After reading reviews I added flour/milk mixture to thicken. Wasnt sure how much to thicken. It was still runny after baking. As is, it was like a soup with mash potatoes as a thickening base. I had added garlic powder, pepper and salted it up so the taste was ok, definitely a 50's basic casserole taste. I drained off the liquid and it became more of a casserole. My teens liked it but I would definitely cut back liquid and thicken it up more like a pot pie instead of soupy.

Well here's what I did based on the previous reviews. Instead of chicken stock I used Turkey gravey. I can already tell by the way it looks in the oven that there is just too much liquid. However, I tasted the batch before it went in and it was good. If it doesn't ruin the mashed potato topping I'd make it again with even less liquid. But all in all a solid dish for your lweftovers.

Totally bland, and the timing was off on the cook time. Was super runny/yucky at 15 minutes, and the carrots were still really firm. I baked for an extra 20 minutes, and still was unimpressed. The flavor wasn't bad, just wasn't much. Of anything. On the other hand, my two kids 3 & under ate it up. That just proves it was bland, IMO. : I'd keep looking if I were you, but it did use up a lot of leftovers without hardly any prurchases. .

This was delicious and super easy. I added the leftover stuffing as another reviewer suggested and cannot imagine the dish without it. I also added some mushrooms, corn and substituted green beans for peas because that is what I had. It did turn out a bit too runny, so I would cut down on some of the chicken broth or try adding cornstarch as another reviewer suggests next time. It was like Thanksgiving dinner in one bite that got rave reviews at my house. Definitely saving this recipe!

We loved this recipe! Didn't have chicken broth so I used veggie broth, and it was wonderful. Saving this one to use with other leftover meats. Thumbs up!

The whole family loved it! I followed the directions and the result was great. I guess the sucess depends on the flavor of the leftover Turkey. Ours was really good, so was the pie. I would make it again.

I def took comments from previous reviews by adding the cornstarch to thicken the piece. I also added fresh green beans instead of peas. Added a layer of leftover stuffing then mashed potatoes....it was soooo yummy. When serving we topped with leftover gravy - delicious! SO worth it with little effort. A holiday days later keeper! Enjoy!

As suggested I added cornstarch to thicken sauce. I wished the potatoes had a nice crust. Result was gobbled up anyway, pun intended.

I read the comments first so I was prepared for a slightly soupy mixture. I added a small amount of stuffing mix, stirred and finally added about a cup of gravy - mixed all. Great consistency and couldn't be easier.
