O' Christmas Tree

Hello Ladies and a Happy Thansgiving to you and your families,

Here is another idea and a very easy one for those of you that haven't started your Christmas cards.  The card is an A2 the background is a red pearlized paper and the embossing folder is Couture Creations Fancy Christmas Tree with a white gossamer ribbon tied around the base.

As I promised last week, below is my recipe for a great Turkey Pot Pie.

Crust:
1 Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheet

Filling:
1/3 c butter or margarine
1/3 c chopped onion
1/3 c all-purpose flour
1/2 t salt
1/3 t Herbes de Provence
1/4 t pepper
1 c of chicken broth
1/2 c white wine
2/3 c milk
2 1/2 to 3 c shredded turkey or chicken
2 c of frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
1 egg & 1 t of water

Heat oven to 425 degrees F.  Thaw puff pastry out as directed on package.

Melt the butter in medium sauce pan over medium heat.  Add onion; cook 2 minutes or until tender.  Add the flour, salt, herbs de provence, pepper; stir until well blended about 2 minutes.  Gradually store in the wine, broth and milk, cooking and stirring until bubbly and thickened.

Add turkey and mixed vegetables; mix well.  Remove from heat.  Spoon turkey mixture into an oven safe dish, cover with the puff pastry.  Beat egg with teaspoon of water and brush over the puff pastry, this will give it a nice golden brown top to the puff pastry.

Bake at 425 F for 30 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown.  Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
