Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 pound Turkey
• 1 cup Carrots
• 1 cup Peas
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 clove Garlic
• 4 tablespoon Butter
• ¹⁄₄ cup All-purpose flour

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

7. In a medium bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
8. Stir in the buttermilk until just combined.
9. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough onto the turkey mixture in the pie dish.
10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
11. Let the pot pie rest for 10 minutes before serving.
