Leftover Turkey Enchilada Pot Pie

After Thanksgiving or Christmas, when the sides and desserts are long gone, but you're still left with a mountain of turkey meat, what do you do? Zazz it up into something completely different! This recipe is easy and quick, but full of flavor. If you can't eat 2 pies quickly enough, you can freeze 1/2 of the filling for another night. Even easier! Serve with a dollop of sour cream or fat-free Greek yogurt.

Original recipe (1X) yields 16 servings

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound chopped cooked turkey
1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles (such as RO*TEL®)
1 (10 ounce) can red enchilada sauce
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 pinch salt
4 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crusts, at room temperature

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease two 9-inch pie pans.
Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Add turkey, corn, beans, diced tomatoes, enchilada sauce, 1 cup Cheddar cheese, chili powder, cumin, and salt; cook and stir until well blended and warm, 2 to 3 minutes.
Place a pie crust in the bottom of each prepared pie pan. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of remaining Cheddar cheese into each. Gently add filling and spread evenly. Top each with a remaining pie crust, and fold and pinch around the edges to seal. Cut a few slits into the top crusts to release steam when baking.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 40 minutes. Cover the edges with aluminum foil if they begin to brown too much.

Cook's Note:

You can use shredded Mexican cheese instead of Cheddar.

Wisconsin Bratwurst

These Wisconsin brats are incredibly tasty! This is the only way to cook bratwurst in Wisconsin. If you can get fresh bratwurst from a sausage shop, do it — it is worth the extra cost. Serve with brown mustard on substantial hoagie rolls, never on hot dog buns. Mustard is important and must always be stone ground. Add warm sauerkraut and ketchup, if you like. Chow down!

Chicken Bhuna

Chicken bhuna is an Indian curry with delicious fried onions and aromatic herb and spices that tastes fantastic! Enjoy with freshly cooked basmati rice and naan bread.

Artichoke Chicken Casserole

This chicken artichoke casserole is great over orzo pasta with steamed broccoli or asparagus on the side. My husband and 4-year-old son love this recipe. We have it for dinner at least twice a month.

Surf and Turf

Surf and turf is a combination of seafood and steak. This restaurant-worthy recipe grills marinated shrimp and filet steaks for a deliciously simple way to make a special dinner. You probably have most of the ingredients for the shrimp marinade in your pantry already.

White Gazpacho

Cucumbers play the part of tomatoes in this bright blended soup and—with the help of grapes—lend a sweet, fresh flavor. Cashews provide body without adding dairy.
