Hey everyone! Sorry it has been so long. I've been doing a little cake project, and testing my mad decorating skills. I will share some cake pics with you soon.
I have a great dish to share today. It is perfect for the cold weather that is rapidly approaching us! I found this turkey pot pie recipe from Pillsbury, and it is one of the best comfort foods ever! I don't even really like turkey that much, but this has converted me to at least enjoying it on occasion. This would also be a great dish to make right after Thanksgiving to give you some serious Black Friday energy!
I used a ready-made pie crust. Shame on me, but honestly it turns out perfectly every time. Place in a 9-inch glass pie plate.
Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add some onion and cook for about two minutes, stirring frequently.
Stir in flour, salt, and pepper until well blended. Then gradually stir in the broth and milk, cooking until thickened and bubbly.
Stir in turkey and frozen mixed veggies. Remove from heat. Spoon into crust-lined pie plate. Top with second crust and seal edges. Cut slits in top of pie.
Bake at 425 degrees F for 30-40 minutes or until crust is golden. When pie is halfway done, cover edges with foil to prevent too much browning. Let cool. Voila! You just made pot pie!
