**Gobble It Up Pot Pie**
**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups cooked turkey, shredded or diced
– 1 cup carrots, diced
– 1 cup peas
– 1 cup corn
– 1 medium onion, chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 4 tablespoons butter
– 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 cups chicken broth
– 1 cup milk
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 package store-bought pie crusts (2 crusts)
– 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or non-stick spray.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and cook until they are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Stir in the carrots, peas, and corn, and cook for a few minutes until they begin to soften.
5. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetable mixture and stir well to coat. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
6. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and then the milk, making sure there are no lumps. Allow the mixture to simmer and thicken, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes.
7. Add the shredded turkey to the skillet and season the mixture with salt, pepper, and dried thyme. Stir well to combine.
8. Roll out one of the pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Carefully place it into the prepared pie dish, pressing it down gently along the bottom and up the sides.
9. Pour the turkey and vegetable filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly.
10. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the top of the filling. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges of the crusts together to seal.
11. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
12. Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to create a golden, shiny finish.
13. Place the pot pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
14. Allow the pot pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy the warm and comforting flavors of this homemade pot pie with your loved ones.
