Grandma Carlson's Turkey Pot Pie

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked turkey, shredded
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, and green beans)
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 3/4 cups chicken broth
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 package refrigerated pie crusts (or make your own)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the flour, salt, pepper, and onion powder, mixing to create a roux. Cook for about 2 minutes until bubbly.
  3. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add the shredded turkey and frozen mixed vegetables to the pot. Stir well to combine, allowing the mixture to heat through. Remove from heat.
  5. Lay one pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate, pressing it firmly against the bottom and sides.
  6. Pour the turkey and vegetable mixture into the crust, spreading it evenly.
  7. Top with the second pie crust, sealing the edges by crimping with your fingers or a fork. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Keep an eye on the edges; you can cover them with foil if they brown too quickly.
  9. Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. This helps the filling set a bit.

Serve warm and enjoy the hearty flavors and wonderful aromas that will fill your home. This Turkey Pot Pie is sure to be a crowd-pleaser!
