Alice's French Canadian Meat Pie - Tourtiere image

This is my mother's recipe that she got from her mother, who was born in Montreal Canada. We have had these pies every Christmas since I was a little kid. It would not be Christmas in our family without mom's tourtieres! Thanks mom for the recipe and all the wonderful holidays you gave us over the years!

This tourtière was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I made a few changes to the recipe, but it still turned out great. I used ground turkey instead of pork, and I added some extra vegetables to the filling.
