Add some vegetables and a bought pie crust to your leftover turkey for this quick and easy Turkey Pot Pie. I find pot pies on the menus of many restaurants. They're warm and inviting and a great way to use leftover turkey. This pie can also be made with rotisserie chicken or other cooked poultry. This is a one-dish meal. It has the meat, vegetables and starch all in one and it takes only 25 minutes to make. If you like, open a washed ready-to-eat bag of salad to go with it.
Helpful Hints:
_ Use any type of sliced mushrooms.
_ Instead of a pie crust, you can just sprinkle the top of the pie with seasoned breadcrumbs.
_ If you don't have turkey leftovers, use any type of cooked turkey or chicken.
_ If your dried tarragon is over 6 months old or looks gray, it's time for a new bottle.
Countdown:
_ Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
_ Prepare pie ingredients.
_ Make pie.
