Turkey Pot Pie Recipe

With frozen puffed pastry, you can make a fancy turkey casserole in no time, a warm comforting meal after the football games over the weekend.

Ingredients
3 cups milk (whole, low-fat or fat-free)
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
6 cups chopped turkey meat
1 pound frozen mixed vegetables
1 (17-ounce) box frozen puffed pastry, thawed
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375F. Place milk in a large saucepan, set over medium heat, and whisk in flour until dissolved. Continue whisking over heat until thick and bubbling.
Whisk in Worcestershire sauce, mustard, thyme, onion powder, salt and pepper. Cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Stir in turkey and vegetables; pour into a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
Cover top of casserole with 2 sheets of puff pastry placed end-to-end and overlapped slightly in the middle; trim off any excess that hangs over edges. If desired, cut excess dough into patterns or designs with cookie cutters and lay on top of pastry.
Bake about 50 minutes or until top is browned and puffed and filling is bubbling. Let stand at room temperature 5 minutes before serving. Serves 6.
