Brenda's Turkey Pie

By Gazelle

I make these pies every year for the Holidays, and they are a HIT!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter
• 2 cups chopped celery
• 2 cups chopped onions
• 2 cups chopped celery
• 1/2 cup flour and 2 to 3 tbsp chicken soup base
• 2 to 2 1/2 cups milk (more if no gravy)
• 1 can turkey gravy
• 1 tsp ground savory (if you don't like use another spice)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 4 to 6 cups chicken or turkey cooked and chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Melt butter in heavy pot, fry the next three vegetables until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add flour and stir well and cook for a few minutes, add milk gradually to make a cream sauce, stirring all the time.
Cook for a few minutes, add seasonings and chicken or turkey and gravy (if using).
Bake in double crust at 425 degrees for 10 minutes , lower oven to 375 and continue baking for 20 to 25 minutes or until cooked though.
