery: I like to chop up my celery into small, thin pieces. Carrots: The carrots are my kids favorite part! They love cooked carrots!Garlic: The minced garlic really brings out a fantastic flavor. Dried thyme and parsley: I love the combintation of flavors that these two bring. Cooked turkey: Shred up your turkey before putting it in the mixture. Frozen peas: These will be added in very last!
Sauce
Butter: I used unsalted butter. Flour: All purpose flour works great in this recipe! Chicken broth: Instead of water, chicken broth gives a great added (and needed) flavor to the sauce. Nutmeg: A secret ingredient that gives a delicious taste. Salt and pepper: Use these as much or as little as you want, whatever amount you prefer!Heavy cream: If you don’t have heavy cream then you can use half and half instead.
Let’s Bake a Pie!
This turkey pot pie only takes a few minutes to throw together! The hardest part is waiting for it to bake! But it’s worth it so go ahead and give it a try!
Vegetable/Turkey mixture
Sauce
Switch up the meat: This step is easy enough! If you have chicken then go ahead and use that instead of turkey. I do this all year long because chicken is super easy to make and have on hand! Add in some potatoes: Dice up some cooked potatoes and add them into this pie! It gives it a delicious texture!Use more veggies: Corn, broccoli, or any other vegetables that you love and have on hand can be used in this! Make sure that if they are fresh that you cook them to tender crisp before you add them into your sauce mixture!
