Homemade Chicken Or Turkey Pot Pie

We usually make this with chicken, but if you have leftover turkey after the holidays, it tastes wonderful prepared that way too!

This is always a favorite with anyone who gives it a try. This batch is perfect for 6 servings, but you can double the recipe and use a 4 quart baking dish for a crowd!

Pot pie is such an amazing comfort food. With the weather in Minnesota being SO cold this time of year, recipes like this defintely hit the spot.

I just love the flavor the dried thyme adds to the creamy sauce. All these flavors are so simple, but the combo of them all together makes your mouth water!
