Pot Pies: Perfect for leftovers and cleaning out the fridge!

turkey pot pie

Tonight I made my first pot pie. I've had the inclination a number of times, but never got around to it -- there was always something else that grabbed my interest and tossed the pot pie aside. That certainly won't be happening again because this just about the best thing, aside from soup, for cleaning out your fridge and leftovers. (And it's an absolutely godsend for Thanksgiving, requiring all your leftovers -- turkey, bones for stock, celery, carrots...)

I took the Cheddar Pot Pie with Cheddar Biscuit Crust recipe from Epicurious, adapted the hell out of it so I wouldn't have to go to the store, and went to town. I used whatever vegetables I had laying in my fridge, as well as leftover old cheese and even some previously sauteed mushrooms added to the fresh ones. Once the flour and stock was added, the gravy came together in the blink of an eye. Meanwhile, the crust was quite forgiving, without perfectly measured butter, and subbing a lot of water and stock for the buttermilk I didn't have. (I forgot I was almost out of milk.)

You can see the result above. The taste is spot on, and would never make you think it's made from scraps and leftovers.

A different way to have Thanksgiving turkey, courtesy of Oprah

OprahWe've been giving you a ton of recipes for Thanksgiving, many of them involving turkey. Here's a recipe for Roasted Turkey Pot Pie with Cornbread Dressing - from Oprah Winfrey herself! It's from the TV Guide TV Celebrity Cookbook. It was published in 1994, and we all know that Oprah has gone through many diets and sizes since then, so who knows if she still eats this or not. Sounds good though.

Leftovers: Paula Deen does turkey pot pie, potato croquettes and pumpkin bars

smiling Paula DeenWe all know Paula Deen for her thick Southern accent, enthusiastic laugh and willingness to cook up recipes that incorporate 12 sticks of butter. Despite her occasional trips to the land of excess, she can often be depended on to offer up tasty recipes that can be cooked up quickly and without too much effort. Her Thanksgiving leftovers menu from this year is an example of her reliable cooking.

She's got you covered whether you want to make turkey pot pie (with butternut squash and cranberries cooked right in), potato croquettes (preferably cooked in peanut oil) or (because Paula never forgets dessert) pumpkin bars. If those recipes don't float your boat. If those recipes leave you cold, check out Michael Chiarello's Turkey Soup, George Duran's Turkey in a Cone or Ann Volkwein's upscale Thanksgiving in a Sandwich.

Banquet recalls frozen pot pies

Banquet pot pieIt's becoming very clear that we can't eat anything anymore. Just lock yourself in your home and make everything from scratch.

Banquet is recalling all of its frozen chicken and turkey pot pies after a salmonella outbreak made 100 people sick. The company that owns Banquet, ConAgra, even went so far as to completely stop making the pies yesterday while the cases are investigated.

Here's a little twist to this particular recall story: they're also telling consumers not to eat "similar generic brands." Yikes. Here's all the info on the recall, including what code numbers to look for and what to do if you want a refund.

Oddly enough, I'm posting a recipe for a chicken pot pie today.

Tip of the Day

Drying fruit is easy, mostly hands-off and yields a sweet and healthy snack.
