Homemade turkey pot pie with puff pastry crust.
This was delicious. I roughly used a recipe from my Country Living magazine. Basically this is what you do:Saute onions in a little olive oil until nice and golden. Add diced carrots, sweet potato, and garlic. Saute for a few minutes. Add fresh parsley, zucchini, a little salt and pepper (any veggies you want really). Add 3 tablespoons of flour to the veggies and cook until the flour is light brown. Add a cup of milk, cup of chicken broth, tablespoon of Dijon mustard, tablespoon leftover turkey gravy (if you have it), and a dash of white wine. Cook until the sauce thickens. Add leftover turkey and fresh thyme. Spoon mixture into a pie plate or ramekins. I used two pie plates. Roll out your defrosted puff pastry dough and then cover the pie plates with it. Cook at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes or until it's bubbling and the puff pastry is golden brown and flaky.
Devour immediately at 4PM if you haven't had lunch that day. Eat the children's portions if they decide to give you the stink face or pretend like they aren't hungry (it WAS 4PM). Take them to the park and let them run then dish them up more pot pie when they come home hungry. Ignore their whines of dislike and stealthily get a bite in their mouth so they can realize it's actually delicious. Then watch them clean their plate. Proceed to finish off the second pot pie with your husband at 8PM.
