Turkey Pot Pie with Stuffing Crust (Thanksgiving Casserole)

Turkey Pot Pie with a Filled Crust is a fun twist on a turkey pot pie made from cubed turkey and vegetables, cooked in a creamy sauce and topped with a filling.

Turkey pot pie with filling crust

This filled crust turkey pot pie is a great way to have your favorite Thanksgiving foods in one meal. It's also perfect for using leftover turkey. A mixture of turkey and vegetables in a creamy sauce is covered with filling and baked until the crust is golden. For some other ways to use Thanksgiving turkey, try my leftover turkey pot pie empanadas, open faced turkey melts, and baked turkey croquettes.

This recipe is a lighter twist on the traditional turkey pot with a fun twist. It's full of vegetables and lean turkey breast. To make the sauce creamy, I skip the milk and mix broth with cornstarch instead. And if you'd rather make a chicken pot pie, you can use leftover chicken as well. You can easily cut this recipe in half or in quarters depending on how much turkey leftovers you have.

How do you make turkey pot pie from scratch?

Make the filling by frying the vegetables and then adding them to the bread.
For the filling, fry fresh vegetables and herbs.
Add the frozen vegetables, turkey and broth and simmer for 10 minutes
Mix the remaining broth with cornstarch, add to the turkey mixture and stir until thick.
Pour the turkey filling into a 9 by 13 inch baking dish and cover with filling.
Bake for 30-45 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling is hot and bubbly.

The great thing about this turkey pot pie is that it's a whole meal in one: vegetables, protein, and carbohydrates all in one dish. To round off the meal, serve with a side salad and some cranberry sauce.
