So it’s not the most original after-holiday leftover makeover, but at least I had fun with it. Mom suggested that I try her pie crust trick with the puff pastry… so what you see is (ahem) my (errr) interpretation of a turkey.

As for a recipe, it’s so basic it’s really not worth writing out… about 6 cups of diced cooked turkey, a 28-oz. can of large-cut mixed vegetables (carrots, potatoes, peas, celery, and pearl onions), drained, some sage and black pepper (can’t ever have enough of that!) tossed with about a cup or so of heavy cream (yeah, yeah, I know, I know, but it’s GOOD and it can’t be any worse for you than cream-of-whatever soup in a can with all those chemicals!) I made a regular pie crust for the bottom, and used one box of frozen puff pastry to make the top… and as you can see, did a pretty pitiful job of sealing the gap between sheets. Ahh, well. It was good, anyway!

I hope you & yours had a lovely holiday season! SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!!!
