Turkey Pot Pie
From: allrecipes.com

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 56
Ready In: 1 hour 26 minutes
Servings: 8

Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup muchrooms
1 TB minced garlic
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp dried sage
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1 1/2 cups prepared turkey gravy
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup milk
1 (14oz) package frozen mixed vegetables, thawed and drained
3 cups cooked turkey, cubed
Salt and ground pepper to taste, optional
1 pastry for a 10 inch double crust pie

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C)

2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onions, mushrooms and garlic; cook until tender, but not browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, sage and thyme until blended. Pour in the gravy, water, and milk, stirring to blend. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; cook 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the turkey and vegetables, and cook until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.

3. Line a 10 inch pie plate with the bottom crust. Pour in the turkey mixture. Cover with the top crust. Seal and crimp the edges. Pierce the top crust in a few places with a fork. Cover the edges of the pie with strips of aluminum foil.

4. Bake in a preheated oven for about 25 minutes. Remove foil strips, and bake until crust is golden, about 20 minutes more. Remove from oven, and rest 10 minutes before serving.
