TURKEY POTPIE

Turkey Potpie image

Family and guests rave about this hearty, comforting potpie and its light flaky crust. The "secret" crust ingredients are Parmesan cheese and instant mashed potato flakes. It's a great make-ahead dish. On busy days, I prepare this entree in the morning and just bake it in the evening. -Cheryl Arnold, Lake Zurich, Illinois
