It’s a great way to turn leftover Thanksgiving turkey into a warm, comfort food meal. If stuffing (dressing) is your favorite part of Thanksgiving, you will love this Thanksgiving-style pot pie. The addition of a buttery pie crust takes the combined flavors of turkey and stuffing over the top.

  • If you don’t have turkey, chicken can be used for this recipe.
  • I use a refrigerated Pillsbury pie crust for ease and convenience, but you could use a homemade pie crust. I love this Flaky Pie Crust.

  • This recipe calls for Stovetop stuffing, but you could use any leftover stuffing or dressing. You want about 4 cups.
  • If using leftover stuffing, be sure it is plenty moist. It will dry out some in the oven.
  • Two boxes of Stovetop Stuffing is a little much for this pie, but I find 1 box is not enough. With 2 boxes, you will need to pile it pretty high which is totally ok with me since stuffing is practically my favorite thing.
  • If you really want to use up your Thanksgiving leftovers, try spreading a thin layer of mashed potatoes in the bottom of the pie crust.
  • The filling can be made a day in advance and then this pot pie is really easy to prep.
  • Leftovers will keep about 4 days in the refrigerator and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.

Ingredients

Equipment 9-inch Pie Plate, Medium Saucepan, Large Nonstick Skillet

Steps

  1. 1

    Fit pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Bring the water and butter to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in stuffing mix and set aside.

  3. 3

    In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and carrots and cook for about 5 minutes to soften.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle the flour over the onions and carrots. Stir and cook for 1 minute.

  5. 5

    Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk. Bring to a simmer and add the salt, pepper, thyme, and poultry seasoning.

  6. 6

    Simmer until mixture thickens. Stir in peas and turkey. Set aside.

  7. 7

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

  8. 8

    Transfer filling to pie crust. Mound stuffing on top. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until pie crust is golden. Check after about 30 minutes and if stuffing is getting too brown, loosely place foil on top of it.

  9. 9

    Let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Note: The stuffing and filling can be made a day in advance.

If you have leftover stuffing or dressing, you can use it instead of Stovetop. You will need about 4 cups.
