I’ve been all about comfort food this month and nothing says comfort like pie for dinner.
So let’s talk about these pies! I made them with ground turkey (obviously) and a mix of veggies that I can get almost everyone in my house to eat. I used broccoli, carrots, zucchini, and peas. Oh, and onions of course but that’s a given. Feel free to mix and match the veggies to your own taste. Any vegetable is going to taste good in a rich brothy stew that’s wrapped in pastry.
Now let’s talk about that crust. I have to admit that this is my first encounter with phyllo dough but it will not be my last. Who knew something could be so flaky and wonderful? I was so excited when we found it at the store because I didn’t think we could get it here.
It creates a slightly lighter option for these pies than a pie crust and it’s super easy too. That may be my favorite part of it. I spend plenty of time doing things the old-fashioned way but I have to admit that it’s nice to occasionally skip some steps and still achieve an amazing result. Trust me, I’ll still be rolling out pie crusts and spending all day making a bazillion tortillas because nothing beats homemade ones, but I can’t wait to try something else with phyllo. I’m thinking chocolate will be involved next time….what do you think?
Anyway, my brother seriously won’t stop talking about how much he loved these and that I have to make them again. He’s the one that thinks onions are life threatening and and gives you a deer-in-headlights stair if you expect him to eat a vegetable. Luckily I’ve gotten very good at hiding them. I’m not holding my breath that he will be eating salads anytime soon but we’re getting there.
And now I think I have said everything I wanted to about this recipe except that you must make it. You definitely should but I’ll leave that up to you. Maybe you’ll have more luck in resisting the powers of flaky pastry and warm turkey stew better than I can.
As always, the recipe is available upon request. The first request gets an upvote.

Ah Zucchini! Like the taste, hate the texture, unless it's chopped really small. Did you know we call then Courgettes over here in the UK?
I did not know that, or if I did, I forgot. Thanks for the support @movievertigo
In all the excitement I forgot to upvote the post! I've just done it now! :-)
Will you share the recipe with me dear?
Cheers
@progressivechef
This is great! Good thing about pie is that you can come up with a filling with whatever you have in your fridge pretty much, so versatile.
Thanks for the recipe @gringalicious :D lovely pictures as always
Definitely. It's super versatile @dontstopmenow!

omg that looks bloody insane!!!!!!
'Bloody insane,' I love it. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment @allasyummyfood. I know we are all super crazy busy
What a great idea, to use phyllo dough on pot pies! I usually find pot pie to be a bit too rich and heavy for me (you know, the type of food that makes you want to take a nap afterward), but this looks like it would be lighter with a better texture but still a great taste!
You might still want to take a nap - LOL. Fantastic commenting, really well done. Thanks so much @ceciliakeirstead
Thank you for posting! I love your food photo shoots :)
I love, like crazy love pot pies!
I know you do. Maybe someday soon I will make this for you @fullofhope
This looks so delicious!
Thanks @askaran.

Tastes hidden under the phyllo dough… it still looks suspiciously tasty @gringalicious 😊

Your posts are gorgeous! Well done
With love, another foodie 💓
I'm so glad you like this post @princessmewmew!
Are you from Brazil @gringalicious? Because this term (gringa) is very common here to designate people from outside the country. Anyway, your post was very good. I'm following you now. ..and follow me to know about Brazil and my ideas :) >> @renantg
Ahora que vi su perfil, es de chile. Coincidentemente voy a conocer a Santiago con mi novia en el mes que viene. jajaja.
Que bueno, mi amigo. Bien viaje!
Thanks for telling us how to make these wonderful pies love them as always
You're welcome, thanks @bigbear!
mmmm this pies look amazing. I love the rustic look and that piece of fabric for the pictures <3
It'll be cool if they puffed and then we can pop them hahaha
That's funny, thanks so much @tioluis
Wouldn't it be nice? like a souffle and then you get to the pie filling :P
Looks super tasty @gringalicious!! Bravo!
So glad you liked it @mayasky, thanks so much for commenting
The pies looks great, turkey is however not so popular here by us, I suppose chicken will work just as well.
Oh, of course, chicken would be fantastic. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment @rynow
Delicious I just want to make it myself ifonly I have the physical power.
Do you make the puff pastry for it?
No, in this case I used phillo dough. Thanks for commenting @cryptopie
Jealous of your access to phillo dough :) I've looked and looked and it's just not here, in Acapulco anyway.
Yeah, I know the feeling. When we first arrived in Chile, nothing. And, even today, very limited.
Ah, what a bummer. I've considered trying to make it myself but damn :O
Comfort food sounds great! I like having an odd comfort beer as well though :)
Thanks for the support, much appreciated ;)
Likewise @buzzbeergeek or as they say in Spanish, igualmente.
