Turkey & Vegetable Pot Pie

Turkey Pot Pie

Do you have any turkey leftover in your freezer from Thanksgiving?  If you do, you are going to want to take it out and make this.  Its delicious!  Tender carrots and celery, earthy mushrooms, crisp salty pancetta and hearty turkey enveloped in a slightly creamy sauce and topped with a piece of flaky puff pastry.  Healthy, super flavorful and easy!

You can make this in a large casserole dish or in individual servings like we did.  Done individually, they would make a great main course to serve to guests with a green salad of some kind.

Turkey Pot Pie

Debbie and I both love pot pie and frankly, I don’t really know anyone who doesn’t.   We love it especially because you can disguise tons of veggies and lean protein as total comfort food.

We don’t really care for the pot pie that has pastry on the top AND the bottom.  While those are still very good, there is just too much pastry for our liking.   We like having one layer on top only as it still gives us all the flavor and that little bit of crunch, but without as many refined carbs and calories.

You gotta love puff pastry in a box.  It’s pretty much the only thing that is pre-made and comes in a box that I buy.  That and pasta.  Puff pastry is time consuming to make so the fact that you can buy it so easy is a definite plus.  Because of that, I can have this dinner on the table pretty quick.  Its a recipe that I can easily make when we have friends or family over for dinner on week days.  I love that too.   Enjoy!
