Steps:
- In a medium skillet, melt butter and add carrots, potatoes, onion and celery. Cook, stirring often, over medium heat, until nearly tender, about 10-15 minutes.
- Stir in garlic, salt, parsley, thyme and pepper and cook for 1 minute.
- Stir in flour until no white can be seen.
- Add turkey, broth, and peas. Simmer over medium heat until gravy has thickened to your liking and vegetables are tender. This is a great time to taste test and adjust seasonings.
- Pour into a lightly greased pie plate and top with puff pastry. Trim puff pastry along the inside of the pie plate or dish you are using -- this is important for even cooking!
- Whisk together egg and water and brush over top of puff pastry (not all of it will be used -- this step can be omitted).
- Bake at 400 degrees F for 30-40 minutes, until puff pastry is golden brown. Serve.

TURKEY POTPIE
No one knows when people started making pies, but they were common in medieval Middle Eastern and European cooking. "The Oxford Companion to Food" speculates that the English word may come from the word "magpie," because magpies collect random items in the way a pie often houses varied ingredients. It's appropriate, then, that this pie is here to accommodate your Thanksgiving leftovers: turkey, of course, but also leftover roasted squash or sautéed mushrooms in place of peas, chop up half a rutabaga instead of carrot and celery, or a stray leek or shallot instead of onion. Any fresh soft herbs can go in the biscuit topping. For an even simpler version, use canned biscuits arranged on top of the filling as the crust, or defrosted puff pastry with a vent cut in the middle. For a more assertive flavor, use the larger amount of mustard.

Steps:
- Make the biscuit dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the cold chunks of butter and toss to coat. Using your fingers, pinch, smear and squeeze the butter into the flour until the butter pieces are the size of a penny or the size of a pea. There's no need for perfection, but the butter should be evenly distributed throughout the flour, and each butter bit should be coated in flour. Stir in the chives and herbs. Pour the buttermilk into the mixture and mix it briefly and gently with a fork, just until a shaggy dough forms. Cover and put the dough in the refrigerator while you make the filling.
- Make the filling: Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In an oven-safe 10-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season lightly with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and shrunken, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic, carrot and celery, and cook, stirring, until fragrant and slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and the onion powder, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour is completely incorporated with the vegetables, about 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken broth, mustard, Worcestershire and lemon juice, and cook, whisking, until the mixture comes to a bubble. Let it cook, whisking once or twice, until it thickens to lightly coat the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes. Stir in the turkey and the peas. Season generously with black pepper; taste and season with additional salt if desired. Remove pan from the heat.
- Evenly scatter the biscuit dough over the top of the filling, in golfball-size clumps. (Don't press or roll the dough into neat balls, which can make the biscuits tough.) Put the skillet on a foil-lined sheet pan to catch any drips and bake in the oven until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are lightly browned, 35 minutes. (If using canned biscuits or puff pastry, the cook time will be closer to 25 minutes. Check the package directions for a guide.)

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Place the peas and carrots, green beans, and celery into a saucepan; cover with water, bring to a boil, and simmer over medium-low heat until the celery is tender, about 8 minutes. Drain the vegetables in a colander set in the sink, and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in 2/3 cup of flour, salt, black pepper, celery seed, onion powder, and Italian seasoning; slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens. Remove from heat; stir the cooked vegetables and turkey meat into the filling until well combined.
- Fit 2 pie crusts into the bottom of 2 9-inch pie dishes. Spoon half the filling into each pie crust, then top each pie with another crust. Pinch and roll the top and bottom crusts together at the edge of each pie to seal, and cut several small slits into the top of the pies with a sharp knife to release steam.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the crusts are golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. If the crusts are browning too quickly, cover the pies with aluminum foil after about 15 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to your pot pie. Some good options include carrots, celery, peas, and potatoes.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
- Use a good quality broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pot pie. If you don't have any homemade broth, you can use a store-bought brand that is low in sodium.
- Season your pot pie to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to your liking.
- Don't overfill the pot pie crust. You want to leave some room for the filling to bubble up and expand.
- Bake the pot pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
- Let the pot pie cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set and prevent it from spilling out.
Conclusion:
Make-ahead turkey pot pie is a delicious and easy meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. With a little planning, you can have a delicious and comforting meal on the table in no time.
