Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon butter divided
  • 8 ounces leftover turkey
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 ounce chopped onions
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon dried sage
  • ½ tablespoon flour
  • ½ cup low sodium turkey broth
  • 2 ounces peas and carrots or other thawed mixed vegetables
  • ¼ sheet prepared puff pastry
  • 1 egg whisked

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Melt ½ tablespoon of butter in a small skillet on medium heat. Add turkey to the skillet and heat until warmed through.
  • Add the remaining butter to the skillet and saute the chopped onions with garlic and dried sage for 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the flour and cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Pour in the turkey broth and scrape any bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low and simmer for 3 minutes.

  • Ladle the turkey pot pie filling into a 10-ounce oven safe ramekin or a 6-inch oven safe skillet.
  • Top with the puff pastry. Whisk egg and brush over the top of the pastry (optional). Cut 2 small slits in the puff pastry so heat can escape during the cooking process.
  • Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until puff pastry is golden.
