1 package of pie crusts thawed

1/3 cup butter or margarine

1/3 cup chopped onion

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 can (14 oz) chicken broth

1/2 cup milk

2 1/2 cups shredded cooked turkey

Heat oven to 425. In sauce pan melt butter add onion and cook until tender. Add flour, salt and pepper and stir well. Gradually add milk and broth until it gets thick and bubbly. Add veggies and turkey. Line pie pan with crust, pour in filling and then top with additional crust. Bake for about 30 minutes.


Of course you can use fresh of everything. Pie crusts are easy to make and I encourage you to make them yourself.

Leftovers? I want to cook another bird, because I've run out.

Politely avoid it until trash day and look forward to cooking pork again next weekend.

I like the sammies
We make a Gobbler- layer turkey, mash potatoes, stuffing and cranberry
Great to put in freezer and pull out and reheat it

+1 on the goulash and pot pies. Huge fan of both.

Got this recipe in an email from Thermoworks for Turkey Chili. I have not tried it yet, but it looks good.

Turkey soup, started it today by simmering the carcas and any remaining meat with bay leaves and s&p for about 1 1/2 hr this morning. Cut up 3 stalks of celery and 2 pounds of carrots while waiting for it to cool enough to pick the bones out. Will then put in the carrots and celery and cutup 5 ponds red potatoes and add. When that gets done then a bag of cut okra and a handfull of parsley flakes. When the okra is done its time to eat.

I've been making Turkey Burritos, with Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green chile, cilantro and cheese.

I'm with you on the sammiches but use lettuce in place of the tomaters. :-D

Ya beat me to it, that's about what I was going to say.

I've made egg rolls before. Roll the turkey, stuffing and mashed taters into an egg roll wrapper, then deep fry. Make a dipping sauce with the cranberry sauce. Good stuff!

P.s. You can do the same thing with leftover pie too
