Turkey Pot Pie

I made this for dinner yesterday with some of our leftover turkey. It was delicious! I used half the filling to make 2 pies and froze the rest for another time. 1 pie serves 2 so I froze the other one to have when I don't feel like cooking!

How to Make Turkey Pot Pie

Step-by-Step

1Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
2Saute mushrooms in 2 Tbsp olive oil for 2 minutes. Add onion & celery and continue to saute until onions are translucent.
3Add carrots and 1 tbsp olive oil. Saute 1-2 minutes.
4Add potatoes & remaining olive oil and saute another 5 minutes.
5Add chicken broth & simmer until vegetables are tender-crisp but retain their bright color.
6Whisk half & half and flour together. Slowly add to the broth mixture. Gently stir until thickened. Stir in turkey and frozen peas. Remove from heat.
7Spoon filling into crust-lined dish. (I use a deep individual casserole dish) Cover with top crust. Crimp to seal edges. Cut steam vents in top crust.
8Place pies in oven and immediately decrease oven temp to 375 degrees. Bake until crust is golden and gravy just begins to bubble through the steam vents.
