Turkey & Stuffing Pie

Despite ending up with a larger turkey than ordered we did’t have enough turkey left to make a curry. We did have a lot of the sage and onion stuffing that was inside the bird so I decided to make a turkey and stuffing pie. We had leftover gravy on Christmas day so we’d frozen a pack of about 500ml which I go out of the freezer to go in the pie. Since this was very definitely leftover pie I decided to throw in some leftover cranberry sauce as well.

This pie was seriously delicious, it will be the first thing I make with leftovers next Christmas.

Serves 4 – 6 people.
