Turkey Pot Pie is one of my kids’ favorite dinners ever, and if you ask them, they would say I don’t make this recipe enough.
Two years ago I wanted to come up with a dairy-free pot pie filling for my sister, and I wanted to make it without cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup. We are done buying cream of … soups. Now I need it dairy-free, too!
This recipe is even healthier because I don’t put a top crust on.
The Verdict: This is a great Thanksgiving leftover, and I always like to make two pot pies in order to save time, and money. I will throw in leftover mashed potatoes, the shredded turkey, and a little stuffing, too! This is a versatile and flexible recipe.
You might have a little filling left over, which is great to make mini pot pies. The kids LOVE having their own individual pies!!
